Prosthesis Treatment

Prosthesis treatment refers to the restoration or replacement of missing or damaged teeth with artificial devices. These prosthetic devices can restore the function, structure, and aesthetic of your teeth and improve your overall oral health. Prosthesis treatment can include dentures, bridges, crowns, and dental implants.

At Medixir Clinic, our experienced dental professionals specialize in prosthetic treatments designed to restore both the function and appearance of your teeth. Whether you have lost teeth due to injury, decay, or age, prosthetic treatments can help you regain confidence in your smile.

There are several types of prosthetic treatments available, each tailored to the patient’s specific needs. These include fixed prostheses such as dental bridges and crowns, as well as removable prostheses like dentures. Implants, which provide a permanent solution, are also part of prosthesis treatment.

Dental crowns are often used to restore severely damaged teeth. They are custom-designed to fit over the remaining portion of a tooth, providing protection and strength. Crowns can be made from various materials, including porcelain, ceramic, and metal, depending on the patient’s needs and preferences.

Bridges are used to replace one or more missing teeth by anchoring an artificial tooth between two adjacent natural teeth. This helps restore your ability to chew and speak properly and prevents other teeth from shifting.

Dentures are removable prosthetic devices that replace missing teeth. They can be partial (replacing a few teeth) or full (replacing an entire set of upper or lower teeth). Dentures can be customized for comfort and functionality.

Dental implants are the most permanent and durable option for tooth replacement. They involve placing a titanium post into the jawbone, which serves as an anchor for a custom crown or bridge. Implants function just like natural teeth and offer a long-term solution for tooth loss.

During a prosthesis treatment consultation, your dentist will assess your oral health, discuss your needs, and help you choose the most appropriate treatment option. The process typically involves several steps, including preparation, fitting, and follow-up visits for adjustments.

Prosthetic treatments not only restore the appearance of your teeth but also improve your ability to chew, speak, and maintain the health of your remaining teeth. With proper care and maintenance, prosthetic devices can last for many years.

At Medixir Clinic, we use state-of-the-art technology to design and place your prosthetics. Our goal is to ensure that you leave with a functional, beautiful smile that enhances your quality of life.
