Replacement of missing teeth: crown and bridges and dentures

Prosthodontics is a specialized field within dentistry focused on the replacement of missing teeth and restoring oral function, aesthetics, and comfort. This branch of dentistry encompasses various treatments such as crown and bridge restorations, dentures, and maxillofacial prosthesis. Crown and bridge restorations involve placing caps over damaged or decayed teeth to restore their shape, size, strength, and improve their appearance.

Dentures are removable appliances used to replace missing natural teeth to improve chewing ability, speech, and facial aesthetics. With the advancement in technology, now there are ways to fix the dentures on the implants which is called implant supported denture. Maxillofacial
prostheses are custom-made devices that replace missing parts of the face, jaw or palate due to trauma, surgery or congenital defects. We use advanced techniques and materials to create durable, functional, and aesthetically pleasing solutions for patients with missing teeth or facial
deformities with the help and support of specialized labs.

We also provide a special prosthesis called obturator which is used to close an opening or gap in the oral cavity. It’s often employed after surgeries or injuries that create such openings, or to help with congenital conditions where there’s a gap between the oral and nasal cavities.
