Occlusal Rehabilitation
Improve the function of your natural teeth.
Occlusion is the way our teeth meet when our lower and upper jaw come together. We often simply refer to occlusion as the “bite”.
When our bite is right, our joints sit in its natural resting position and the muscles in jaws are in a relaxed state. However, changes in this harmony such as tooth erosion, bruxism (tooth grinding), or decay may cause damage to our bite.
Occlusal damage not only impacts the aesthetics of our teeth, but it may also potentially put a strain on our phonetics, cause headaches, discomfort and chewing problems.
Your dentist may recommend an occlusal rehabilitation to re-establish the correct vertical dimension of your bite. Vertical dimension is the distance between the nose and the chin. This treatment will significantly improve the longevity and function of your natural teeth and restorations.
Benefits of occlusal rehabilitation
- protects our TMJ (temporomandibular joint)
- protects our teeth from chipping or breaking
- prevents further erosion or abrasion
- promotes ease in chewing, swallowing, and speech
