REPLACEMENT OF LOST TEETH

#protetikadc

A dental prosthesis is a complex biochemical construction that must replace a lost tooth and copy to the maximum extent the possible the parameters of a living tooth. The main task facing the doctors at our centre is to select a replacement design that not only replaces the missing teeth but also keeps the remaining teeth for as long as possible.

The quality of a prosthesis is conditioned by the qualification of the doctor, the dental technician and equipment of the dental centre. The prostheses available at the DENTALCENTER are at a high level of quality and available across the entire range of prostheses, and the methods and materials used are constantly being improved.

After the removal of a tooth or several teeth, many patients postpone the replacement of missing teeth indefinitely, without considering the consequences. The more time passes from their removal, the more complicated it becomes to resolve the problem.

In case of significant deformities of the teeth, the preparation of prostheses may include orthodontic treatment with preliminary surgical steps.

Micro-prosthesis

A micro-prosthesis is a modern and promising method of restoring teeth. The essence of the method is to recreate the missing part of the tooth from a ceramic material and to restore the colours, shape, transparency, gloss and resistance to abrasion.

Microprostheses include:   

  • in-lay (filling),    

  • on-lay,

  • facet (layer on the front of the teeth).

Ceramic fillings

In the past, aesthetics and functionality competed with one another, and one of them had to be sacrificed in the process of restoring teeth.

Today, it is possible to achieve both aims if the tooth restoration is done with the help of ceramic fillings.

It is not necessary to grind healthy dental tissues, as is sometimes the case with a dental prosthesis, such as a crown. The doctor will only remove the old filling and the tissues attacked by the caries and will then make a cast or scan the tooth.

The doctor will insert a temporary filling to wear while the production of the permanent ceramic filling is taking place. So that the filling is a natural continuation of the tooth, the colour and degree of lucidity must be set during its production.

Metal ceramics are used in the case of a long-term temporary prosthesis when implants are used. They are less often used with permanent prostheses, when the degree of damage to the tooth is so high that ensuring the strength of the structure is possible only with the help of a solid cast iron frame. The metal and ceramic materials are chosen according to the specific situation. Constructions made from alloys of precious metals (gold and platinum, gold and palladium) or titanium are especially of high quality.

               

The use of ceramics enables the metal frame to be left out, thanks to the application of solid and lucid the materials made of special ceramics (Empress, Zircon, Emasc).

If the tooth is very damaged and its root canals have already been treated, a crown needs to be inserted into such a tooth. In the past, metal-ceramic crowns were the only aesthetic way to insert a prosthesis. Their main disadvantage is the reflection of scattered light, which causes metal-ceramic crowns to look brighter than natural teeth.

Another big drawback of metal-ceramics is the formation of a grey shadow on the edge of the gums.

The optical properties of non-metallic all-ceramic materials enable whiteness to be achieved, as in the case of natural teeth, thanks to the absence of a metal frame, which is particularly desirable in the prostheses of crowns for the front teeth. Metal-free replacements are made of bioinert materials and thus do not cause allergic reactions.
