Tempo de leitura ~ 2 min Número de leituras: 2222

Só se pode falar de próteses dentárias bem-sucedidas se o paciente receber não apenas uma estrutura protética durável, mas também confortável. Por sua vez, para garantir o máximo de conforto, é necessário cuidar da máxima autenticidade da prótese dentária. Em particular, é importante preservar as características da superfície oclusal dos dentes inferiores e superiores - a superfície de mastigação e a borda incisal - na prótese.

Uma ferramenta comum para determinar a orientação e a trajetória corretas dos maxilares do paciente, bem como a direção das curvas sagital e transversal, é o arco facial. Os dados obtidos durante sua aplicação eram usados para criar impressões a partir das quais o técnico criava a prótese. Hoje, no entanto, foram desenvolvidos equipamentos mais modernos e eficientes - o analisador do plano HIP, que é usado pelos dentistas ortopédicos da ROOTT ...

The crown on the tooth is wobbling

" - Doctor, my crown on my tooth is wobbling, what should I do?" Such a question is not uncommon in the dental office. Not always patients understand why, instead of just fixing the crown, the doctor appoints an examination.

The task of the prosthodontist is not just to fix the prosthesis, but to find out the reason why the crown wobbles after installation.

Without examination, it is impossible to make an accurate diagnosis, and if the cause is not eliminated, the problem will occur again and again.

What causes the crown to wobble?

Part of the dental examination is the collection of anamnesis, especially if the prosthesis is several years old and with the problem you came to the wrong doctor who installed it.

The fact is that there are objective causes of crown loosening.

Dental cement changes its structure over time, and its adhesive (bonding) properties are lost. Crowns on the front teeth are particularly pron…

A crown has come off a tooth: causes and methods of restoration

An artificial crown is placed to strengthen the crown part of the tooth, extend its life, and mask cosmetic defects. The crown needs a support: your own tooth, an inlay or an implant. Crowns are fixed prosthetics, they are designed to restore the tooth row, restore the beauty of the smile and fully participate in the chewing process. Unfortunately, there are situations when a patient discovers that the crown has fallen out. Why does this happen and what is the algorithm of actions if this happens?

Causes of dislocation

Prosthetics is a process that involves 3 people: the prosthodontist, the dental technician and the patient. Each of them determines how long the restoration will last.

The dentist is responsible for making sure the tooth is properly prepared. The main causes of misalignment are due to improper preparation of the tooth:

Odor from under the crown: causes and consequences

An unpleasant odor from under the crown of the tooth indicates that food residues have gotten under the restoration. They decompose, multiplying the number of bacteria daily and hourly. Pathogens penetrate the hard tissues of the tooth, because the tooth is ground down and there is no protective barrier. The hard tissue begins to rot. In most cases, teeth are depulped before dentures. They remove the nerve-vascular bundle, the pulp, which in its intact state signals problems with pain. Without the pulp, pain is absent and it is not uncommon for caries to completely destroy the hard tissue.

Symptoms of infection may be only sudden loosening of the crown due to tissue loss and a putrid odor.

Causes of tooth odor under the crown

Most often, it is incompetence of the doctor. The desire to save money can lead to a small dentistry with an inexperienced doctor. This, in turn, affects treatment planning, tooth preparation, taking impressions, determ…

Does it hurt to put in a crown?

The crown remains the most popular prosthetic solution for a single missing tooth. However, many patients who undergo this procedure are interested in the question, does it hurt to place a crown and how long does it take? Q: I have a badly decayed upper third tooth. I don't want to remove it, but I'm afraid that it will hurt to put a crown. Answer: Absolutely all procedures carried out in ROOTT dentistry are painless: starting with the installation of crowns, ending with implantation with the use of an effective local anesthetic. Question: I want to put a crown on a broken tooth (lower 4). Is there a difference in sensation if I put a metal-ceramic or zirconium crown? Answer: Zirconium crowns allow for the removal of a smaller layer of enamel during preparation. This means that in most cases the nerve can be saved. For metal-ceramics, more enamel must be removed because the crown itself is "thicker" (otherwise an overly thin layer of ceramic will not hide the met…

Bleeding from the hole of the tooth: causes and ways to stop bleeding

Tooth extraction is a surgical procedure that cannot be performed without damaging tissue and blood vessels. This causes bleeding from the tooth cavity. The blood forms a clot that protects the wound from bacterial invasion. Usually, it stops discharging from the wound after a few minutes, but there are cases when bleeding continues for hours or even days.

Causes of bleeding from the hole of the extracted tooth

In dentistry, there are general, local and mixed causes. Bleeding can occur due to a doctor's error, non-compliance with the recommendations of the patient or taking medications to treat common diseases.

Local causes Rupture of blood vessels during traumatic surgery; Breakage of the root septum or alveolus (hole); Inflammation in the area of the tooth that was extracted; the action of adrenaline (after the constriction of blood vessels, there is a second phase - their expansion); melting of blood clots blocking the vessels under the in…

Contraindications to prosthetics

Reading time ~ 2 min Number of readings: 2198

The first question when a patient is given the verdict of having one or more teeth extracted is the question of prosthetics. Replacement dentistry techniques offer a spectrum of approaches in terms of fixed and removable restoration. A patient planning dental prosthetics understands the differences of each method and studies reviews about them

Before choosing a restoration option, make sure that you have no prohibitions to dentures with this method. The doctor is confident in the effectiveness of the technology used, and in the safety for a particular patient.

For the most part, the prohibitions are relative. They are removable, and relate to the installation of fixed prostheses (crowns, bridges).

Classification of contraindications is quite simple, namely, "prohibitions" are divided into local and general. Let's consider their essence …
