Temporary denture for one tooth

Dental implantology offers the restoration of teeth in very different condition.Today, to restore a tooth even without a root is a very real and feasible task.This dental process takes quite a long time - from a month to six months, depending on the complexity of the operations.Between operations, a temporary prosthesis for the front tooth is usually installed.

Dental Restoration Mechanism

In dentistry, screw type prostheses are most commonly used.They consist of the following construction: a titanium screw replacing the root of the tooth, serves as a fastener for the crown made of the material chosen by the doctor and the patient.This design allows to achieve reliability and durability of the installation.

Screw type prosthesis

Implantation occurs as follows: first, the dentist removes the tooth, nerve, root and splinters of bone that could remain in the well.A titanium screw is installed.Then the patient needs to wait for two to three months until the screw engrafts and the permanent crown is made.

If the front tooth is replaced, the use of temporary prostheses will avoid aesthetic unattractiveness.

If the root is not damaged, and the tooth itself has retained its integrity even half, then before the installation of the prosthesis( without the screw, only the crown), the grinding of the damaged tooth is performed.Installation of permanent, as in the previous case, is carried out only a couple of months after turning.Kul't, prepared for prosthetics, also looks ugly.

Temporary prosthesis functions

It is known that a permanent crown is made on individual patient's impressions - this is a long process, which is often carried out in a remote dental laboratory.Sometimes even sending shots and finished dentures takes about a month or more.

During this time, the jaw and gum may deform without proper load.This is due to the desire of the body to fill the emptiness formed after the removal of the tooth.Thus, a temporary denture for one tooth has the function of preserving the shape of the jaw and gums of the patient.

Temporary tooth after removal will preserve the aesthetic appeal of a smile, despite the unfinished process of treatment of the dentition.An absent or turned front tooth looks extremely ugly;Most modern people can not afford to walk a few months in this way.Temporary prosthesis can correct the situation for a fairly modest cost.

Temporary crown

The short crown also plays a protective function.After turning or removing the tooth and nerves, the gum becomes vulnerable to bacteria that enter the oral cavity together with food and drink.A prosthesis mounted on a stump or a titanium screw will protect the exposed portion of the gum from infections and viruses, inflammations, and diseases.

It is also worth mentioning that during wearing a temporary crown, the patient becomes accustomed to the prosthesis;Subsequently the patient himself, and his body quickly takes a permanent prosthesis.

Also, in the absence of the front tooth, the diction changes markedly;May appear lisp, cartilage, other speech defects.Temporary construction will help to avoid these problems.

Temporary prosthesis types

Temporary constructions are divided into removable and non-removable.To the removable carry the so-called "butterflies" - an immediate.They are made for one tooth.The fastening takes place due to nylon "stickers", which are glued to the neighboring ones.To better acquaint yourself with this design, look at the photos of temporary dentures of the median type.The patient can take it off at any time( for example, for cleaning).An immediate is made of plastic, the color of which is selected in accordance with the enamel of neighboring teeth from the row.The appearance completely imitates the natural.

It is very fragile, and therefore is used more often in the front, where there is no significant chewing load.

Immediate prosthesis

Non-removable are mainly represented by crowns( one) and bridges( two or more teeth in a row).They are great for wearing on a titanium screw, as the latter needs time for engraftment - lighter plastic temporary allows the screw to better assimilate the gum.A traditional permanent crown such as cermets or even acrylic can interfere with this process - an inflammatory process will begin, and the screw will be torn away by the patient's body.

Temporary prosthesis manufacturing

Almost all temporary prostheses are made of plastic.This provides :

Detachable Tooth kappa

The high speed manufacturing;
Ease of prosthesis( which has a positive effect on the process of engrafting the screw, as well as on the general condition of the gum);
Good aesthetic qualities.

When manufacturing a prosthesis for the front teeth, special attention is paid to the color and shape, and not the strength of the structure.For the choice of color, the doctor uses a comparison with neighboring teeth.So the dentist achieves the natural look of the crown.The shape is also selected in accordance with adjacent teeth, but compared with a permanent prosthesis or crown, the shape will not be so detailed.The quality of the workpiece will depend, first of all, on the specialist, as well as on the cost and material from which the prostheses will be made.

Contraindications

In some cases, the installation of temporary prosthesis for the front tooth is not possible for a number of reasons. main contraindications for setting changeable structure:

Individual features of the patient's body, which may interfere with engraftment titanium screw.If the patient replaces the tooth after removing the root, then during the first operation a screw is installed in the cleared hole.It takes some time for his engraftment in the gum - usually 2-3 months.Normally, even during engraftment, the screw can withstand the light load of the plastic prosthesis.

If the patient is prone to complications during the healing screw, the dentist may recommend not to install the temporary prosthesis, because it can provoke inflammation, abscess and other undesirable effects, after which the screw will have to be removed and may refuse to installProsthesis in the near future.
Unsatisfactory oral hygiene. If the patient does not follow the hygiene of the oral cavity, as well as if it has a predisposition to infections, viruses and has low immunity, the expert can choose not to install the temporary prosthesis.Despite the fact that the temporary crown is intended to protect vulnerable stripped gum against infection, in the absence of proper oral care, it can, on the contrary, trigger the development of an infectious disease, inflammation.

cost

price for installation of the plastic to the front tooth prosthesis varies depending on:

cost temporary dental prosthesis depends on the material quality and the skill of

Clinics professional qualifications;
Quality of the material;
Manufacturing laboratories.

The average cost of non-removable crowns varies from 2 to 5 thousand rubles.Removable, more comfortable and high-quality immediate prostheses cost from 10 to 15 thousand.The cost of installing a bridge structure is usually one and a half to two times higher than the implant per tooth.
