What Are Dental Prosthetics?
Dental prosthetics or dental prostheses are pieces of dental equipment that replace missing teeth or correct teeth and other oral defects. Prosthetics is a broad term that can include everything from bridges, dentures, veneers and crowns. Dental prosthetics are surgically placed by dental professionals and can be removable or permanently fixed into a patient’s mouth, depending on their specific treatment needs.
Dental Prosthetics vs Dental Implants – What’s The Difference?
Dental prosthetics are often confused with implants, but there is a significant difference between them: implants are permanently attached to a patient’s jawbone, whereas prosthetics aren’t. Implants are used to attach the prosthesis to the patient’s tooth root. There are a couple of other differences between the two, including the fact that the patient’s surrounding teeth and soft tissues support the prostheses, whereas dental implants are supported by the jawbone. Both are incredibly natural in appearance and have been designed thoughtfully to ensure optimal matching to a patient’s natural teeth.
What Are The Benefits Of Dental Prosthetics?
- Dental prosthetics help to improve the appearance of damaged teeth by helping to restore their shape and size. By trying to revert them back to their natural appearance, dental prosthetics play a major role in patient comfort and confidence.
- Not only are they an aesthetic solution, but they also have practical functions, such as supporting the jawbone and improving chewing. They also help to reduce oral bone deterioration and loss, which is caused by tooth loss, particularly when missing teeth are not replaced.
- They also help to improve a patient’s overall oral health by preventing gum disease and overcrowding, filling any gaps and supporting weakened or damaged teeth.
