What is Oral Rehabilitation?
It is responsible for the restoration of teeth. It restores aesthetic function and oral harmony by means of dental prosthesis or crowns. There are different types of prosthesis, ranging from a single tooth, to a complete prosthesis above and below. This is a more economical type of alternative treatment that replaces dental implants, but it has its limitations and its duration depends on the patient's care.
Types of treatments
There are several types of treatments among them are:
Fixed prostheses
They are an appliance made to fit the mouth. It consists of one or several dental pieces that are placed to replace the loss of teeth. This prosthesis cannot be removed since it is anchored with dental implants to the jawbone or glued to teeth.
Removable partial dentures
They are a structure that can be removed from the mouth, this prosthesis replaces one or more teeth. The disadvantage of this prosthesis is that since it is removable, the patient can lose or damage it when removing it and not leave it properly stored.
Prosthesis on implants: It is a prosthesis that goes over the previous placement of dental implants, this prosthesis replaces one or more teeth, depending on the case. This prosthesis goes from a crown + implant, to fixed prosthesis in which it replaces all the teeth. For this we have:
Total prosthesis
The total prosthesis is a removable structure in charge of the replacement for the total loss of teeth, either upper or lower. This prosthesis can be fixed or removable, it all depends on the patient's choice.
Dental crowns and implant-supported crowns
Dental crowns are placed over a tooth or dental implant, which is a false tooth made of different materials that replaces the lost or damaged tooth, giving the function of a normal tooth.
Veneers
Dental veneers are thin pieces of Dental Resin, Ceromer, Porcelain or Zirconium, which cover the tooth to achieve an aesthetic result. This is more useful for damage that was generated by blows or smile designs.
Benefits
Oral rehabilitation restores masticatory, esthetic and harmonic functions of the teeth, changing the patient's life and improving self-esteem. It also contributes to health and basic functions such as eating and speaking.
