Clip-on prosthetics

A bar denture is a removable arch-shaped denture that is fixed to the remaining teeth and provides sufficient chewing and aesthetic function.

What is often referred to in films and popular culture as a “removable jaw” is often exactly what a brace denture is – removable and comfortable.

Dental clinic “Dent-House” is engaged in installation of bougels in Odessa.

Indications and contraindications for the fitting of braces

Clip-on dentures are used when permanent dentures are not possible due to the condition of the teeth or contraindications.

In addition, removable braces can be placed if several teeth in the row are severely damaged, extracted or require extraction.

Among other readings:

• rapid erosion of enamel;
• paradontosis;
• the need to correct the bite of missing teeth.

There are few contraindications to the installation of braces – too deep bite, chronic diseases, as well as inflammatory processes in the oral cavity.

Advantages and disadvantages of such prosthetics

Dentures are quite comfortable. They do not affect taste and diction, do not cause severe discomfort, and distribute the load evenly across the tooth row. In addition, a brace is an excellent budget alternative to dental implants – especially when several teeth need to be replaced at once.

Perhaps the only disadvantage of this design is that it is too firmly fixed to the supporting teeth, which gradually erodes the enamel on them.

Varieties of braces in Odessa

There are four different types of clip-on dentures with different fixation methods.

Clamp-supported dentures provide an even load on the teeth and gums by means of adjustable retainers – clasps. These dentures are most often placed on chewing teeth, as otherwise the metal retention elements would be visible in a wide smile.

Attachment brackets use a small locking system where one part of the lock is embedded in the support tooth and the other part is placed directly on the arch of the denture. This system is almost completely invisible.

A bracket with telescopic crowns is a rather complex design that requires additional tooth grinding. After that, metal bases with locks are attached and realistic crowns are fixed on the outside – this makes the smile look natural, without any hint of a denture.

Finally, for patients who are allergic to various metals, a quadrottic denture – a lightweight polymer arch – is the ideal solution. This denture does not require grinding of the teeth, as it has a secure retention system.

How is the fitting of braces?

It all starts with a dental appointment where the dentist examines your mouth, sanitises it, and takes an impression to create a custom denture.

On the basis of this impression, the prosthetic framework is cast in the laboratory and the retainers are fitted. The first fitting is supervised by the doctor, who will give additional advice on the use and care of the prosthesis.
