Prosthetic restoration
Dental prosthetics are the process of restoring missing teeth using artificial structures such as crowns, bridges, or removable dentures. This procedure not only enhances the aesthetic appearance of the smile but also restores full chewing function. Prosthetics can be made from various materials, including metals, ceramics, and composites, allowing for optimal solutions tailored to each patient. Thanks to modern prosthetic technologies, the results can look very natural and harmoniously blend with the remaining teeth.
When Prosthetic restoration is necessary?
Dental prosthetics become necessary in the following cases:
- Tooth Loss: If the teeth are damaged, destroyed, or removed due to trauma, decay, or a gum disease, prosthetics can help restore their function and aesthetics.
- Difficulties in Chewing: If one or more teeth are missing, it can make chewing difficult and interfere with normal food intake, making prosthetics a good solution.
- Cosmetic Issues: If the loss of the teeth affects the appearance of the smile and causes discomfort or complexes, prosthetics can improve facial aesthetics and self-confidence.
- Bite Problems: An improper bite due to missing teeth can lead to additional issues with the jaw and teeth, including tooth wear, jaw pain, and headaches. Prosthetics can help restore the proper bite.
- Condition of the Remaining Teeth: If the remaining teeth are at risk of damage due to the lack of support or load, prosthetics can help distribute the load and prevent further tooth destruction.
In each specific case, it is recommended to consult a dentist to assess the need for prosthetics.

How we do Prosthetic restoration?
Our state-of-the-art dental laboratory ensures the best prices, guaranteed quality, and fast turnaround times. Our experienced dental prosthetists have successfully performed hundreds of procedures, continuously improving their skills through training and the introduction of new technologies. We offer an individually tailored approach and provide all available dental prosthetic techniques to meet every patient’s needs.
Types of Prosthetic restoration
What types of dental prosthetics are used? The classification of dental prosthetics depends on the type of fixation and the size of the tooth row of the jaw to be restored. The dental prosthetics is performed by using fixed and removable constructions.
Veneers
Veneers are thin ceramic or composite veneers that are bonded to the front surface of teeth to improve their appearance. They help cover discoloration, minor imperfections in shape or position, and cracks or gaps between teeth. Veneers look natural, are durable, and are stain-resistant, making them a popular choice for cosmetic dentistry.
Crown
The crown is placed on a damaged molar tooth, restoring its shape and function while also protecting it from further destruction. The process of installing the crown involves reshaping the tooth, creating a custom crown model in the laboratory, and securing it with special cement. Crowns are made from ceramics, which allows for achieving optimal aesthetic appearance and strength suitable for each patient.
Dental bridge
Bridge prosthetics are used when 1-3 units are lost. The main condition for this method is the integrity of the adjacent teeth. While bridges help restore chewing function and enhance the aesthetics of the smile, they also have their drawbacks. The installation of a bridge requires the reshaping of two healthy teeth, which can lead to their wear or damage. Additionally, beneath the bridge, bone tissue atrophy may occur, as the lack of stable load on that area can lead to its sinking, which is important to consider before choosing this restoration method.
All on 4/6
Dental implantation “ALL on 4” is a patented prosthetics method that effectively addresses the problem of complete tooth loss. The essence of the procedure lies in the placement of four implants that serve as supports for a dental prosthesis, whether removable or fixed. The “ALL on 4” implantation allows for immediate loading on the jaw and fully restores chewing function. This method is suitable for anyone looking to undergo a total reconstruction of the dental arch and address aesthetic issues “here and now.”
Removable dentures
While performing dental prosthetics with removable dentures, special constructions that can be independently taken out are used. They can be used if 1-2 teeth are missing or there is a complete adentia (all teeth are missing). Such ware consists of two parts: the base and artificial crowns. Removable constructions are one of the most available methods. They are especially appropriate for elderly people. Non-physiological dentures: Acrylic removable denture. A classical denture which has already been produced for more than 60 years. Its advantage is its low price and possibility of repairing. The disadvantages – when using it on the upper jaw, it covers almost the entire palate and there is a possibility of allergy development due to the presence acrylates. Nylon denture. Advantages: bio-compatibility, the greatest flexibility and close to the colour of the natural gums. Disadvantages: no possibility of repairing it and a restricted service life. Partially physiological dentures: Snap-in denture. Advantages – the most physiological removable denture. The presence of metal elements provides the denture with durability and fixation safety and the same way it is possible to make dentures of a smaller size. Disadvantages – the mandatory presence of metal in the denture construction can affect aesthetics in particular clinical situations. Combined dentures They are dentures, which consist of removable and non-removable parts. They include snap-in dentures with fixtures. Advantages: aesthetics and usage simplicity. Disadvantages: if the denture breaks or it is necessary to extract at least one of the supporting teeth, the entire construction must be changed.

F.A.Q.
Dental prosthetics are a dental procedure aimed at restoring the missing teeth using artificial constructions such as crowns, bridges, or removable dentures.
Prosthetics are necessary in cases of tooth loss, serious damage, difficulties in chewing, cosmetic problems, or bite issues.
The lifespan of prosthetics depends on the type chosen and the materials used. Crowns and bridges can last from 5 to 15 years, while removable dentures may need replacement every 5-10 years.
In most cases, prosthetics do not cause significant discomfort, as procedures are performed under local anesthesia. However, after installation, temporary sensations of discomfort or sensitivity may occur.
Care for prosthetics includes regular oral hygiene: brushing teeth twice a day, using dental floss, and regular visits to the dentist for check-ups and professional cleaning.
Yes, in most cases, even severely damaged teeth can be restored. The dentist will assess the condition of the teeth and offer the best treatment option.
The choice of prosthetics type depends on the condition of the teeth, the budget, and the patient’s preferences. The dentist will help select the most suitable solution.
Prosthetics help restore full chewing function, improving comfort while eating and enhancing the overall quality of life for the patient.
Gum diseases may be a contraindication for prosthetics, so it is essential to treat them first and ensure the health of the gums.
The choice of material depends on individual needs. Ceramics provide high aesthetics, while metals are often used for strength. The dentist will assist in making the right choice based on the situation.
