Prosthodontic Treatment

What is Prosthesis Treatment?

Including diagnosis and treatment planning of patients with missing or lost teeth and/or maxillofacial tissues; It is the specialty of dentistry concerned with the use of biocompatible materials and the maintenance of oral function, comfort, appearance and health. It covers areas such as removable prosthesis, fixed prosthesis, implantology, TMJ disorders and maxillofacial prosthesis.

What are the Types of Prosthesis?

Removable Prosthesis

They are prostheses that replace teeth in a fully or partially edentulous dental arch. They can be put on and removed by the patient. The retention of the prosthesis is provided by teeth, oral tissues, implants or a combination of these.

Removable Partial Denture

They are prostheses that replace teeth in a partially edentulous dental arch. It is especially applied in case of periodontal weak teeth or long toothless areas. The retention of the prosthesis is provided by clasps and precision holders.

Complete Denture

They are removable prostheses that replace all teeth and associated tissues of the upper and lower jaws. The retention of the prosthesis is provided by the surrounding tissues.

Fixed Prostheses

These are prostheses that cover a prepared tooth, root or implant with the help of cement. Fixed prostheses that cannot be removed by the patient are made of metal or porcelain.

crown

They are fixed prostheses in which a single tooth with tissue loss is covered with metal, porcelain or combinations.

Maryland Bridge

They are fixed prostheses that are cemented to dental tissues, especially enamel. The supported teeth are acidified to assist with the cement. It is generally used for front tooth loss.

Bridge

These are fixed prostheses used for the loss of one or more teeth. A bridge supported by teeth adjacent to the toothless area is created to replace the missing teeth.

laminated

These are treatments in which a thin layer of porcelain is applied to the surface of teeth with aesthetic problems in the desired color, size and shape.

Telescope Crown

These are crowns produced to be placed on a primary structure. Primary structure; Another crown may be a bar or structure that provides appropriate rigidity. It is applied in the presence of crooked or extruded teeth that will cause compatibility problems with the prosthesis.

Inlay, Onlay

These are fixed restorations used on teeth whose tissue loss is too great to be filled and which do not require a crown.

Implant Prosthesis

These are prostheses whose retention or support is provided by implants. They can be planned as mobile or fixed.

Maxillofacial Prosthesis

They are prostheses that repair and/or replace missing stomatognathic and craniofacial structures with regularly or electively removable or non-removable prostheses.

What is Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) Disorder?

It is a disorder in the functions of the TMJ due to disorders in the joint structure or tissues around the joint. TMJ disorder affects the entire stomatognathic system, which consists of oral tissues, head and neck muscles, and ligaments. Discomfort; It is characterized by pain and tenderness in the muscle or joint itself, limitation of jaw movements and noise.

TMJ disorders are treated with multidisciplinary studies.

What is Zircon?

Zircon; It is a type of ceramic used in the restoration of broken, damaged or decayed teeth. Since zircon mimics the color and transparency of natural tooth enamel very well, its compatibility with natural teeth is very high. Thus, aesthetic and durable prostheses that provide the perfect smile are applied.

Advantages of Zircon Restorations

  • Zircon crowns are highly aesthetic and imitate natural teeth very well.
  • Zirconia is an extremely strong and durable material. It has very high resistance to chipping, cracking and abrasion. Zirconia coatings are durable enough to withstand biting and chewing forces for a long time.
  • Zirconia coatings are produced precisely using computer-aided design and manufacturing technology. This ensures a personalized fit, reduces the risk of errors and increases overall comfort and function.
  • Zircon crowns provide high durability without requiring a metal infrastructure.
  • Zirconia coatings are highly resistant to staining and discoloration. They retain their natural appearance for a long time and reduce the need for repair or renovation.

What is All On Four Treatment?

All on four is a treatment procedure that fixes the prosthesis with the use of implants in edentulous patients. By placing four implants at certain angles, the prosthesis is applied and comfort is provided to the patient. This technique increases the use of bone in atrophic jaws, reduces the need for regenerative treatment, and minimizes complications and costs.

Who Can Get All On Four Treatment?

  • Patients with alveolar bone of sufficient width and height.
  • Patients who have lost all their teeth for various reasons.
  • Patients with suitable general health conditions.
  • Patients without uncontrolled systemic disease.
  • Patients who will not receive radiotherapy or chemotherapy treatment in the near future.
