Implant-supported prosthetics

Implant-supported prosthetics at NikaDent

Implant-supported prosthetics make it possible to restore one, several, or a significant number of missing teeth. Dental implants serve as supports for crowns, bridges, or more complex prosthetic restorations.

At NikaDent in Kropyvnytskyi, the prosthetic treatment plan is developed individually after diagnostics and assessment of the bone tissue, implants, bite, and other factors.

When implant-supported prosthetics are used

• one tooth is missing;
• several teeth are missing;
• a significant part of the dental arch is missing;
• all teeth are missing in one jaw;
• more secure fixation of a prosthesis is required;
• a conventional removable denture does not provide sufficient comfort.

Single-tooth restoration on an implant

If one tooth is missing, an individual crown can be fixed to the implant after it has been placed and successfully integrated.

This method makes it possible to replace a missing tooth without using adjacent teeth as supports for a conventional dental bridge.

Restoration of several teeth

If several consecutive teeth are missing, implants can be used as supports for a bridge restoration.

The number of implants and the type of future prosthesis are determined individually depending on the size of the missing-tooth area, the condition of the bone tissue, and the distribution of chewing forces.

All-on-6 prosthetics

All-on-6 is one option for full-arch restoration in which a prosthetic restoration is supported by six dental implants.

The previous NikaDent website presented this technology as a solution for patients who need to restore the dental arch of the upper or lower jaw.

Advantages of the All-on-6 concept

• the possibility of restoring a complete dental arch;
• stable support for the prosthetic restoration;
• restoration of chewing function;
• no need to use a conventional complete removable denture;
• more even distribution of chewing forces due to the use of six implants.

Temporary and permanent prosthetics

After implant placement, a temporary prosthetic restoration may be used at a certain stage of treatment. After the required period and evaluation of the implants, it may be replaced with a permanent prosthesis.

The material, design, and timing of prosthetic treatment are determined by the dentist according to the individual treatment plan.

What the treatment plan depends on

The choice of prosthetic treatment depends on many factors:

• the number of missing teeth;
• the condition of the bone tissue;
• the number and position of implants;
• the condition of the gums;
• bite characteristics;
• the type of future prosthetic restoration;
• the need for additional treatment before prosthetics.
