Speaking of high technology, everyone involuntarily imagines innovative developments that allow you to solve a problem or task as quickly and efficiently as possible. This is exactly what patients expect from modern methods of tooth replacement when they go to the dentists with a tooth that has been destroyed or needs to be extracted. And since unfortunately no way to grow a new tooth has been invented yet, let’s take a look at new and proven tooth restoration systems.

• Many people expect the latest denture methods to restore their teeth as quickly and gently as possible. In particular, we are talking about prosthetics without grinding. Indeed, it was the need to grind and sometimes even depulp the neighboring living teeth that discouraged many people from deciding to install a bridge. Modern dental technology has partially solved this problem by offering patients the so-called Maryland bridge. Its installation does not require grinding the supporting teeth, only microscopic notches on the sides, in which a fiberglass beam is fixed. It then becomes the basis for subsequent tooth augmentation.
• A pleasant new feature in prosthetic dentistry is the possibility to restore any number of missing teeth in three days (regardless of the period of their absence and the amount of bone tissue). This has become possible thanks to the use of high-tech implantation systems ROOTT, when the titanium rod installed by the basal method is almost immediately covered with a light plastic crown. It adequately fulfills its functions for 12 months, after which it can be replaced by a permanent version.
• It should not be overlooked that for patients with complete adentia, the list of available methods for restoring chewing function is now considerably longer than the banal removable prosthesis. Thus, we are talking about microimplantation and installation of a conditionally removable structure made of any type of material of choice – metal-ceramic, metal-ceramic on precious metals, zirconium, etc.
• If it is necessary to prosthetize a tooth that has not been extracted, but destroyed, an alternative to crowns can be the use of ceramic inlays.

It is important that the clinic to which you entrust the prevention and treatment of your teeth keeps up with the latest developments in world dentistry.
