Counter the Effects of Traumatic Dental Injuries with Oral Rehabilitation

Although teeth are quite strong, they’re not indestructible. A car accident or clash on the sports field can leave you with chipped, cracked, broken, or even missing teeth. Through oral rehabilitation, Dr. Brad Sievert can counter the effects of traumatic dental injuries to restore your smile’s function and appearance. You can learn more about dental rehabilitation at Westlake Family Dentistry in Lake Oswego, Oregon.

Who Can Benefit from Oral Rehabilitation? 

Oral rehabilitation is for individuals dealing with multiple dental issues that compromise their oral and overall health. Dental rehabilitation focuses on repairing these issues to eliminate pain and restore your smile. 

Here are some of the problems oral rehabilitation can fix:

• Chipped, fractured, or broken teeth
• Tooth decay 
• Tooth loss
• Crooked or misaligned teeth
• Stained or discolored teeth
• Periodontal disease

Dental Procedures Used for Oral Rehabilitation

Oral rehabilitation isn’t a one-size-fits-all treatment, as everyone has unique dental needs. For this reason, we customize our treatments to achieve the results you desire. To restore fractured or broken teeth, we may use dental crowns. Dr. Sievert may recommend dental implants, dentures, or bridges for tooth loss. Clear aligner therapy can correct misalignment issues, while teeth whitening eliminates stains and discolorations to make your pearly whites white again.

Other procedures include:

• Dental veneers to conceal minor tooth flaws and improve your smile’s esthetics
• Composite fillings for cavity treatment
• Root canal treatment to restore severely decayed teeth 
• Deep cleaning and periodontal therapy to treat receding gums and restore gum health 
• Dental extractions to keep oral infections from spreading

Make Your Smile Whole and Healthy Again

The overall goal of dental rehabilitation is to make your smile healthy and whole again. Repairing and restoring your teeth helps retain your smile’s natural beauty. Although teeth can be replaced, keeping your natural smile intact can be more cost-effective than replacing most or all of your teeth in the future.
