Dental prosthetics in Grodno

Modern dentistry works wonders. Even if you are completely toothless, you can restore a smile that is not only beautiful but also fully functional. Prosthetics is an art and science aimed at restoring your quality of life. Our orthodontists (prosthetists) are experienced specialists who will select the optimal solution specifically for your case.

When are prosthetics necessary?

• · More than 50% destruction of the crown of the tooth.
• · Missing one or more teeth.
• · Complete edentia (absence of all teeth).
• · Aesthetic defects: chips, cracks, gaps between teeth, unsatisfactory color that cannot be corrected by whitening.
• · The need to protect a tooth after root canal treatment (depulpation).

Types of prosthetics we offer in Grodno:

1. Fixed prosthetics (permanently fixed):

• · Crowns: "Caps" for a damaged tooth.
• · Metal-ceramics: The gold standard of strength and aesthetics.
• · Metal-free ceramics (E-max, zirconium dioxide): Maximum aesthetics, biocompatibility, and strength. Ideal for anterior teeth.
• · Bridges: A structure of several crowns that is attached to adjacent ground-down teeth or implants. Restores 1-3 missing teeth in a row.
• · Veneers/Lumineers: Ultra-thin ceramic shells for correcting the shape and color of the anterior teeth (aesthetic prosthetics).
• · Inlays (core and restorative): Microprostheses that restore severely damaged teeth, an alternative to fillings. A core inlay is the base for a crown.

2. Removable dentures (can be removed):

• · Acrylic and nylon dentures: Classic solutions for partial or complete absence of teeth. Affordable, but require adaptation.
• · Clasp dentures: Have a metal frame, making them more durable and compact. Attached with clasps (hooks) or attachments (micro-locks).

3. Implant-supported prosthetics (the most modern and reliable method):

• · Single crown on an implant: The best replacement for a lost tooth without grinding down adjacent teeth.
• · Implant-supported bridge: Restores several teeth in a row with the support of 2-3 implants.
• · Removable and complete dentures on implants (All-on-4, All-on-6): For complete tooth loss. The prosthesis is fixed on 4-6 implants, which provides incredible stability compared to a classic removable denture.

How does the dental prosthetics process work in Grodno?

• 1. Consultation and diagnostics: The doctor examines the oral cavity, conducts the necessary tests (X-ray, CT scan), and creates a treatment plan.
• 2. Preparation: Oral sanitation (treatment of caries, gums), if necessary, extraction of teeth that cannot be saved.
• 3. Preparation: Grinding down teeth to fit the future structure (for fixed types).
• 4. Taking impressions (casts): Traditionally or using digital scanning (intraoral scanner) for maximum accuracy.
• 5. Fitting and manufacturing: The prosthesis is created in the dental laboratory. An intermediate fitting is performed.
• 6. Fixation: The finished structure is finally installed and secured with special cement or a clasp.

FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions):

• · Is it painful to have a crown placed? The process is performed under local anesthesia and is completely painless.
• · How long do dentures last? The service life depends on the type: metal-ceramics - 10-15 years, zirconium - 20+ years, removable acrylic - 5-7 years.
• · Is it possible to get dentures without implants if you are completely toothless? Yes, with complete dentures. But implant-supported dentures are much more comfortable and functional.
• · How do I care for dentures? Fixed dentures - just like my own teeth (brushing, irrigator). Removable dentures require special products and cleaning outside the mouth.
