Veneers
They are very thin porcelain plates fixed on the external surface of teeth. They may help to correct the color and the shape of teeth, and to hide fillings. Their application creates a very esthetic view superior to that created by light curing fillings. Porcelain veneers require exceptional precision of the physician, and high work culture of the technician. For this reason, their price is similar to that of metal ceramic crowns. Two visits to the odontologist will make your smile as bright as that of Hollywood stars.
Inlays and onlays
Win cases when the crown defect is extensive, and filling may be ineffective, we offer the restoration of the missing part of the tooth with porcelain inlays or onlays. In each case, the color is selected individually. This also helps to avoid tooth polishing and application of an artificial crown. This is an excellent novelty that saves the patient’s time and money. Inlays and onlays ensure lasting and esthetic restoration.
Removable dentures
If a patient has lost multiple or even all teeth, we can offer partial or full removable plate dentures. Such dentures are beneficial because they redistribute chewing forces on natural teeth and protect them from overload. They also restore the position of bones in the temporomandibular joint, which reduces clicking sounds during eating, ringing in the ears, and other unpleasant sensations. Better mastication of food also reduces the load on the stomach. If the patient’s own teeth are sufficiently strong, we can produce a metal frame prosthetic application that is fastened to natural teeth using special fixings or attachments. This provides more comfort, since these prosthetic applications remain totally immobile when eating or speaking. Since these applications have smaller surface contact with oral mucosa, articulation remains nearly unaffected.
Bridges
Bridges restore the function of lost teeth. At least two teeth are prepared for this purpose. Bridges are necessary for the following reasons:
Crowns
Dental crowns are fixed on natural teeth that are prepared before this procedure. Crowns are required in the following cases:
