When a tooth is missing or too badly damaged, it must be replaced or restored to restore the beauty of the smile, but above all to restore oral function and prevent tooth displacement.
This is where prosthodontics comes in, restoring natural teeth or replacing missing teeth with dentures, bridges or crowns.
A successful prosthesis rests on a healthy foundation. If you notice that your gums are bleedinga periodontal treatment is essential before fitting any prosthesis. Similarly, if a natural tooth is retained to support a bridge, a thorough root canal cleaning (endodontics) is carried out to ensure the longevity of the prosthetic work.
Partial dentures can replace one or more teeth, and are held to the surrounding healthy teeth by small clasps. Complete dentures are used to replace all natural teeth. Both types of prosthesis are removable.
There are two types of implant-supported prostheses: fixed and removable. Fixed prostheses, such as crowns, are placed permanently on implants, while removable prostheses must be removed for cleaning or during sleep. The choice of one or the other depends on a number of factors, which we can discuss with you.
Fixed dentures allow you to regain a natural, functional smile without the drawbacks of removable dentures, although these also offer certain advantages. For example, they are generally more affordable and do not require complex surgery. Fixed dentures are firmly anchored to implants, ensuring perfect stability and eliminating the risk of slippage or discomfort during chewing. They also help preserve the jawbone, improve daily comfort and offer an aesthetic result very close to that of natural teeth.
The choice between fixed and removable dent ures depends on individual preferences, but above all on needs, budget and comfort. While fixed dentures offer a long-lasting, highly stable solution, removable dentures remain an affordable, practical and easy-to-maintain alternative.
