Have any missing or damaged teeth?
A dental prosthesis is an artificial element that serves to restore the anatomy of one or more teeth, allowing the patient to recover the functionality and esthetics of their dentition.
These are custom-fabricated in materials such as acrylic or porcelain. For example, in a denture, its base mimics natural gum tissue, with a careful pigmentation known as polymethylmethacrylate, which prevents the accumulation of bacteria.
The function of dental prosthetics is to rehabilitate the dentition’s physiological processes, such as chewing and swallowing food and avoiding speech problems.
On the other hand, the recovery of dental aesthetics is another reason to pick this treatment.
Depending on the severity of your case, you might want to look into dental implants, which adhere to the jawbone through titanium screws, crowns, which cover damage in a natural-looking way, dentures, which replace a whole set of teeth, and veneers, which cover discoloration and chips.
