Dental prosthetics: false teeth

Despite the fact that modern dentistry has long been without pain, many of us are still afraid to treat our teeth. A man constantly postpones a trip to the dentist. Does not treat day, week, month. In the end, when he still decides on a painful, in his opinion, procedure, it turns out that the tooth can not be saved. There is a question of removal. This happens first with one tooth, then with the other. Over time, a person begins to feel a lack of teeth - chewing food is becoming more difficult, the smile looks, to put it mildly, unaesthetically. If the teeth are removed too much, the only option is the false teeth . The back of any dental prosthesis is the teeth, which the fans have to delay treatment too little. In this case, of course, you can use the method of implantation of teeth, in which titanium pins are implanted into the jaw. But this process lasts several months, and the procedure price is quite high. Therefore, many people use removable dental prosthetics.

When are removable dentures necessary?

The false jaws are used if the number of teeth is small, or there are none at all. Also, one can not do without removable dentures when the distance between the teeth is very large, and a permanent bridge can provoke an overload of supporting teeth and their rapid destruction. How much does the false jaw cost? On average, the price for a complete removable prosthesis varies between 12-18 thousand rubles.

How are dentures fastened?

Metal fasteners, attachments can be used to fasten the insertion jaws, and also the attachment can be carried out due to the elasticity of the prosthesis itself.

In the event that the prosthesis is fixed by metal clasps, they can be noticeable during conversation or a smile, which, of course, is not always acceptable. More convenient in this regard will be special locks - attachments. They perfectly fix and are easy to use. However, for this, it is necessary to treat adjacent teeth (two or more) under the cermets . In order not to treat adjacent teeth, you can use a nylon removable denture. It will be held by its elastic properties.

For the manufacture of removable dentures, as a rule, artificial teeth of factory domestic or imported production are used. The difference here will not only be in price. In comparison with domestic, imported plug-in jaws have a wider choice of color and tooth shape. They also have high strength, which reduces their erasure. This is achieved due to the fact that imported plastic has a higher density. This has a positive effect on the color stability and durability of the prosthesis.

In addition, plastics are of different polymerization: hot and cold. In the first case, a high temperature is required for curing. This is not very good, since any material after cooling will shrink. As a result, there are small inaccuracies and discrepancies between the jaw of the patient and the prosthesis obtained. In the second case plastic shrinkage does not occur. Volumetric distortions are eliminated by polymerization at room temperature.

Technology of manufacturing of dentures

Before making false-jaws, the patient is removed from the mold, individual spoons are made from plastic. With the help of samples determine the fixation of the spoon on the jaw and correct. The edges of the future removable prosthesis are selected individually, for which the spoon is applied with the necessary material and again conducts samples. After such procedures, the impression is taken with another material.

In order for the bite to be reproduced with high accuracy, the technician must take into account all the nuances that the doctor tells him: both the temporomandibular joint, the jaw, the middle vertical line and the horizontal plane of the future prostheses are interposed. And this concerns not only the statistical state, but also the dynamics: the movements of the lower jaw relative to the upper should be accurately reproduced. The color and shape of the artificial teeth is also determined.

Plunging jaw on suckers

Dental prostheses with the effect of suction have a number of advantages and therefore apply them today quite often:

• Have a relatively low cost;

• Aesthetically look;

• Convenient to operate;

• Have a long period of use;

• Well restore chewing function.

They can be made from polyurethane, acrylic, nylon. Outwardly, such prostheses are absolutely not like artificial ones. They can hardly be distinguished from natural teeth. They are perfectly attached due to the suction to the gums of the upper jaw. The disadvantage of prostheses on the suckers is that they do not fit very tightly to the lower jaw, as it is more mobile. Therefore, dentists use implants to fix dentures or try to keep at least a few teeth on the lower jaw, in order to fix the prosthesis to them.

Finally

Comfortable and quality removable jaws are an achievement of modern dentistry. However, even the best prostheses can not replace natural teeth. Therefore, always monitor the condition of the oral cavity and visit the dentist on time.
