Dental prosthetics: types
There are two fundamentally different types of prostheses.
Removable. Such structures are used in case of complete or partial absence of teeth. I remove them from time to time for preventive cleaning and repair.
UADenta dental clinic in Dnipro installs the following prostheses:
- Bugel or metal prostheses. This is a design where the mounting base is made of metal, and the teeth are made of durable polymer. A very popular and common type of prosthetics. It is suitable where it is necessary to restore a row of several teeth, when it is impossible to install implants. In this way, bridge-like prostheses are made. Prosthetic teeth in a byugel method is a common technique. Allows you to quickly restore chewing ability.
- Acrylic or plastic prostheses. A structure that is often used as a temporary one, for example, in the case of a butterfly prosthesis (a prosthesis for front teeth is installed during the manufacture of the main replacement).
- Nylon. They are also called silicone. Dental prosthetics of this material is relatively new. Silicone prostheses are more comfortable and not toxic at all. Popular prostheses on suction cups are also made of nylon.
Fixed prostheses
This method is used where it is necessary to restore one tooth, its part or small gaps in a row. The UADenta dental clinic installs the following types of fixed prostheses:
- Metal-ceramic crowns and bridges.
- Ceramic metal crowns of selective sintering. The production technology of such prostheses uses a high-precision laser.
- Metal-free ceramics, as well as ceramics based on zirconium oxide. A new, rapidly developing direction in dental orthopedics. Such prostheses have practically no visible differences. There is no metal in their construction.
- Solid crowns.
- Vineers.
Prosthetics with implants
This technology has recently gained particular popularity. According to this technology, an artificial tooth is implanted into the bone tissue of the gums with the help of a titanium pin.
