What does it involve?
After assessing the remaining teeth and supporting tissues, a suitable solution is agreed: a crown, a bridge or a denture.
The stages of preparation, impressions, try-in and final fitting then follow, carried out together with the dental laboratory.
When is it recommended?
- a fractured or heavily broken-down tooth
- a root-treated tooth that has become fragile
- one or more missing teeth
- difficulty chewing
- older restorations that no longer fit well
What to expect
Prosthetic treatment takes place over several appointments. Adapting to new work can take a few days, and fine adjustments are part of the process.
Frequently asked questions
How long does a crown take?
Several appointments are usually needed, depending on laboratory stages and any adjustments required.
How do I care for prosthetic work?
Careful brushing, daily interdental cleaning and regular check-ups. The margin where the work meets the gum needs particular attention.
Will it look artificial?
The aim is a result that is as natural as possible in shape and shade, within the limits of the clinical situation and the chosen material.
