Prosthesis

Dental prosthetics at NikaDent

Dental prosthetics help restore missing or severely damaged teeth, restore normal chewing function, and recreate the natural appearance of the smile.

At NikaDent in Kropyvnytskyi, the type of prosthetic restoration is selected individually after examination and diagnostics. The dentist takes into account the number and condition of the remaining teeth, bite characteristics, gum condition, and the patient's preferences.

When dental prosthetics may be needed

• a tooth is severely damaged and cannot be restored with a standard filling or restoration;
• one tooth is missing;
• several teeth are missing;
• a significant part of the dental arch has been lost;
• chewing function needs to be restored;
• the shape and aesthetics of the teeth need to be improved;
• prosthetic restoration is required after implantation.

Dental crowns

A crown is used to restore a tooth when a significant portion of its natural structure has been lost. It helps restore the tooth's shape and function and protects the remaining tissues from further damage.

Porcelain-fused-to-metal crowns

A porcelain-fused-to-metal crown has a metal framework covered with ceramic material. These restorations combine strength with an aesthetic appearance and can be used to restore different areas of the dental arch.

Ceramic crowns

Ceramic restorations make it possible to reproduce the natural color and translucency of teeth. These properties are particularly important when restoring teeth in the aesthetically significant smile zone.

Zirconia crowns

Zirconia is used to manufacture modern prosthetic restorations that combine strength, precision, and a natural appearance.

Dental bridges

A dental bridge may be used to replace one or several missing teeth. Depending on the clinical situation, the restoration may be supported by natural teeth or dental implants.

Removable dentures

Removable dentures may be used when a significant number of teeth are missing or in cases of complete tooth loss.

The previous NikaDent website presented several types of removable restorations:

• acrylic removable dentures;
• nylon dentures;
• clasp dentures;
• complete removable dentures;
• implant-supported dentures;
• dentures manufactured using BPS technology.

1. Consultation with a prosthodontist.
2. Examination and diagnostics.

Which type of prosthetic restoration should you choose

There is no universal solution. For one patient, a crown may be the optimal option, while another may require a bridge, removable denture, or implant-supported restoration.

The prosthodontist helps select the most appropriate option based on the condition of the teeth, functional needs, aesthetics, and the specifics of the clinical situation.
