Dental Prosthesis

Benefits of Dental Prosthetics at Trident Clinics in Bucharest

Restoring the dentition with a dental prosthesis is crucial for both health and self-esteem. At Trident Clinics in Bucharest, we use the latest technologies and the highest quality materials to create dental prostheses, aiming for flawless functionality and a natural appearance, along with durability and resilience.

Choosing the best dental prosthetic solution for Trident patients is a collaborative effort among all specialists involved in the restoration process, based on thorough consultations and imaging investigations performed at the clinic.

Once we determine the most suitable type of dental prosthesis for your compatibility, we will explain the steps involved in the dental restoration and how long it will take for you to enjoy a new, flawless smile. Our team will guide you through each step of achieving your perfect smile.

Types of Dental Prostheses Available at Trident

Dental prostheses can be either complete, if the dentition is completely compromised or if the patient has only 2-3 remaining teeth, or partial, if there are 4-5 viable teeth in the arch that can support a prosthesis.

Additionally, dental prostheses can be fixed, removable, or semi-removable.

At Trident Bucharest, we have solutions for any situation requiring dental prosthetics.

Fixed Dental Prosthesis

This category includes dental crowns, dental bridges, and implant-supported prostheses. Crowns and bridges supported by natural teeth are fixed using cementation, while implant-supported bridges and prostheses can be secured either by cementation or screwing.

Dental Crown

A dental crown is a small prosthesis used by dentists to restore a compromised or missing tooth. It can be fixed onto a tooth that has been prepared through devitalization and shaping or onto an implant.

At Trident Bucharest, our dental restoration specialists use the most durable and aesthetically pleasing materials for dental crowns, including ceramic and zirconia.

Dental Bridge

A dental bridge is used for partial edentulism and typically consists of at least three elements—the missing tooth and its support points. At Trident, bridges are made from durable materials with a natural appearance, such as ceramic and/or zirconia.

A dental bridge can be fixed onto natural teeth after they have been shaped (and possibly devitalized) or onto implants.

Implant-Supported Prosthesis

Implant-supported prostheses are the most advanced type of dental prosthesis, offering excellent stability, improved chewing and speaking abilities, a natural appearance, easy maintenance, and a very long lifespan.

Implant-supported prostheses provide a very rapid restoration option, particularly with the All-on-4 or All-on-6 immediate loading implants. Patients can have a new, fully functional set of teeth within 24 hours. The process includes immediate provisional prosthesis placement on implants, followed by a healing period of 2-4 months for gum recovery and implant integration, before moving to the final prosthesis.

The final implant-supported prosthesis at Trident is made from ceramic or zirconia, which are the most advanced materials for both functionality and aesthetics.

Removable Dental Prosthesis

A removable dental prosthesis is a type of dental prosthesis that does not require cementation but is anchored to existing teeth. This type of prosthesis can be detached for cleaning.

Telescopic Removable Dental Prosthesis

Recommended for significant edentulism with 2-3 well-placed teeth in the arch, the telescopic removable dental prosthesis involves two steps:

1. Crowning the Remaining Teeth: The remaining teeth, which become support points (or primary telescopes), are covered with metal crowns (chrome-cobalt alloy) fixed with cement.
2. Securing the Prosthesis: The actual prosthesis, which contains secondary telescopes, is anchored onto these support points. This prosthesis is made from resin.

Telescopic Bridge

The telescopic bridge is superior in terms of aesthetics compared to the telescopic prosthesis, as it is made from ceramic.

It is recommended for partial edentulism when other denture techniques are not suitable after evaluating the patient’s condition.

Skeletal Removable Dental Prosthesis

A skeletal prosthesis is a partial removable prosthesis fixed onto natural teeth, not implants, and must be removed and cleaned daily. Dentists use this option for patients with significant but not total edentulism and who are contraindicated for implants.

At Trident Bucharest, the skeletal dental prosthesis is made from high-quality materials—the infrastructure is metallic (chrome-cobalt alloy), and the aesthetic part is made from ceramic or zirconia for a natural look.

Removable Dental Prosthesis

Typically, Trident Clinics specialists use this type of dental prosthesis as a temporary solution until a more functional and aesthetic prosthesis can be provided. The removable dental prosthesis is made from resin and comes in various types depending on the specific dental issue.

Complete Removable Dental Prosthesis

This is the classic prosthesis used for total edentulism, restoring one or both arches.

This type of prosthesis is secured by suction, creating a vacuum between the prosthesis and the gums. Additional fixation is provided by special adhesives.

It must be removed daily for cleaning.

Partial Removable Dental Prosthesis

Used for partial edentulism with the loss of more than 2 teeth, the partial removable dental prosthesis is a smaller version of the complete prosthesis described above.

It rests on the gums and is anchored to the remaining teeth with clasps. It must be removed daily for cleaning.

Kemeny Removable Dental Prosthesis

This is a small, provisional prosthetic appliance (1-2 teeth) used immediately after tooth extraction or implant placement so that the patient can resume social activities. This type of prosthesis rests on the gum tissue and is anchored to adjacent teeth with esthetic clasps that match the color of the teeth.

The Kemeny prosthesis is replaced with a definitive dental restoration—such as a bridge or implant prosthesis—after the gums have healed (following extraction) or after the implant has integrated.
