Oral Rehabilitation in Sparks, NV

Oral rehabilitation or full mouth rehabilitation is often required in many individuals. One of the primary reasons for considering full mouth rehabilitation is the presence of multiple dental problems like missing or broken teeth, discolored teeth, pain in the jaw joints, unexplained pain in the oral region, headaches, multiple cavities, improper bite pattern and inability to chew efficiently.

In many cases the dental needs are often ignored until the problems become severe. Improper fillings or changes in the bite pattern following abnormal wear of teeth can often lead to unexplained pain in the jaws. Many people suffer from bruxism (a disorder causing you to grind your teeth while asleep https://ringandfitness.com/meds/ambien-online/) which causes pain in the jaw joints. Many others may not be able to bite, chew or talk properly due to multiple missing teeth.  A thorough dental examination is performed in such cases to completely evaluate the dental problems and form a treatment plan.

REHABILITATION PLANS

Treatment may range from simple fillings to the use of specialized devices to change the bite pattern.  During the full mouth rehabilitation program the dental needs are evaluated by a team of multispecialty dentists who form a detailed treatment plan. The teeth and muscle functions are evaluated with the use of computerized scanning machines. Impressions of the teeth and recordings of the biting pattern may be taken to simulate the jaw movements and check for abnormalities.  Once planned, the treatment is initiated. This may involve a series of treatment procedures involving cleaning of your teeth, insertion of veneers, implants, selective grinding of existing teeth and replacement of crowns or dentures.  Orthotic devices may also be advised to change your bite pattern to a more comfortable one.  Additionally, muscle relaxation therapies such as TENS may also be suggested.
