Dental Prosthesis

Klinika Dental Sta. Rosa Curaçao

A dental prothesis is a custom-made insert to fill missing teeth. If you are missing one or more teeth, a prothesis is a solution to complete your teeth.

When the entire upper and/or lower jaw is replaced, we call this a complete dental prothesis. When this insert is intended to supplement part of the teeth, we call this a partial prothesis. There is a plate partial prothesis or a frame prosthesis.

A plate partial prothesis is made of synthetic resin in the color of the gums. The teeth are attached to the synthetic resin. The plate rests on the palate and existing teeth. It is attached to the inside of your teeth (on the palate) against your current teeth. If your current teeth do not provide enough support, it will be attached to the adjacent molars with a metal hook.

A frame prosthesis is a ‘partial prothesis ‘ that supplements your own teeth. Teeth and/or molars are attached to this metal frame, with synthetic resin in the color of the gums. These partial prothesis partly rest on your remaining teeth. The prothesis is clamped to the existing teeth with small brackets.

Experts from Klinika Dental Sta. Rosa Curaçao will look at your personal situation and provide advice on which type of prothesis suits you best.
