Prosthetic dentistry
Crowns, bridges, reparation (restoration with tabs) - making your smile beautiful
Prosthetic dentistry is used for: - restoration of tissues of the damaged coronal part of the tooth with an artificial coating - crown or veneer, - replacement of a missing tooth with fixed (bridge) or removable overdenture (prostheses).
Dental plate
Dental plates are of two types - partial dentures, to replace one or more teeth, and total, when it is necessary to replace all the teeth in the jaw. Our clinic offers both types of prostheses. Most often, their manufacture, try-in and individual fitting to the patient's teeth takes from 2 to 4 appointments. Initially, it is necessary to consult with a dentist about the possibilities of making a prosthesis.
Dental crowns
Dental crowns are used in cases where the tooth is severely affected by caries, erosion or trauma. Our clinic offers several types of crowns: ceramic, metal-ceramic and zirconium (see the Frequently Asked Questions section).
Dental bridge
Dental bridges are fixed partial dentures that replace a missing tooth or group of teeth. Both ends of the bridge are attached to screwed-in implants or turned teeth, which thus lose their natural tissues. It is for this reason that we recommend restoring one missing tooth with an implant. The dental clinic “We Care” cooperates with various high-tech laboratories in Latvia, including “Lab 76”, “Dentalab”, “Baltic Dental Group”, “Dentālā Dizaina Studija” and others.

Frequently asked questions
-
What is the difference between the functionality of crowns made of different materials?
Ceramic crowns are made from pressed ceramic. They have a truly natural and aesthetic appearance, as they reflect light in the same way as natural teeth. Excellent for anterior restorations, but not suitable for bridges.
Metal-ceramic crowns are an aesthetic and durable solution, including the point of the price. These crowns have a metal frame inside, which is covered with a light porcelain or ceramic layer, which makes the crown durable and opaque.
Zirconium crowns are made of zirconium oxide, they are durable and do not lose their aesthetic appearance during operation. These crowns are very firmly attached to the tooth enamel, so they fit well to the gums.
-
When can implant prosthetics be performed?
During prosthetics on implants in our clinic, zirconium and ceramic constructions are most often used. Prosthetics can be started 4-6 months after the installation of the implant, allowing it to 'take root'. When everything has healed and the dentist has re-examined the implantation site, an impression is taken to make an independent crown or bridge.
-
How is prosthetics performed?
During the first consultation, the dentist assesses the general health of the patient's teeth and determines the most appropriate type of prosthesis. If the dentist and the patient have agreed on the manufacture of dentures, then at the end of the first consultation, an impression of the teeth is taken. And the dentist sends it to the technical laboratory for the manufacture of dentures. During nexts visits, the prostheses are tried on the patient and, if necessary, sent back to the technical laboratory for correction.

Prosthetic hygiene at home
In order for dentures, the patient's natural teeth and oral hygiene to be healthy, several conditions for the care of removable dentures and the oral cavity must be observed:
Dentures should be removed at night to allow the oral mucosa to rest and to reduce the risk of cavities and plaque formation. During sleep, the production of saliva is less, so saliva does not clear the oral cavity of bacteria.
Dentures should be cleaned with a toothbrush while taking them out of the mouth. There are also special toothbrushes and pastes for cleaning dentures.
After removing the prosthesis from the mouth, it is necessary to thoroughly brush the teeth. Even if one's own teeth are missing, the mouth should be brushed with an ultra-soft or surgical toothbrush to stimulate circulation and remove plaque.
To ensure the hygiene of the prosthesis, it is recommended to use special products (for example: tablets that dissolve in water) that disinfect the prosthesis.
