Dental Prosthesis

Dental prostheses used in the dental field are apparatuses that restore the basic functions (chewing, speaking, etc.) of teeth lost due to various reasons and contribute aesthetically. In general, tooth and bone loss occurs as a result of untreated gum diseases. With dental prosthesis treatment, lost oral health is restored.

Fixed Dental Prosthesis;

These are bonded prostheses such as crowns and bridges that the patient cannot remove on his/her own. Fixed dental prostheses are adhered to the person’s mouth with special material. It is the most commonly used type of dental prosthesis in terms of function in tooth loss.

Removable Dental Prosthesis;

Removable dental prostheses are a type of dental prosthesis that can be removed and worn by patients and should be included in daily oral care.

Total Dental Prosthesis;

It is a type of dental prosthesis used to fulfill the functions of all missing teeth in the mouth. It is a dental prosthesis that can be used with the help of bone tissue in the upper and lower jaw and is known as ‘false teeth’. It is a savior solution in cases where the implant is not available.

Partial Dental Prosthesis;

It is the preferred dental prosthesis in cases where fixed dental prosthesis cannot be applied. It is also called ’tissue-supported dental prosthesis because it is placed in front of the toothless area and held with a hook. It can be inserted and removed by the patient when necessary and is a type of dental prosthesis that should be included in daily oral care.

Precision Retained Dental Prosthesis: It is a type of dental prosthesis preferred for people with partially missing teeth. They are aesthetic dental prostheses without any hook-type apparatus visible from the outside.
