Orthopedics

Orthopedics

Prosthetic dentistry focuses on treating partial, unilateral, or full defects in the tooth or dental system through removable or fixed prosthetic constructions. These treatments aim to restore chewing function and correct aesthetic discomfort.

What types of constructions are used in prosthetic dentistry?
  • Removable partial and full dentures
  • Fixed single crowns or bridgework
  • Post and core for restoring the remaining tooth root
What modern treatment methods are available?
  • Flexible dentures
  • Zirconia-milled monolithic crowns or full bridgework, as well as nanocomposite post and crowns
  • All of the above constructions can be combined with dental implants
What is a prosthetic veneer?

A prosthetic veneer is a thin zirconia or ceramic plate that tightly adheres to the tooth’s outer surface. It fully restores the tooth’s frontal part and is used for:

  • Discolored, stained, or multicolored teeth
  • Moderate diastemas (gaps between teeth)
  • Teeth partially restored with fillings
Unique features of dental veneers:
  • Quick and long-lasting aesthetic results
  • Easy to maintain
  • The tooth remains vital (alive), with only 0.3-0.5 mm of the enamel layer being treated
  • The anatomical and geometric properties of the prosthetic materials used in veneers help create a natural look
  • Resistant to secondary defects like discoloration and staining
