Prosthesis

Detailed Information About Prosthesis
Prosthetic treatment is a dental method used to replace missing teeth and restore an aesthetically pleasing smile. At Gürlek Dental Oral and Dental Health Clinic, we offer modern prosthetic solutions to ensure our patients live confidently and smile brightly.

Types of Prosthetic Treatments

1. Fixed Prosthetics: Fixed prosthetics are permanently placed on the teeth and cannot be removed. These include zirconium bridges and porcelain crowns. 2. Removable Prosthetics: Removable prosthetics are temporary or permanent replacements for missing teeth that can be taken out as needed. These include acrylic prosthetics and hybrid prosthetics.

Steps of Prosthetic Treatment

1. Examination and Planning: In the initial step, the dentist evaluates the patient’s oral structure and prosthetic needs. The treatment plan is determined based on the patient’s needs and preferences. 2. Preparation: If necessary, missing teeth are extracted, or existing teeth are shaped. This step ensures that the prosthetics fit properly. 3. Measurement: The dentist takes measurements of the patient’s mouth to ensure the prosthetics fit perfectly. 4. Provisional Prosthetics: After taking measurements, provisional prosthetics are prepared for the patient to use temporarily until the permanent prosthetics are ready. 5. Prosthetic Fabrication: After measurements and trials with provisional prosthetics, the permanent prosthetics are crafted in a laboratory. 6. Prosthetic Application: Once completed, the dentist places the prosthetics in the patient’s mouth and checks for fit. Necessary adjustments are made, and the prosthetics are either permanently fixed or given to the patient.

Prosthetic Care and Hygiene

  • Prosthetics should be cleaned daily with a toothbrush and a prosthetic brush.
  • Prosthetics should be removed and rinsed with clean water before bed.
  • Special prosthetic cleaning tablets or solutions can be used for cleaning.
  • When not in use for long periods, prosthetics should be stored in a clean, dry container.
