A covered denture is a prosthetic device that is used to restore missing teeth to restore bite function and a beautiful smile. It is a lightweight structure that is attached to existing teeth. If the teeth are completely missing, the prosthesis is attached to implants or by suction to the palate (on the upper jaw) or by the height of the alveolar ridge on the lower jaw. The design is comfortable to wear and you quickly get used to it.

The features of covered dentures include the following aspects:

Invasive methods are not the only way to restore the maxillofacial apparatus, both aesthetically and practically.

One of the most difficult problems with dentures is complete adentia - the loss of all teeth on one or both jaws. The way out of this situation is a full denture. At the moment, there are many varieties of dentures for both upper and lower jaws, which differ both in technical features and in the final cost. Next, let's look at all the key features of treating complete adentia through the use of dentures in detail.

At the moment, full removable dentures are presented in many different variants of technical design, which allows each patient to choose an option that can close the problem and fit into the budget.

One of the significant differences between the models of dentures is the material from which they are made and the method of their application. At the moment, there are several main types of prostheses according to this parameter. Removable prostheses, these include:

At the moment, there are many different technical solutions that can provide an effective restoration of the tooth row on both the upper and lower jaw. One of the most popular is the installation of bridge prostheses.

Bridges are prosthetic structures, the installation of which is carried out with the support of healthy teeth. The placement of such prostheses is carried out on an adhesive basis, which is reflected in the name of the design.

Due to the fact that they are created on the basis of a special medical polymer, it is possible to provide the tightest fit due to the increased flexibility of the design. In addition, they are quite light and elastic, whic…

When it comes to the need to replace three or more teeth that are next to each other, there are several different options available. One of the most effective is implant-supported bridges. This solution has a number of advantages that favorably distinguish it from its competitors. The use of fixed structures of this format allows you to quickly restore the maxillofacial apparatus and achieve the greatest both aesthetic appeal and full functional recovery.

An implant-supported dental bridge, unlike adhesive dentures or other removable bridges, has one distinctive feature. Healthy teeth are not affected in any way. Instead, special dental implants are used as a support, which are implanted into the jaw in the place where teeth are missing

This makes it possible to cover a larger number of missing teeth, as well as to ensure that the living teeth next to the missing teeth remain healthy, as their integrity is not compromise…
