Fixed and removable prostheses

Dental prostheses

When you lose one or more teeth is important to replace it as soon as possible because the problems arising may be even greater than the fact of losing a piece.

With dental prosthesis treatments, we can replace one or more missing teeth, either by a permanent method (crown, bridge, implant) or complete dentures whether fixed, hybrid or removable. Dentures help restore the ability of proper chewing, which is important for overall health. In addition, they limit the movement of other teeth, phonetic restoring the phonetic function and aesthetics.

  • Dental implants
  • Dental crowns
  • Dental veneers
