What is prosthodontics?

When applying dentures, an entire tooth or part of the tooth is replaced using a substitute prepared in a dental laboratory. Materials and method of replacement are chosen by way of cooperation between the doctor and patient to resolve the problem in the most optimum and aesthetically pleasing way.

Prosthodontics include:

  • Non-Removable dentures:
  • Vineers.
  • Lumineers.
  • Dental crowns.
  • Inlays, onlays – deposits.
  • Dental bridges.
  • Implant crowns and bridges.

Removable Dentures:

  • Plastic prosthesis (the body of the dentures is made of plastic resembling the mucous membrane).
  • Bugel /cast prosthesis (the body of the dentures is made of cast metal and the parts supporting the teeth are made of plastic resembling the mucous membrane).
  • Combined dentures (crowns and dentures with locks)Because the oral system is a balanced unity, in order to achieve the durability of dentures, it is necessary to restore the opposing teeth and ensure an evenly distributed chewing. Subsequent hygiene and follow-up is essential. At intervals determined during the follow-up, clamps and other fixtures are checked and adjusted, if necessary the main part of the dentures is filled in with additional mass made of base material, depending on how the jawbone has developed over time.
