Cancer treatments, both radiation and chemotherapy, can damage the teeth and gums, including the jawbone. Dental rehabilitation is the process of restoring oral health and function, so a person can eat, speak, and smile with confidence following cancer therapy. Dental Rehabilitation is a multidisciplinary effort that includes several healthcare providers, including a dentist, a <a href=\"https:\/\/chiragchamria.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">dental specialist<\/a>, an oral surgeon, a speech-language pathologist, and a nutritionist. It may include the use of removable dental appliances such as a removable partial denture, a removable dental bridge, or a set of removable dentures to replace teeth lost during cancer treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/royalimplant.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/34693cf1-0a8f-4824-b334-e62908da8ea8-900x900.jpg\" alt=\"peek framework\" class=\"wp-image-5303\" width=\"575\" height=\"575\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-vivid-cyan-blue-color has-text-color wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-why-do-you-need-dental-rehabilitation\">Why do you need Dental Rehabilitation?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As we\u2019ve discussed above, dental rehabilitation is something you should seriously consider if you\u2019ve been diagnosed with oral cancer. You should do this even if you\u2019ve only had one or two teeth removed, as you will likely need a denture or some other form of <a href=\"http:\/\/SAPTeeth.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">dental prosthetic <\/a>to replace those teeth. And if you\u2019ve had more teeth removed, you may need one or two implants as well. In other words, dental rehabilitation is a must if you\u2019ve had cancer on your mouth. The sooner you start the rehabilitation process, the easier it will be. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio is-horizontal is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-7d812b4c wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-text-color has-background\" href=\"tel:+919820446633\" style=\"border-radius:2px;background-color:#ba0c49;color:#fffffa\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Call Now<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button is-style-outline is-style-outline--3\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-text-color\" href=\"https:\/\/royalimplant.com\/enquiry5\/?utm_source=blogs&amp;utm_medium=organic&amp;utm_campaign=5%20foods%20that%20make%20your%20kids%20teeth%20stronger\" style=\"border-radius:2px;color:#ba0c49\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Get In Touch<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Waiting until you\u2019ve finished all your cancer treatments could lead to difficult decisions about your future dental health. Dental rehabilitation is not just about restoring your teeth to their former health and appearance. It is also about improving your oral health, preventing future oral diseases, and maintaining your self-confidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-wp-embed is-provider-royal-dental-clinics-blog wp-block-embed-royal-dental-clinics-blog\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"Xf6zyEqOKl\"><a href=\"https:\/\/royalimplant.com\/blogs\/shock-absorbable-permanent-teeth-in-one-day\/\">Shock Absorbable Permanent Teeth in One Day<\/a><\/blockquote><iframe class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; clip: rect(1px, 1px, 1px, 1px);\" title=\"&#8220;Shock Absorbable Permanent Teeth in One Day&#8221; &#8212; Royal Dental Clinics Blog\" src=\"https:\/\/royalimplant.com\/blogs\/shock-absorbable-permanent-teeth-in-one-day\/embed\/#?secret=RQiRaQsnR8#?secret=Xf6zyEqOKl\" data-secret=\"Xf6zyEqOKl\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-vivid-cyan-blue-color has-text-color wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-timing-of-dental-rehabilitation\">Timing of Dental Rehabilitation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The sooner you start the dental rehabilitation process, the better your outcome will be. Ideally, you should start the process before your cancer treatment begins, although this is rarely possible or necessary. If you have not yet started treatment, you will have your dentist fill out a dental care plan that will tell you how you need to take care of your mouth before, during, and after cancer treatment. If you are in the middle of cancer treatment, then you should start exploring dental rehabilitation options with your <a href=\"https:\/\/chiragchamria.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">dentist<\/a>. You will likely need to wait until you\u2019ve finished your cancer treatments before you can get any dental work done, which means that you should start looking into dental rehabilitation sooner rather than later.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/royalimplant.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/PEEK-3-900x700.jpg\" alt=\"peek in dentistry\" class=\"wp-image-7357\" width=\"373\" height=\"290\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-vivid-cyan-blue-color has-text-color wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-your-guide-to-dental-rehabilitation\">Your Guide to Dental Rehabilitation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before we dive into the specifics of <a href=\"https:\/\/royalimplant.com\/services\/dental-implant-zygomatic\/\">dental rehabilitation<\/a>, it is important to note that the process can be overwhelming.

Your dental team is there to help you every step of the way and will do everything in their power to make the process as painless and easy as possible for you. During the process, you will likely have to make some difficult decisions about your dental health and appearance.
