RNO – Functional rehabilitation and modern dentistry
RNO (Rehabilitation of Natural Occlusion) focuses on restoring the functional harmony between teeth, jaw joints, and chewing muscles. The goal is to reestablish a balanced bite and improve the function of the entire chewing system.
Functional problems can arise from misaligned teeth, uneven bite pressure, or jaw joint strain. With targeted RNO treatment, stability and comfort in the bite can be improved.
