Prostodontics
This area of Dentistry allows the patient to recover missing teeth, improving, as a consequence, the aesthetics and chewing capability.
There are various possibilities of treatment, such as fixed or removable solutions that might be applied over teeth or implants. In the majority of cases, fixed solutions are preferable over the removable dentures, not only for the aesthetical and functional component but also because of the comfort they offer to patients.
Removable dentures
Removable dentures are supported directly by the gum and eventually by some of the existing teeth.
Fixed dentures
In this case of prostheses, artificial teeth are immovable. It is possible to produce single crowns, bridges of several elements or even full dental arches.
