Dental prosthetics can be removable (orthopedic structures can be removed/attached by the patient) or fixed (the prosthetic can only be removed by a dentist at the clinic).

In 85% of cases, patients choose fixed prosthetics: crowns, bridges, veneers, or implant-supported dentures on 4 or 6 implants. This is the best type of prosthetics.

Crowns

An orthopedic structure in the form of a cap, installed on a prepared tooth or implant. Dental crowns are made from various materials: metal-ceramics, ceramics, E-Max, or zirconium dioxide.

Indications:

• Tooth damage of 70% or more;
• Missing one tooth.

Contraindications:

• Mobility of a severely damaged tooth;
• Bruxism;
• Bite anomalies.

Service Life:

Metal-ceramics — up to 7 years; E-Max ceramics and zirconium dioxide — up to 15 years. Learn more about crown installation.

Advantages:

• Full restoration of the tooth's aesthetics and chewing function;
• Avoids the need to extract the problematic tooth.

Disadvantages:

• Requires tooth preparation (in some cases, nerve removal is necessary).

Dental Bridge

A fixed orthopedic structure designed to restore one or several missing teeth in a row. It is attached to adjacent prepared teeth or implants.

Indications:

• Missing one molar;
• Loss of one or more front teeth with healthy side supports;
• Absolute contraindications to dental implants.

Contraindications:

• Missing 4 or more teeth in a row;
• Loss of terminal molars;
• Gingivitis, periodontitis, periodontal disease.

Service Life:

Up to 10 years.

Advantages:

• Quick adaptation (3-4 hours);
• Good aesthetics (crowns' color matches natural teeth);
• Affordable price.

Disadvantages:

• Requires preparation of supporting teeth (sometimes including nerve removal);
• Does not prevent jawbone resorption.

Veneers

Thin (up to 0.5 mm) plates made of composite, ceramic, or zirconium dioxide, attached to the front surface of the problem tooth.

Indications:

• Presence of chips or cracks in the enamel;
• Enlarged interdental spaces;
• Wedge-shaped defects;
• Discoloration of enamel.

Contraindications:

• Bruxism;
• Pulpitis, periodontitis, and periodontal disease.

Service Life:

Up to 5 years for composite veneers, up to 10 years for ceramic and zirconia veneers, up to 15 years for E-Max ceramics.

Advantages:

• Look like natural teeth;
• Biocompatible, do not cause allergies;
• Do not require special care;
• Minimal enamel preparation, no nerve removal.

Disadvantages:

• Require periodic replacement;
• Not subject to whitening (discoloration requires a new veneer);
• High price.

Implant-Supported Denture

A conditionally removable structure consisting of an acrylic or nylon base with 12 or 14 crowns, fixed on 4, 6, or 8 implants depending on the clinical situation.

Indications:

• Total tooth loss.

Contraindications:

• Cancer;
• Active tuberculosis;
• Immunopathological conditions.

Advantages:

• Teeth restoration in one day (temporary dentures can be fixed on the day of implant placement);
• Reliable fixation (do not fall out);
• Distribute chewing load evenly, preventing bone atrophy;
• Do not injure gums;
• Twice the lifespan of alternatives.

Disadvantages:

• Long treatment period (implants take 3-6 months to integrate before the denture can be placed);
• High cost.

Plastic (Acrylic)

A classic option for removable dental prosthetics, popular due to its low price, short production time, and ease of care.

For full edentulism, the structure is fixed by suction to the gums (acrylic adheres to the mucosa). For partial cases, the acrylic prosthetic is fixed with semi-transparent clasps.

Indications:

• Partial and complete edentulism.

Contraindications:

• Allergy to plastics;
• Pronounced bone resorption (making it impossible to secure the structure).

Service Life:

Up to 4 years.

Advantages:

• Short production times;
• Minimal contraindications;
• Easy to remove and wear;
• Low price;
• Easy to repair.

Disadvantages:

• Incomplete restoration of chewing function (limits intake of hard foods);
• Affects diction;
• Reduces taste sensitivity;
• May cause allergies to plastics;
• Unreliable fixation (may fall out).

Acry Free

Next-generation prosthetics made from patented Acry Free material, offering improved aesthetics and comfort compared to classic plate designs.

Indications:

• Partial or complete loss of teeth;
• Contraindications to dental implantation.

Contraindications:

• None.

Service Life:

Up to 7 years.

Advantages:

• More comfortable than plastic prosthetics due to snug fit to gums;
• Almost invisible thanks to a semi-transparent base;
• Does not contain methyl methacrylate, eliminating the risk of allergic reactions.

Disadvantages:

• Twice the cost of plastic removable prosthetics.

Nylon

Made using injection molding technology from a flexible, durable polymer material (does not contain monomers).

A semi-transparent pink-tinted base mimics the gum tissue, making nylon prosthetics almost unnoticeable.

Indications:

• Significant or total tooth loss;
• Allergy to acrylic or metal.

Contraindications:

• Periodontitis;
• Severe bone tissue atrophy.

Service Life:

Up to 4 years.

Advantages:

• Hypoallergenic;
• Aesthetic;
• Comfortable to wear due to lightweight and thin structure.

Disadvantages:

• Does not provide adequate chewing load on the bone, leading to atrophy;
• Difficult to polish (discoloration and roughness occur after six months);
• Prone to sagging;
• High price.

Partial Dentures

Conditionally removable orthopedic structures with a metal frame and acrylic/nylon base with artificial teeth.

There are two types of partial dentures: with attachments or clasps. The former offers better aesthetics but is more expensive.

Indications:

• Partial tooth loss;
• Periodontitis, periodontal disease (additionally strengthens the loose tooth row).

Contraindications:

• No healthy teeth to secure the structure;
• Allergy to metal alloys;
• Bruxism.

Service Life:

Up to 10 years.

Advantages:

• Comfortable to wear (do not fall out or rub against gums);
• Does not affect taste perception (covers only a small part of the palate);
• Does not impair speech;
• Natural appearance due to light-transparent base;
• Withstands significant loads thanks to the metal frame;
• Minimizes bone atrophy by evenly distributing chewing load on the jaw.

Disadvantages:

• Requires healthy supporting teeth for installation;
• Clasps securing the structure are visible.

Fixed prosthetics are the most reliable, aesthetic, and comfortable type of dental prosthetics. They allow you to have new teeth as functional and natural as your original ones.

• How to care for dental prosthetics?

  Care differs for removable and fixed prosthetics. Removable ones need to be taken out, cleaned with non-abrasive pastes, and treated with special solutions. Fixed prosthetics, like natural teeth, should be brushed twice daily and flossed. Regular dental visits for professional cleaning (every six months) are recommended.

• Can a bridge be installed without preparing healthy supporting teeth?

  Yes, technically a bridge can restore several lost teeth without depulping or preparing the supporting units. This technology is called adhesive prosthetics. However, it is currently used only as a temporary solution (up to 3 years).

• How many years can a tooth last after nerve removal?

  If the canals are treated thoroughly under a microscope and the damaged tooth is restored with a crown or inlay, it can last for another 10-20 years.

• A piece of a tooth broke off—can it be left untreated?

  Even a seemingly harmless microcrack (let alone a chip) can lead to pulpitis or periodontitis without treatment, eventually causing tooth loss.
