Prosthodontics

What is Prosthodontics?

Prosthodontics deals with designing and manufacturing dental prostheses (devices that replace or restore missing or damaged teeth). A good prosthodontist diagnoses, designs, constructs, and adapts the prosthesis to the patient's mouth, achieving quality results that are also aesthetically harmonious with facial proportions.

Who Can Benefit from Prosthodontics?

Patients struggling with dental imperfections or an incomplete smile can benefit from prosthodontics. Dental prosthetics can address the following:

• Fractured teeth due to trauma
• Damaged teeth
• Loss of teeth due to advanced pathology

To know which prosthesis best suits your needs, the dentist must perform a detailed examination of the state of health of your mouth.

Here we offer you:

Implants

An implant is a screw-like fixture that fits into the jawbone at the site of a lost tooth to act as an artificial root. Crowns or prostheses will be placed over the implant to replace the lost tooth in appearance and functionality.

All-on-4® Implants

This technique replaces the upper or lower set of teeth with just four implants. These implants support the new set of fixed teeth to be placed.

Crowns

A crown is a covering that looks and functions like a real tooth that fits over damaged or decayed teeth.

Bridges

A bridge is a fixed prosthesis placed in the mouth to replace the absence of one or more teeth.

Fixed or OverDentures

These prostheses are intended to replace part or all of the teeth and surrounding tissues (upper gum).
