Dentures

A dental prosthesis is a tooth or a set of teeth that replaces a missing, damaged, or absent tooth.

Our teams of practitioners at Dental Clinic are here to give you with the greatest care for replacing poor or missing teeth.

For the health of your teeth and gums, it's critical to practice good dental hygiene. Brushing your teeth, using mouthwashes, and, most importantly, visiting your dentist on a regular basis are all part of this. Poor oral hygiene, on the other hand, can lead to major long-term repercussions like cavities and periodontal disease. As a result, your dentist may recommend the placement of a dental prosthesis to help treat these various illnesses.

What is the definition of a dental prosthesis?

A dental prosthesis is a false tooth that is used to replace one or more missing teeth.

In today's dentistry offices, this is a highly prevalent method. They are manufactured to order in order to provide patients with the most natural effect and a sense of ease. They are made of materials that are not antagonistic to the body because they are a foreign body.

In order to provide the best care to the patient, the dentist will perform this procedure in partnership with a denturist, who will construct, adjust, and prepare the dental prostheses.

The dentist's role will begin just before the prosthesis is designed; he will take fingerprints. Certain aspects, like as the cosmetic aspect, must be considered; the color, form, and occlusion of the tooth are all important factors to consider while designing a dental prosthesis. To avoid any disproportion, the shape of the face is also a criterion! Following the impressions, the denturist or a dental technician will design the prosthesis in the laboratory (more accessible for the general public). Your practitioner will, however, perform the fitting and adjustment.

(Important: to summarize, your dentist will do your dental exam and monitor your progress during your treatment.) The only purpose of the denturist or dental prosthetist's visit is to create the prosthesis.)

 

Prostheses are divided into two categories:

A detachable dental prosthesis, such as a denture, is a device that can be removed.

A crown, an implant, or a bridge are examples of fixed dental prostheses that will be cemented or sealed.

The crown, which rests on the root of a tooth to replace it. It could be made of metal or ceramic.

The bridge, which rests on nearby teeth to replace one or more missing teeth.

When should you use a prosthesis?

When a patient loses a tooth, or when a tooth is severely damaged, even dilapidated, due to decay, or when a tooth has been devitalized, a dental prosthesis is typically employed. Our dental surgeons will tell you if your gums and jaws are healthy enough to sustain a prosthesis during a dental check-up if you are considering this therapy.
