Education, Training, and Service Background


Dr. Jackie Johns, DMD has a strong academic and clinical foundation. He graduated from Texas College with a bachelor’s degree in Biology and Chemistry. He earned a master’s degree in Biochemistry from Prairieview University. He then earned his Doctorate from Rutgers University School of Dental Medicine.

After dental school, Dr. Johns completed a one-year residency at the VA Hospital in West Palm Beach, FL. His professional background also includes service as a Captain in the U.S. Army.

This combination of science, clinical training, military service, and decades of dental experience helps shape his approach to patient care. He values preparation, precision, clear communication, and practical treatment planning.

A Practical Approach to Complete Dental Care


At Complete Dental Care at JFK, patients are not treated like a chart or a procedure. Dr. Johns takes time to understand what brought you in, what concerns you have, and what result you want from treatment.

Some patients want to get out of pain. Some want to replace missing teeth. Some need a second opinion about implants, dentures, or root canals. Others simply want to get back on track with preventive care after years away from the dentist.

Dr. Johns helps patients by focusing on four simple priorities:

Find the source of the problem

Explain the condition in clear language

Review the treatment options

Create a plan that fits the patient’s needs

This approach is especially helpful for patients who feel nervous about dental care, patients who have had past dental problems, and patients who need more advanced treatment.
