DENTAL PROSTHETICS

Cuprins arata

Dental prosthetics is the most complex branch of dentistry. It is the branch that is concerned with the study of the dental arches affected by the loss of one or more teeth(edentation) or by teeth erosion(atrition) and finding the best treatment options in order to create esthetical, functional and musculo-articular balance.

The consequences of losing teeth

The loss of a single tooth causes changes in all the remaining ones, the jaw bones and the temporo-mandibular muscles and articulations. With age, the teeth migrate to fing balance with the teeth near them(called neighbouring teeth) and the opposite arches counterpart (called antagonist teeth). When a tooth is missing, the others try to compensate by moving towards the empty space. These changes in position will lead to:

The consequences of losing teeth:

› articular and occlusal problems, mastication disorders related to abnormal contact between teeth.
› Postural disorders followed by headaches.
› Parodontal disorders, swelling of the gums and, later, parodontosis.
› Increased risk of developing cavities and sensitivity in the remaining teeth.

Dental prosthetics– combining art and skill, for your health

Prosthetic treatments are rigid pieces made from various materials in a specialised laboratory that are used to restore the functionality and integrity of damaged arches. They are concieved after a treatment plan, custom-made to fit the needs of every individual patient.

Dental prosthetics, as a service offered by our clinic, is focused on restoring the structures in the most durable and best way possible, aesthetically and functionally, so that every patient can enjoy the beautiful smile they want.

Prosthetic restaurations in our clinic

We offer all types of prosthetic treatments, in collaboration with specialised laboratories in Romania, with the best materials and in accordance with the European standards. We offer modern, beautiful treatment solutions, and a WARRANTY PLAN, as follows:

Fixed prosthetics

› Metaloceramic crowns and bridges, created using classical or CAD-CAM technology, are realised by layering ceramic on Co-Cr or gold structures, a technology tested, documented and perfected in more than 50 years of experience. Globally, these are the most common type of fixed prosthetics.
› Zirconium crowns and bridges: Zirconium is a recently discovered, revolutionary material in dental medicine. It is very appreciated and recommended for its many qualities. It is very aesthetically pleasing, resistent, well-tolerated by the human organism as it is totally bioinert: it does not cause bimetalism phenomena and is hypoallergenic. Because the infrastructure is white, layered ceramic restaurations over zirconium look very natural. They are created with CAD-CAM technology, which makes them very precise and resistent.
› Dental facets and layered ceramic crowns on e-max. E-max meant a great progress in restaurative and cosmetic dentistry, as it presented the advantage of good adhesion to dental structures, beyond being aesthetically pleasing and extremely biocompatible. The infrastructure is digitally-designed, which makes it very precise. Adhesive cementation to dental structures with last-generation resin cements greatly reduces the risk of the facets falling. This is the ideal solution for a perfect aesthetic with prosthesis, as 10-year success rate is over 90%.
› Composite or ceramic Inlay, as an alternative to extensive photopolimerised dental fillings.
› Oclusal balancing treatment.

Mobile and removable prosthetics

› Proteze acrilice parțiale sau totale, armate individualizat, cu garnituri acrilice sau de compozit;
› Proteze scheletate cu sisteme speciale de menținere, sprijin și stabilizare.

› Partial or total acrylic denture, individually reinforced, with acrylic or composite teeth.
› Skeletal denture with special maintenance, support and stabilisation systems.

Dental implants

When a tooth is missing, polishing healthy neighbouring teeth and using a 3-element bridge is no longer necessary. The implant will serve as a root and will be able to support the crown alone.

In case of extensive or even total edentation, more implants are used to support a fixed cemented or screwed prosthesis, with standard or personalised, metallic or zirconium implants, depending on the patient’s needs.

In 20 years of clinical experience, we have encountered and found solutions for many varied and difficult cases, so we have the means to offer you resistent,top-quality and good-looking prosthetics.

At EXCEDENT, you’ll always find your way to a perfect smile!
