Complete range of fixed and removable prosthetic treatments designed to restore function, aesthetics, and confidence after tooth loss.
About the treatment
Dental prosthetics is the branch of dentistry dedicated to replacing missing teeth and restoring oral function through artificial substitutes. Whether you have lost a single tooth, several teeth, or an entire arch, modern prosthetic dentistry offers solutions that can closely replicate the appearance and function of natural teeth. Prosthetic options fall into three main categories. Fixed prosthetics include crowns, bridges, and implant-supported restorations that are permanently cemented or screwed in place. Removable prosthetics include partial dentures (replacing some teeth) and complete dentures (replacing all teeth in an arch). Implant-supported prosthetics combine the stability of dental implants with either fixed or removable restorations, offering the highest level of comfort and function. V BestDent, we use advanced materials and digital technologies to create prosthetics that look and feel remarkably natural. CAD/CAM design, intraoral scanning, and precision milling ensure each restoration fits perfectly. Materials range from high-strength zirconia and pressed ceramics for fixed restorations to flexible nylon and metal-framework acrylics for removable options. Every prosthetic is fabricated in our partnered dental laboratory by experienced technicians who understand both the science and artistry of tooth replacement. The consequences of leaving missing teeth untreated extend far beyond aesthetics. Adjacent teeth shift into gaps, opposing teeth over-erupt, bite alignment deteriorates, and jawbone resorption accelerates. These changes can lead to TMJ disorders, difficulty eating, speech problems, and further tooth loss. Timely prosthetic treatment prevents this cascade of complications. For mezinárodní pacienti considering dental treatment v Istanbulu, prosthetics represent exceptional value. You receive the same premium materials and techniques used across Europe, with the added benefit of BestDent's comprehensive approach that considers your long-term oral health, not just the immediate replacement.

Treatment Process
Komplexní Oral vyšetření
Treatment begins with a thorough clinical examination including digital X-rays, panoramic radiographs, and intraoral scanning. Your dentist evaluates the condition of remaining teeth, gum health, bone density, and bite alignment. This assessment determines which prosthetic option will deliver the best outcome for your specific situation.
Léčba Plánování and Options Discussion
Based on your assessment, your prosthodontist presents all viable options, explaining the advantages, limitations, and expected outcomes of each approach. Whether fixed, removable, or implant-supported, you make an informed decision with full understanding of what each choice involves. Digital previews may be used to visualise the planned result.
Preparatory Procedures
Depending on your treatment plan, preparatory steps may include tooth extractions, gum treatment, bone assessment, or preparation of abutment teeth for bridges. Any infections or gum disease are addressed before prosthetic work begins to ensure the best foundation for your new teeth.
Precision Impressions and Bite Registration
Digital intraoral scans or precision impressions capture the exact contours of your mouth, remaining teeth, and gum tissue. Bite registration records how your upper and lower jaws meet, ensuring your prosthetic will function harmoniously with your natural bite. These records guide every aspect of fabrication.
Try-In and Aesthetic Evaluation
A trial version of your prosthetic is created for you to evaluate before final fabrication. This try-in appointment allows assessment of fit, comfort, bite alignment, tooth colour, and overall aesthetics. Adjustments are made based on your feedback to ensure complete satisfaction with the final result.
Laboratoř Výroba
Your approved design is sent to the dental laboratory where skilled technicians fabricate the final prosthetic using premium materials. Fixed prosthetics are milled from zirconia or pressed ceramic blocks. Removable prosthetics are crafted from medical-grade acrylic, flexible nylon, or metal-reinforced frameworks. Quality control checks verify accuracy at every stage.
Delivery, Fitting, and Fine Adjustment
The completed prosthetic is fitted in your mouth with meticulous attention to comfort, function, and aesthetics. Bite alignment is verified and fine-tuned. For fixed prosthetics, permanent cementation or screw-retention is performed. For removable options, retention and stability are optimised. You receive comprehensive care instructions.
Kontrola and Ongoing Care
BestDent schedules follow-up appointments to monitor adaptation, address any initial discomfort, and make fine adjustments. Long-term maintenance includes regular check-ups, professional cleaning, and periodic relining or adjustment of removable prosthetics. International patients receive remote support and guidance for follow-up care with their local dentist.
Frequently Asked Questions
What types of dental prosthetics are available?
The three main categories are fixed prosthetics (crowns, bridges, implant-supported teeth), removable prosthetics (partial and complete dentures), and implant-supported prosthetics (combining implant stability with fixed or removable restorations). Each type has specific advantages depending on the number of missing teeth, bone condition, and patient preferences.
How do I know which prosthetic is right for me?
The best option depends on several factors: how many teeth are missing, the condition of remaining teeth and bone, your overall health, lifestyle, and personal preferences. During your comprehensive assessment v BestDent, your prosthodontist will explain all options and help you make an informed decision that balances function, aesthetics, and long-term value.
How long does prosthetic treatment take?
Simple prosthetics like single crowns can be completed in 1-2 weeks. Partial or complete dentures typically take 2-3 weeks. Complex full-mouth rehabilitations involving implants may span several months. For mezinárodní pacienti, BestDent designs treatment timelines that minimise the number of trips to Istanbul.
Are modern dentures comfortable?
Yes, modern dentures are significantly more comfortable than those from previous decades. Advances in materials like flexible nylon for partial dentures and precision-fit acrylic for complete dentures have dramatically improved comfort. Digital fabrication ensures a more accurate fit, and implant-retained options eliminate the looseness that plagued traditional dentures.
How long do dental prosthetics last?
Longevity varies by type: porcelain crowns and bridges typically last 15-20 years, removable dentures 5-10 years, and implant-supported prosthetics 15-25 years or more. Regular dental visits, good oral hygiene, and avoiding excessive forces (like grinding) are the main factors in maximising lifespan.
Can I eat normally with dental prosthetics?
Fixed prosthetics like crowns, bridges, and implant-supported restorations allow essentially unrestricted eating. Removable dentures restore most chewing function, though very hard or sticky foods may need to be avoided. Implant-supported dentures offer a middle ground, providing much better chewing force than conventional removable options.
What happens if I don't replace missing teeth?
Untreated gaps lead to a chain reaction of dental problems: adjacent teeth drift into the space, opposing teeth over-erupt, bite alignment deteriorates, and jawbone shrinks. Over time, this causes further tooth loss, TMJ pain, difficulty eating, and facial ageing. The longer treatment is delayed, the more complex and costly restoration becomes.
How do I care for my dental prosthetics?
Fixed prosthetics are cared for like natural teeth: brushing twice daily and flossing regularly. Removable dentures should be cleaned with a denture brush and solution daily, and removed at night to rest the gums. All prosthetic patients should attend professional check-ups every six months for optimal long-term results.
Is prosthetic treatment painful?
Prosthetic procedures are performed under local anaesthesia, ensuring comfort throughout treatment. Tooth preparation and impression-taking are painless. Some initial adjustment discomfort is normal with new prosthetics, particularly removable dentures, but this typically resolves within 1-2 weeks as your mouth adapts.
Can old prosthetics be replaced or upgraded?
Absolutely. Replacing outdated prosthetics is one of the most common treatments we perform. Old metal-based crowns can be upgraded to all-ceramic. Worn dentures can be replaced with better-fitting modern versions or upgraded to implant-supported solutions. BestDent evaluates your current prosthetics and recommends the most beneficial upgrade path.
