Rebuilding a mouth, together.

Q: How much does full mouth rehabilitation cost?

It varies more than any other treatment, because it depends on how many teeth are involved and whether implants are needed. Guide fees for the individual items, such as crowns from £1,250 and implants from £1,500, give a sense of scale. You receive an exact written figure after assessment, and finance is available for treatment up to £30,000, subject to status.

Full mouth rehabilitation rebuilds most or all of the teeth in a mouth that has been worn, broken or lost over the years, as a single coordinated plan rather than a series of repairs. At Sardinia House in Holborn it is planned digitally by more than one clinician and carried out in stages over several months. Every case is quoted in writing after assessment; the new patient assessment is £125.

Who it is for

When one plan is kinder than many repairs

Teeth worn short over the years

Grinding, acid and time flatten edges and shorten front teeth until the face loses height and the smile hides behind the lip. Rebuilding one tooth at a time cannot restore that; the whole bite needs opening and redesigning together.

A mouth of old, failing dentistry

Crowns from different decades, fillings patched over fillings and teeth that chip in turn. When repairs are coming faster than they used to, one considered plan is usually kinder and more economical than another decade of emergencies.

Missing teeth and a collapsing bite

When several teeth have gone, the rest drift, tip and over-erupt into the gaps, and chewing shifts onto whatever is left. Implants, bridges and crowns planned as one restore a stable bite before the remaining teeth are damaged by the load.

Jaw ache, headaches and broken teeth

A bite that no longer meets evenly overworks some teeth and the muscles that drive them. Part of a rehabilitation is finding a jaw position the muscles are comfortable in, then building the teeth to fit it.

The difference

What makes the difference

Designed on screen before a tooth is touched

Scans, photographs and a CBCT image are combined into a digital design of your finished mouth. Digital Smile Design places the new teeth on a photograph of you, and a trial smile lets you wear the shape in your mouth before any of it is fixed.

More than one clinician on the plan

Our dentists plan these cases together, with Dr Amit Patel and Dr Adam White bringing their restorative experience, Dr Shivan Dave drawn in for implants and Dr Spencer Richman for root canal work where needed. The plan is discussed at our peer-review sessions, and one lead clinician keeps every stage in order.

Made here, and by master ceramists

Same-day ceramic work is milled on site with CEREC. Layered crowns, veneers and bridges are made by master ceramists off site, in the UK and abroad, and provisional teeth are printed or milled here in the meantime, so that, wherever we can, you do not leave without a tooth.

Someone minding the plan between visits

A rehabilitation runs over months. Our treatment coordinators hold the schedule, the finance arrangements and your questions between appointments, and front-of-house staff who have known patients for years keep the diary moving without you having to chase.

The process

The process, in stages

Assessment

A full examination with scans, photographs, X-rays and, where needed, a CBCT image. We record how your jaw moves and how your teeth meet, and listen carefully to what bothers you and what you would like to change.

Diagnosis and design

The clinicians study the records together and work out why the damage happened, because rebuilding without addressing the cause will not last. The finished result is then designed digitally and shown to you on screen.

A written plan, in stages

You receive a plan setting out each phase, the order of treatment, the clinicians involved and the exact fee for every item. Nothing starts until you have read it and your questions have been answered.

Foundations first

Gum health, any root canal treatment, extractions and implant placement come before the visible work, so the new teeth are built on a stable base. Temporary restorations let you test the new bite as we go.

The final teeth

Crowns, veneers, bridges and implant teeth are made on site or by our ceramists and fitted in the planned sequence. The bite is checked and refined over a few visits, and a night guard is usually made to protect the finished work.

Afterwards

Aftercare

A rebuilt mouth needs looking after like any other, with more at stake. We see you for reviews in the first months to fine-tune the bite, then at regular check-ups and hygiene visits. A night guard, worn as advised, protects the new teeth from the grinding that often caused the damage in the first place. Treated well, the work can be expected to serve you for many years.

Good to know

The questions we are asked most

How much does full mouth rehabilitation cost?+

The fee varies more than for any other treatment, since it turns on the number of teeth and whether implants are part of the plan. Guide fees for the individual items, such as crowns from £1,250 and implants from £1,500, give a sense of scale. You receive an exact written figure after assessment, and finance is available for treatment up to £30,000, subject to status.

How long does it take?+

Most rehabilitations run over several months, and those involving implants can take closer to a year because of healing time. The visits are spaced out and planned in advance, so you know the shape of the whole programme from the start.

Is it painful?+

Each stage is carried out under local anaesthetic, and sedation with our dental sedationist is available for longer sessions. Some tenderness after the bigger appointments is normal and usually settles within days. A new bite can feel unfamiliar for a week or two before it becomes your own.

Will I be without teeth at any point?+

No. Provisional crowns, bridges or dentures are printed or milled on site so you have a full set of teeth throughout. They also let you test the new bite and the look of the teeth before the final work is made, and we adjust the design if anything needs changing.

Can the treatment be spread out?+

Yes. The plan is written in phases, and foundations such as gum treatment and implants can be done first with the visible work following when it suits you. Spreading the stages also spreads the cost, and finance is available subject to status.

Will I have to see several different dentists?+

You may, since implants, root canal work and the restorative dentistry are each done by the clinician who leads that area. You will not have to manage it: one lead clinician coordinates the plan, and our treatment coordinators hold the diary and the paperwork.

Why have this done in Holborn?+

Sardinia House has been treating patients for 45 years, and planning complex cases with more than one clinician is how we work. The scanners, CBCT, 3D printers and CEREC mill are all on one floor on Lincoln's Inn Fields, so the planning and the making happen in the same place.
