Dental prosthesis

Dental prosthesis is an effective, custom-made solution to restore chewing function and the aesthetics of the smile when teeth are missing or damaged.
Prostheses can be fixed or removable, depending on clinical needs and the wearer’s preferences.

Fixed Dental Prostheses

Fixed prostheses provide a durable and stable solution for replacing missing teeth. They can be anchored to natural teeth or to osseointegrated implants.

The main types of fixed prostheses include:

  • Dental crowns made from materials such as ceramic, metal-ceramic, zirconia, or lithium disilicate, offering excellent aesthetic and functional results;
  • Dental bridges to replace one or more missing teeth;
  • Implant-supported prostheses, an advanced solution involving various types of prosthetic reconstructions, either screwed or cemented, resting on dental implants previously placed in the jawbone or maxilla.

Removable Dental Prostheses

Removable prostheses are suitable for patients needing to replace multiple teeth and can be removed for daily cleaning. Modern technologies allow the creation of very thin and comfortable prostheses, minimizing bulk and improving stability thanks to implant anchorage.

Removable prostheses are categorized as:

  • Partial prostheses, replacing only some missing teeth and anchored to natural teeth with clasps or precision attachments;
  • Complete prostheses, used in cases of total edentulism and anchored to implants for greater stability and comfort;
  • Skeletal prostheses made with a chrome-cobalt metal framework to ensure greater strength and stability.

The Prosthesis Fabrication Process

The process begins with a digital scan of the patient’s mouth, enabling the creation of a detailed virtual model. The prosthesis is then designed using CAD-CAM technology and crafted in the laboratory by skilled technicians. After a clinical fitting to verify adaptation and comfort, the prosthesis is finalized and delivered to the patient. For aesthetic treatments, the Davide Sala Dental Clinic uses zirconia ceramic crowns, which combine strength, reliability, and beauty. Compared to veneers, zirconia crowns offer greater long-term durability and require minimal tooth reduction.

Maintenance and Care of Dental Prostheses

Proper oral hygiene is essential to keep the dental prosthesis in excellent condition. The dentist provides the patient with all necessary instructions for cleaning and maintenance, along with scheduling regular check-ups to ensure the device’s optimal performance.
