Title: Fixed tooth replacement


1
FIXED TOOTH REPLACEMENT IN CHENNAI
2
  • When all teeths are missing and in such condition
    that they need to be replaced, a fixed bridge
    anchored to dental implants is the best permanent
    solution. It is possible to replace a full jaw
    with fixed bridge and dental implants which
    results in a permanent and a stable solution.

DENTAL CROWNS
  • Crowns are fixed devices that are cemented onto
    existing teeth or implants by a dentist.They are
    used commonly to entirely cover or "cap" a
    decayed tooth or cover an implant. crowns can be
    used to improve a tooths appearance, shape, and
    alignment . Gaps caused by missing teeth can lead
    the remaining teeth to shift, which can result in
    a bad bite.

IMPLANT SUPPORTED BRIDGE
  • They are similar to a regular bridge. When an
    implant-supported bridge is used, one implant is
    installed for each missing tooth.A drawback of
    cemented implant-supported bridges are that they
    cannot be easily removed as they are permanently
    fixed.Like that, implant-supported bridges reduce
    the need for "cutting down" adjacent teeth and
    can have a better long-term prognosis for dental
    patients.

IMPLANT SUPPORTED COMPLETE DENTURE
  • complete denture is an appliance replacing all
    the teeth of one jaw, as well as associated
    structures of the jaw.
  • fixed partial denture is a partial denture held
    in position by attachments to adjacent prepared
    natural teeth, roots, or implants called also
    bridge.
  • implant denture is an artificial denture or
    single tooth retained and stabilized by a
    framework or post implanted in the bone.

6
SINGLE TEETH REPLACEMENT
  • Teeth can be replaced with a fixed bridge if
    there are teeth in the area that are adequate in
    number and strong to support the artificial
    teeth. In order to construct a bridge, the
    nearest teeth are prepared by reducing their size
    to remove all the enamel, making room for the
    prosthetic tooth restoration. A prosthetic tooth
    can be suspended between adjacent teeth in this
    way to provide a functional and cosmetic
    replacement for the missing tooth.

DENTAL IMPLANTS
  • Dental implants are replacement tooth roots.
    Implants provide a strong foundation for
    removable replacement or permanent teeth that
    are made to match your natural teeth.

8
DENTAL BRIDGES
  • Dental bridges are commonly used to cover a space
    if there is missing one or more teeth. They are
    cemented to natural teeth or implants surrounding
    the space where the tooth once stood. It helps in
    restoring smile and ability to properly chew and
    speak. Helps in maintaining shape of the face
    and prevent remaining teeth from drifting out of
    position
