The process of tooth replacement – Let's get started!

The process of dental prosthesis replacement always begins with a personalized consultation. During the process, we not only diagnose the exact nature of the tooth loss but also take into account your overall health condition and individual needs. It is important to note that every case is different, so selecting the appropriate dental replacement solution also requires a personalized approach.

1.

Consultation and diagnosis

During the first appointment, the dentist conducts a detailed examination, during which they assess the condition of the teeth and gums and identify the most suitable technique for replacing missing teeth. For the assessment, it may be necessary to perform digital X-ray imaging or even a 3D CT scan to obtain an accurate picture of the position of the teeth and the condition of the bone structure. These examinations allow for the evaluation of the jawbone’s density and quality, which is crucial, for example, for creating implant-supported dental prosthetics, as the implant requires a stable foundation.
2.

Developing the treatment plan

Based on the diagnosis, the dentist prepares a detailed treatment plan that takes into account the desired dental restoration solution, your lifestyle, budget, and aesthetic expectations. The treatment plan determines what type of dental restoration will be needed, what materials will be used, and how long the entire process will take. It is important to discuss all questions at this stage, and for the patient to fully understand the steps of the proposed procedures.
3.

The intervention process

Depending on the type of selected dental prosthesis, the intervention may consist of several steps. Fixed prostheses, such as dental implant placement, for example, may take several months to ensure that the implant is securely anchored in the jawbone, while the creation of a simple zirconium crown can be completed in a few weeks. At Rosental Dental, we use the latest techniques and tools during interventions to make the treatment as quick and pain-free as possible. In some cases, a temporary prosthesis is placed after tooth extraction while the final prosthesis is being prepared.
4.

Control and aftercare

After the construction of the dental prosthesis, it is important to regularly check its condition and make further adjustments if necessary. Proper aftercare increases the lifespan of the dental prosthesis and ensures long-term comfort. The regular check-ups prescribed for the patient allow the dentist to detect any changes or complications in a timely manner and intervene quickly if needed.

Types of tooth replacements

There are several dental restoration options available, which address different problems. Each type has its advantages and disadvantages, so it is important to consult a professional to choose the most suitable solution.  

Crown
A crown is a type of dental restoration used when the tooth can no longer be preserved with its own tissues, but the root is still healthy. Crowns are usually made of ceramic, metal-ceramic, or zirconium, and they match the natural tooth color perfectly. The crown provides stability and strong protection for the remaining parts of the tooth, thus preventing further damage
Bridge
A dental replacement with a bridge is recommended when multiple teeth are missing next to each other, and the remaining teeth are suitable to provide a stable foundation for the dental restoration. Bridges are most commonly made from metal-ceramic or zirconium materials and offer an aesthetically pleasing solution that can restore the complete smile. The crown bridge is a fixed dental restoration that does not need to be removed and serves the patient for many years, making it particularly recommended for those who are looking for a stable and reliable solution.
Implant
The implant is one of the most innovative and effective solutions for dental prosthetics. A screw made of titanium is placed into the jawbone, providing a stable foundation for the crown placed on it or even a complete set of teeth. The implant is a long-term solution that perfectly restores the feeling and function of a natural tooth. It is particularly recommended for those seeking a stable and durable solution. In the case of implants, proper bone density is necessary, so bone grafting may be required in certain instances.
Removable dentures
A removable denture is a traditional dental prosthetic solution that is used when the patient struggles with significant tooth loss or even requires full dental replacement, and there are not enough stable teeth available in the jawbone. This type is a cost-effective solution and can be made from various materials. The advantage of removable dentures is that they are easy to clean; however, wearing them requires some adjustment. Modern versions, such as sliding removable prostheses, are much more comfortable, as special retainers can help with a more stable fit.
Inlay/onlay
nlays and onlays are small dental restorations that are most commonly used when the tooth decay is greater than what a filling can address, but a large portion of the tooth is still intact. These inserts are exceptionally durable and aesthetic, and they preserve the original structure of the tooth. By using inlays/onlays, the need for a full crown can be avoided, which minimizes the pressure on the tooth while preserving its natural functions and appearance.
Combined dental prosthesis
A combined dental prosthesis is a solution that combines fixed and removable prostheses, especially when the patient suffers from partial tooth loss and the remaining teeth do not provide adequate stability for a complete fixed prosthesis. In this case, a bridge or crown is placed on the stable teeth, while a precisely fitting removable partial denture replaces the extensive tooth loss, which connects to the fixed parts with special clips or hidden fasteners.
