Prosthesis treatment, also known as prosthetic dentistry, is a specialized branch of dentistry focused on restoring missing teeth and oral structures to improve function, aesthetics, and overall quality of life. At Green Village Medical, we offer comprehensive prosthesis treatment options tailored to each patient’s unique needs.

Understanding Prosthesis Treatment

Prosthesis treatment encompasses a variety of procedures and devices designed to replace missing teeth and restore oral function. This includes dental implants, bridges, dentures, and other prosthetic appliances. Whether a patient is missing one tooth, multiple teeth, or all of their teeth, prosthesis treatment offers solutions to restore a natural-looking smile and optimal oral health.

Types of Prosthesis Treatment
  1. Dental Implants: Dental implants are titanium posts surgically implanted into the jawbone to replace missing tooth roots. They provide a strong foundation for dental crowns, bridges, or dentures, offering stability and longevity.
  2. Dental Bridges: Dental bridges consist of one or more artificial teeth anchored to adjacent natural teeth or dental implants. They “bridge” the gap created by missing teeth, restoring chewing function and preventing adjacent teeth from shifting out of place.
  3. Dentures: Dentures are removable prosthetic devices that replace missing teeth and surrounding tissues. They come in various forms, including full dentures for patients missing all of their teeth and partial dentures for those missing several teeth.
  4. Implant-Supported Dentures: Implant-supported dentures are a type of overdenture that attaches to dental implants for enhanced stability and support. They offer a more secure fit compared to traditional dentures, allowing for improved chewing and speaking ability.
  5. All-on-4® Treatment Concept: The All-on-4® Treatment Concept is an innovative approach to full-arch rehabilitation that involves the placement of four dental implants to support a fixed prosthesis. It provides a permanent solution for patients with missing teeth or failing dentition.

Other Services

  • Restored Function: Prosthesis treatment restores the ability to chew, speak, and smile with confidence, improving overall oral function and quality of life.
  • Enhanced Aesthetics: Prosthetic devices are designed to closely resemble natural teeth and gums, restoring a natural-looking smile and facial appearance.
  • Improved Oral Health: By replacing missing teeth and supporting oral structures, prosthesis treatment helps maintain proper oral hygiene and prevent issues such as bone loss and gum recession.
  • Increased Confidence: Restoring a complete and healthy smile can boost self-esteem and confidence in social and professional settings.

The prosthesis treatment process typically involves several steps, including:

  1. Initial Consultation: A comprehensive oral examination and discussion of treatment options with a prosthodontist or dentist.
  2. Treatment Planning: Customized treatment plan development based on the patient’s oral health, preferences, and budget.
  3. Preparation: Tooth preparation or implant placement procedure, if necessary, to create a stable foundation for the prosthetic device.
  4. Prosthesis Fabrication: Fabrication of the prosthetic device using high-quality materials and advanced techniques to achieve a precise fit and natural appearance.
  5. Fitting and Adjustments: Fitting the prosthetic device in the mouth and making any necessary adjustments to ensure optimal comfort, function, and aesthetics.
  6. Follow-Up Care: Regular follow-up appointments to monitor the patient’s progress, address any concerns, and maintain the longevity of the prosthesis.

The lifespan of prosthetic devices varies depending on factors such as the type of prosthesis, oral hygiene practices, and overall oral health. With proper care and maintenance, dental implants, bridges, and dentures can last for many years.

While dental implants offer a durable and long-lasting solution for tooth replacement, not everyone is a candidate for implant surgery. Factors such as bone density, gum health, and medical history will determine eligibility for dental implant treatment.
