Prosthetic (Prosthetic) DentistryAccording to the number and location of missing teeth in the mouth, it is one of the important and big branches of dentistry that aims to restore oral integrity, not only aesthetics but also chewing functions, speaking properly and eliminating psychological problems caused by edentulousness.
Prosthetic DentistryIt is mostly applied to patients who are late for treatment. Thus, the lost tooth or teeth can be regained with different types of prosthesis. Prosthetic treatment methods make the person feel better in terms of function and aesthetics. While the chewing and speaking function is restored to the person, it is ensured that the person feels good in terms of comfort and aesthetics.
Basically, different types of prosthesis are applied to replace the lost tooth with prosthetic dental treatments. Prosthesis treatments are applied by prosthodontist physicians, who are defined as prosthodontists. These dentists, also called prosthodontists, deal with fixed and removable prosthesis applications in the mouth, as well as supporting the tooth with porcelain crowns after root canal treatment.
Today, the science of prosthetic dentistry, which is also defined as aesthetic dentistry, sometimes works with other dentistry specialties such as orthodontics in a multidisciplinary approach. Prosthodontists, or prosthodontists, basically deal with replacing the damaged or lost tooth with prosthesis applications. At this point, it is important that the prosthesis to be preferred is determined according to the needs of the patient and that the prosthesis is the same size and color as the natural teeth. Prosthetic dental treatments are often also known as aesthetic dental treatment, due to the use of prosthetic teeth instead of existing tissue. At this point, although the aesthetic appearance is very important, the main thing in the treatment of prosthetic teeth is to regain the chewing and speaking skills of the person.

Depending on the wrong applications made for aesthetics, undesirable results such as the absence of some sounds during the person's speech or the biting of the cheeks may occur. Therefore, while the lost tooth is regained with prosthesis applications, aesthetic concerns, especially functionality, are eliminated.
In cases where all teeth are lost, total dentures are applied by prosthetic dentists.
