Fixed Prostheses
The fixed denture is fixed to the prepared teeth and cannot be removed by the patient himself.
We have several types of fixed prostheses:
- Crowns (can be metal-porcelain, zirconia-porcelain, palladium-porcelain, gold-porcelain). Crowns are for a single teeth with healthy root.
- Bridges (can be made of metal-porcelain, zirconia-porcelain, gold-porcelain). Here the tooth that has been removed is replaced by a denture containing the removed tooth and the teeth next to it. The missing tooth together with the pillar teeth form the bridge.
- Denture on implants, in this case the missing tooth root is replaced with a titanium implant or biocompatible alloy and a fixed denture is screwed or cemented on top.
