Dental Prosthetics are:

• the replacement of any missing tooth, or teeth, in the mouth by means of an artifical appliance or structure.
• the replacement or restoration of a broken or damaged tooth by means of an artificial structure.
• the cosmetic improvement to teeth by means of an artificial construction.

In essence, prosthetics can be classified as:

FIXED PROSTHESIS:

• Crowns
• Bridges
• Inlays and Onlays
• Implants

REMOVABLE PROSTHESIS:

• Dentures

Your Dental Surgeon will carry out a full and comprehensive examination of your mouth which will probably include:

• Full tooth charting.
• Periodontal Health.
• Bone loss and integrity.
• Cavity and Decay check.
• Intra- and extra-oral radiographs.
• Study models of your teeth.
• Possible wax mock up of the proposed restorations.

At the conclusion of all discussions the Dental Surgeon will formulate a treatment plan in accordance with your wishes and his recomendations and provide you with a cost estimate for the proposed treatment plan.
