Oral Rehabilitation of the
3 MAIN FUNCTIONS
of the Stomatognathic Apparatus*
*Set of hard (bone-teeth and joints) and soft structures (muscles, ligaments, vessels, nerves, mucosa and skin) that make up this portion of the face and head, responsible for chewing, phoning or speaking, aesthetics and mimicry).
MASTIGATORY FUNCTION
(Chewing)
PHONETIC FUNCTION
(Speech)
AESTHETIC FUNCTION
(Smile and Facial Expression)
HOW WE ACHIEVE REHABILITATION
DESTARTARIZATION of visible and undetectable tartar for the patient, creation of a daily hygiene protocol and teachings.
EXTRACTION of dental parts without the possibility of being reconstructed.
REORGANIZATION of the remaining dental parts, if applicable (orthodontic appliances).
REPLACEMENT of missing dental parts through:
Total or partial removable prostheses, traditional prostheses that can be placed and removed by the user
Fixed prostheses, which can be placed on natural teeth, when these are your support for their support, or on implants. In the case of fixed prostheses on implants, they are based on metallic devices (implants), similar to dental roots, which are inserted in the upper and / or lower jaw bone and behave like natural dental roots.
WHAT IT DOES WITH REHABILITATION
SUSTAINABILITY of your oral health over time
MINOR NUMBER OF PROBLEMS of your Oral Health to be solved throughout your life, providing for a hygiene consultation and evaluation every 6 months, in most cases
Screening for diseases of the
Oral Cavity and its Attachments
(tongue, tonsils, maxillary sinuses and oropharynx)
BENIGN, PRE-MALIGNAL OR MALIGAN PATHOLOGIES: Within these pathologies we highlight malignant diseases, namely squamous cell carcinoma and ameloblastoma, with very high mortality rates, especially when diagnosed late, that is, when the patient already seeks the Dentist, referring painful symptoms.
HOW TO ACHIEVE ORAL CHECK
A first consultation, accompanied by a panoramic radiograph **, are essential and mandatory, in order to guarantee, with great probability, that the patient’s health conditions allow us to treat him without risk to his own life.
** It is an x-ray that visualizes the alveolodental arches, upper and lower jaws, joints of the stomatognathic system, maxillary sinuses, upper airways (nose) and the entire zygomatic and malar zone.
