Dental Prosthetics. Fixed and removable dental prosthetics. Dental crown, dental bridge, dental veneers, denture repair. Family Hospital of Albania Doctor
Dental prostheses are used to rehabilitate the oral functions of patients by replacing missing natural teeth with artificial dental elements. Some types of prosthetic interventions can be used to correct functional as well as aesthetic anomalies in the shape, color or position of natural teeth. They are different types of dental prostheses
Fixed, mobile and partial prosthesis. Dental crown, dental bridge, inlays, dental veneers. Types of dental prosthesis.
Fixed prosthesis replaces natural dental elements with definitive and stable products. These are veneers, artificial replacement crowns of a single tooth and replaced bridges of several dental elements cemented to natural supporting pillars adjacent teeth and therefore not removable by the patient.
The prostheses are indicated for endodontically treated teeth that are devitalized with a high risk of fracture. The outcome of the fracture can lead to extraction of the tooth. In this case the crown aims to circle the tooth protecting it during chewing loads. It is also indicated for teeth with extensive coronal destruction where it is necessary to re-establish a correct shape to restore functionality and aesthetics.
Dental crown
They can be in metal-ceramic and all-ceramic. The former consist of an internal metal part or cap which gives it its resistance while the ceramic that completely covers the metal takes care of the aesthetic part. All-ceramic prostheses are completely metal-free, consisting of ceramic only. The choice and use of these products are related to their aesthetic characteristics, therefore particularly suitable for the anterior sector.
Dental bridge
A bridge, also called a fixed partial denture, is a restoration anchored to at least two teeth, allowing one or more missing teeth to be replaced. It is possible to rehabilitate from a minimum of three teeth up to the entire dental arch. The supporting teeth consist of total crowns. This prosthetic solution, once very widespread, is now used particularly for small bridges while in the absence of many teeth, implantology is preferably used to create small bridges.
Dental veneers
This is a all-ceramic lamina of small thickness which is cemented on the external surface of the tooth improving the aesthetic appearance. It is a treatment that requires a minimum reduction of the external surface of the tooth without any devitalization.
They are indicated in cases of abnormal pigmentation or discoloration of the enamel of the tooth that is insensitive to traditional whitening techniques, of teeth with a defect in the shape of the tooth and for badly positioned teeth. Finally they are ideal for fractured teeth, in these cases the veneer reproduces the external shape and the missing tooth portion.
Mobile, partial or combined dental prosthesis. Acrylic prosthesis, anti-cheerful
- Removable prosthesis replaces part or the entire dental arch and can be removed by the patient in order to perform ordinary daily hygiene maneuvers. The mobile prosthesis can be partial or total.
Partial mobile dental prosthesis
The partial mobile prosthesis anchored by means of hooks to the residual natural teeth or attachments to natural teeth elements or artificial implants , is usually formed by a metal structure from which it takes the name of skeletonized. The presence of metal attachments allows to obtain a better level of functional and chewing stability and requires the necessary prosthesis of one or more dental elements where the attachments of the skeleton are inserted.
The partial mobile prosthesis in the absence of residual teeth or natural roots, the total resin prosthesis called denture replaces one or both dental arches, resting only on the patient's mucous membranes and bone.
Although the stability of the prosthesis is compromised by the gradual bone resorption that requires regular relining by the dentist and the masticatory effectiveness is reduced compared to other prosthetic solutions, the total prosthesis still represents a cheaper and less complex solution to restore. the patient's oral functions. The use of innovative composite materials and ceramics guarantees the functional, hypoallergenic and aesthetic validity of the result.
Combined mobile dental prosthesis
The mobile combined prosthesis restores the effectiveness of the dental arch by supporting titanium teeth or implants. The prosthesis is removable but fixed and made stable by anchoring devices that ensure long-term functionality. This type of device, by attaching itself to artificial pins, offers the advantage of not unloading its chewing force on the residual teeth, progressively undermining their health and stability, as occurs in the case of partial or skeletonized prostheses.
It is possible to improve the stability of mobile prostheses with minimally invasive interventions, which can also be carried out in very elderly patients and / or with physical problems: in these cases, closed implantology techniques are used, without flaps, non-traumatic and minimally invasive.
These methods make it possible to significantly improve the quality of life of older patients by eliminating the psycho-physical stress of the intervention. fixed prosthesis on implants: the implantology technique involves the replacement of individual dental elements or entire dental arches through the surgical insertion of titanium posts to which the teeth are permanently anchored. The use of artificial supports integrated in the mandibular or maxillary bone allows to preserve the health of the teeth still present filed and reduced in the application of the bridges and to guarantee complete stability.
Complete total acrylic or metal prosthesis
Complete acrylic or metal prosthesis. The total prosthesis replaces the total lack of teeth. The production depends on the anatomy of the jaw, which is formed after the extraction of the teeth. It can be fully acrylate, IVOCAP acrylic (acrylic quality prosthesis much more resistant than standard prosthesis) or WIRONIT metal prostheses. For people who are hypersensitive to the hardness of the prosthesis.
We offer the possibility of constructing prostheses with a soft lower part, which adheres to the mucosa / gingiva, and by choice also in combination with the implant that is implanted in the bone structure on which the prosthesis is then connected through the fixings (etecmeni) so as not to burden the gum.
These prostheses usually have as a basis a metal skeleton skeletonized prostheses which can be steel, titanium alloy the strongest and the thinnest, gold-platinum combinations, as well as unique combinations of metals and acrylates. The teeth we bind to the prosthesis can be classic, multicolored, ceramic and zirconium. Each of these combinations gives a better aesthetic and a naturalness to be envied.
Partial acrylic or metal prosthesis. A partial denture replaces the lack of several teeth. It is built if there is no possibility of a bridge or if the patient decides to put on a cheaper replacement.
Non-coupling prostheses are possible, i.e. those that attach to etecmen affixation, telescopically two crowns or Dolder based which is invisible to the human eye, and facilitates the use of the prosthesis. Before delivery to the patient, ceramic is placed on the teeth on a very thin titanium base and a material in the patient's gum color is placed on the body of the prosthesis.
Anti-allergic dental prosthesis
Antiallergic prosthesis. With the discovery of new materials and working techniques are the dental prosthesis does not cause allergic reactions. The allergic reaction can be limited burning and edema of the mucus in the oral cavity where there is the prosthesis, or greater, when you can notice blisters on the body, continuous dripping of the nose, itching, etc. We also see similar examples in people who have nickel as a chemical component of their bridges.
The solution to these allergy problems is simple, and we are the only ones in Albania to solve it by applying anti-allergic materials. The patient's reaction to the new antiallergic material is an incredible change from a perpetually ill person to a completely healthy person with no health problems.
Soft prostheses For people allergic to the hardness of dental prosthesis materials, there is the possibility of a new prosthesis with a soft underside or with the insertion of special soft materials in your old prosthesis. The result is that the dentures no longer cause discomfort, they do not cause irritation and rubbing wounds, you can finally enjoy daily life without feeling uncomfortable due to uncomfortable prostheses, aesthetically unpleasant and embarrassing for you.
Soft dental prosthesis
Repair of damaged prostheses
In addition to building the new denture, repairs of existing dentures are sometimes required, or some modifications are made to make the denture sit better in the oral cavity. All modifications and repairs of the prosthesis can be performed by UFO Dental Clinic the same day.
