While primary prophylactic measures start in healthy individuals with the aim of preventing disease from the outset, primary prophylaxis goes one step further by providing education during pregnancy and taking therapeutic measures in the expectant mother, thus already protecting the health of the unborn child. During pregnancy, the course is set not only for the … Primary Primary Prophylaxis
Protecting teeth from caries (tooth decay) and periodontitis (inflammation of the periodontium) well into old age is a feasible goal if prophylactic (preventive) measures such as consistent home dental care and regular professional dental cleaning (PZR) at the dentist go hand in hand. Home oral hygiene makes areas such as the interdental spaces (spaces between … Professional Dental Cleaning: Costs, Procedure
It is impossible to imagine modern dentistry without prophylaxis. It includes all measures that contribute to the prevention and early detection of factors that are detrimental to oral and dental health. Rehabilitation and aftercare help to halt diseases and maintain therapeutic successes. It is important here that, as far as possible, the population as a … Prophylaxis in Dentistry for Oral and Dental Health
Dentures must be cared for daily, just like your own teeth, to prevent adverse effects on oral health caused by pathogens and to maintain the aesthetics and function of the denture for a long time. An esthetic-looking, clean prosthesis, like beautiful own teeth, contributes decisively to the quality of life of its wearer. If denture … Denture Hygiene
In addition to a tooth-healthy diet and adequate oral hygiene, fluorides are the mainstay of caries prophylaxis (prevention of tooth decay). Fluoride is a natural trace element. It occurs worldwide in the soil and in all water, including drinking water. A particularly high fluoride content is found in seawater and volcanic soils. In the human … Caries Prophylaxis with Fluorides
Caries protection through the use of fluorides, including amine fluorides, is of fundamental importance in individual dental prophylaxis. Fluorides are salts of hydrofluoric acid (HF) and are widely distributed in nature. They are found in soil and in all water, with particularly high concentrations in seas and volcanic soils. Fluoride is naturally present in tooth … Caries Protection Through Amine Fluoride
A model cast denture is a removable partial denture (partial denture, partial prosthesis), the stabilizing base of which is manufactured from a cobalt-chromium-molybdenum alloy using the one-piece casting process. In the simple case, a model cast denture (synonyms: one-piece cast denture, cast-in denture, unitor denture) is anchored to the remaining teeth by means of cast … Model Casting Prosthesis
Denture relining – called relining for short – improves the fit, support and function of an existing denture by readjusting it to changed conditions of the surrounding soft tissues and the supporting jawbone. The oral mucosa and the jawbone it covers are subjected to constant pressure by a denture. A denture must therefore distribute this … Denture Relining
Dental prosthesis (synonym: prosthetics) has, according to the literal sense, the task to replace partially lost tooth substance or teeth. In fact, prosthetic work can be manufactured today in a wide range of variations and with the highest precision. Despite the technical possibilities, patients should nevertheless be aware that even the highest-quality prosthetics are replacements … Dentures to Replace Missing Teeth
An immediate denture (synonym: immediate prosthesis) is a definitive (final) removable partial or full denture to replace missing teeth. Immediately inserted after a surgical procedure, it requires adaptation to the altered jaw structure after wound healing. During the wound healing phase after tooth extraction (tooth removal), not only the soft tissues covering the jawbone regenerate. … Immediate Prosthesis
A post abutment is used to rebuild root canal-treated teeth whose natural crown has been severely destroyed, so that they can subsequently be restored with a crown and thus preserved. If the natural crown of a tooth is largely destroyed, there is sometimes not enough remaining tooth substance to attach an artificial crown to it. … Pin Buildups
A superstructure is a dental prosthesis attached to an implant. This can be a crown, a bridge or even a denture. The implant itself is surgically placed (implanted) in edentulous areas of the jaw and assumes the function of an artificial tooth root, which serves to attach the superstructure. An implant that heals without complications … Supraconstruction on Implants
