Prosthodontics

სტომატოლოგიური ორთოპედია

Creating a beautiful smile often involves improving the shape and color of the teeth. If needed, several prosthodontic options are available to restore both aesthetics and function:

Available Solutions:

  • Zirconia-Porcelain Crowns
  • Metal-Ceramic Crowns
  • Removable Dentures

Restoring missing teeth is not only important for appearance, but also for proper chewing, speech, and jaw alignment. This is the key goal of orthopaedic (prosthetic) dentistry.

In cases of partial or complete tooth loss, we offer:

  • Partial or full dentures
  • Dental bridges
  • Single crowns
    All available in various materials to suit your needs.

At Eskulapi, you can access the full range of prosthodontic services. During your consultation, the doctor will work with you to choose the most suitable, effective, and affordable treatment option tailored to your individual needs.

Please schedule a consultation to arrange your visit with the doctor.

Zirconia-Porcelain Crowns

Zirconia crowns are made from zirconium dioxide, a biocompatible, natural-looking material that combines the strength of metal with the aesthetics of ceramic. Naturally white and slightly translucent, zirconia closely mimics the appearance of real teeth—making it nearly indistinguishable in the mouth.

These crowns offer a high level of durability, natural transparency, and a lifelike appearance.

Zirconia-ceramic crowns can be used to restore:

  • Single missing or damaged teeth
  • Multiple teeth
  • They can be placed on natural teeth or dental implants

This makes zirconia an ideal solution for patients seeking both functionality and a beautiful, natural smile.

Metal-Ceramic Crowns

Metal-ceramic crowns are a reliable solution for restoring damaged or missing teeth. These crowns have a strong metal base, which ensures durability, and are coated with ceramic (porcelain) for a natural, tooth-like appearance.

They are suitable for:

  • Single tooth restorations
  • Dental bridges (multiple connected crowns)
  • Placement on natural teeth or implants

This combination of strength and aesthetics makes metal-ceramic crowns a popular and cost-effective option for long-term dental restoration.

Removable Prostheses

Removable prostheses are used in cases of partial or complete tooth loss. They consist of:

  • A base (support structure)
  • Artificial teeth
  • Retention elements (for secure fit)

The base can be made from materials with varying levels of flexibility, resulting in two main types:

Acrylic (Plastic) Prosthesis
Made from rigid, monomerized material, acrylic dentures are durable and commonly used. They are a cost-effective solution for both full and partial tooth replacement.

Thermoplastic (Bigel) Prosthesis
This type is made from flexible thermoplastic material, covering only part of the palate. It is lightweight, non-irritating to the gums, and offers better comfort and retention.

Implant-Supported Removable Dentures (Conditionally Removable)

In cases of complete tooth loss, a more advanced solution involves dentures supported by 4 to 6 dental implants. These are locked into place using a special system, offering strong and stable support.

Key benefits:

  • Firm attachment using a metal bar and internal locks
  • No movement while eating or speaking
  • Can be removed for cleaning, simplifying oral hygiene
  • More comfortable and offers superior chewing efficiency compared to traditional dentures
