Prosthesis Types

Prosthetic teeth are a treatment method applied in cases where the patient wants to eliminate tooth deficiencies in the mouth or to have a better smile aesthetically. In order to eliminate the tooth deficiency, it is preferably to make a fixed prosthesis on the implant after sufficient connected implant treatment. It is applied as a bridgework to single or multiple teeth. If your bone is inadequate or you have different aesthetic expectations, it can be applied in mobile prostheses.

Can the Patient Use Immobile Prostheses as if they were his/her own Female?

The fixed prosthesis types applied are adapted to the patient's mouth by providing a completely natural appearance and the patient has no difference with his/her own tooth in terms of aesthetics. In cases such as eating and drinking, the patient does not have any difficulty in his/her daily life as a result of the excellent connection established by the prosthesis with his/her own teeth or implant.

What's the Difference Between Implant and bridgework?

In tooth deficiencies, a fixed prosthesis is applied instead of only missing teeth for 2 to 6 months at the end of the healing process after implant treatment, and other teeth are not touched in any way. Before the implant is made, the types of prostheses to be used to fill the deficiencies of the teeth should be cut and reduced to a certain size in order to use the teeth next to the cavity as a support.

What are Movable Prostheses and How to Use them?

There are several types of mobile prostheses depending on the areas where they are applied in the mouth. These are classified as total partial and prosthetic types. Total prostheses are applied in cases where all teeth are missing and the bone level is not sufficient for a fixed prosthesis. These prostheses are used as a support for the bone underneath and can be inserted and removed at any time.

Partial prostheses are the treatment applied to patients with tooth deficiency in some regions. These are attached to the natural tooth with braces in a way that they do not present a poor appearance in terms of aesthetics. Immediate prostheses, on the other hand, are a temporary solution to prevent the hospital from becoming toothless after the operation, to fill the space without the intervention of adjacent teeth and to prevent the patient from having an aesthetic problem. After the healing is completed, these prostheses are removed and fixed prostheses are applied on the implant.

What Differences Can Be Found in the Structure of the Prosthesis

There are two options for the prostheses infrastructure. One of them is metal and the other is zirconium-based prostheses. Since zirconium has a higher light transmittance in prostheses where it is preferred, it provides an image that is much closer to the natural structure and color of the tooth. Metal supported prostheses do not occur in zirconium-based prostheses due to the wear over the years. Other reasons for preferring zirconium in the infrastructure are that it does not cause metallic taste and gingival recession to the dark reflection of metal on the gum.

Is Prosthesis Applied for an Aesthetic Image?

Laminate application is the type of coating made with the least abrasion. Laminates are applied in cases where the size of the teeth is not at the desired level or there is too much opening between the teeth during the crowding smile in the patient's teeth. In this process, only thin and desired lamina teeth are adhered to the front of the teeth and a brand new smile is designed.

How Long Do Applied Laminates and Prostheses Last?

The substances used in the production of prostheses and the adhesives that bind them to the tooth are among the most important factors in the year of use. In prostheses applied in the clinical environment, these prostheses of the patient are used for at least 15 to 20 years by keeping the quality at the highest level. Regardless of which type of prosthesis is applied to the patient, oral cleaning should generally be done completely and carefully. Otherwise, negative results may occur in terms of the appearance of the prostheses and their duration of use. The same brushing procedures applied to normal teeth should be applied to prostheses.

You can clean your mouth by brushing at least twice a day. In cases where brushing is not sufficient, you can also clean between teeth with dental floss in detail. All these applications will extend the service life of your normal teeth and dentures. In addition, failure to perform compelling movements in the use of hard-shelled nuts with prosthetic teeth also prolongs the service life of the prostheses.
