Dental prosthetics Hungary

When teeth are severely damaged or even completely missing, they must be replaced. In addition to functional reasons, aesthetic considerations often play a role. In Hungary dental prostheses are offered in the same quality as in Austria and Germany, but due to lower overhead costs crowns, bridges and dentures are considerably cheaper.

Dental prosthetics Hungary: For all needs

Depending on the diagnosis and the problem, there are different treatment options and types of prostheses. At HD-Dental in Hungary the range of dental prosthetics extends from various types of crowns such as all-ceramic crowns or veneers, through bridges such as telescopic bridges and inlay bridges, to partial and full dentures.

A crown covers the entire visible portion of the tooth and thus restores its shape and functional value. Two appointments are planned for the fabrication of a crown, in more complicated cases three.

Dental prosthetics Hungary: At HD-Dental you can get all the standard types of crowns:

• Porcelain-fused crownsPorcelain-fused crowns represent the standard treatment because of their satisfactory durability and aesthetics. Their price-performance ratio is optimal for conventional restorations.
• All-ceramic crownsAll-ceramic crowns offer the nicest cosmetic result in the front tooth area. Their translucency comes closest to that of natural teeth. Even a specialist cannot distinguish them at first glance.
• Zirconia crownsZirconia crowns are a relatively new development in dentistry and not surprisingly so popular: they contain no metal and are characterized by their durability and excellent aesthetics.
• Procera crownsProcera crowns are manufactured using a new, revolutionary process. Because of their unique fit they are clearly superior to all other types of crowns. Another argument in their favor: this quality difference is only moderately reflected in the price.
• Veneers or facing shells form a special class of crowns. More on this under Aesthetic Dentistry.

Bridges are used as dental prostheses when entire teeth have been lost. The bridge units replace the missing teeth, while the abutment crowns secure the entire construction to the adjacent support teeth. Fixed bridges not only guarantee better wearing comfort, they are — with good oral hygiene — clearly preferable to removable prostheses due to their more favorable long-term prognosis. Fabrication time: 3 appointments within approx. 7–9 working days.

The most common types of bridges are also offered at HD-Dental in Hungary:

• Metal-ceramic bridgesMetal-ceramic bridges consist of a metal framework that provides the necessary strength and a porcelain veneering that restores the anatomical shape of the teeth.
• With the Zirconia ceramic bridges the conventional metal framework is replaced by this white, metal-free material, which is not only more attractive but also more durable.
• Procera bridgesProcera bridges can — thanks to the new Procera process — be made from any dental material, without limitation regarding their span. They thus offer for the first time the freedom to choose the optimal combination while providing the best quality.
• Inlay bridgesInlay bridges differ only in their method of attachment. Instead of abutment crowns they are held by inlays, which allows preservation of significantly more healthy tooth substance.
• Telescopic bridgesTelescopic bridges combine the advantages of bridges and removable prostheses.

If the strongest or too many teeth of a jaw are missing, the dental arch can be supplemented with a partial denture. To prevent rapid resorption of the jawbone, the remaining teeth must take on the load.

Partial dentures are complex types of restorations. Their fabrication requires 4–5 appointments and at least 10 working days. The numerous prostheses differ from each other in their method of anchorage.

Partial dentures at HD-Dental

• Clasp denturesClasp dentures can loosen the abutment teeth and cause resorption of the alveolar ridge. Their appearance is also not particularly appealing. Therefore they are only suitable as a temporary solution.
• Cast partial denturesCast partial dentures hold better, are less harmful, but are still not the ideal prosthesis.
• Combined prosthesesCombined prostheses always have a fixed bridge part and a removable denture part. Whether the connection is made by bars, attachments, ball heads, or snap buttons, the chewing pressure is — at least partially — transferred to the remaining teeth.
• Telescopic denturesare used when few teeth remain or the remaining teeth are no longer completely stable. They can be extended if further damage occurs to one of the patient's own teeth. Under less-than-perfect oral conditions this advantage is hard to overestimate. Read more about telescopic denture.
• Telescopic bridges is a similar construction; only the front, visible part (or the entire denture) is reduced for aesthetic reasons and designed like a bridge.

When teeth are missing, all conditions of the oral cavity must be put at the service of function. Alternatively, impressive results can be achieved with implants.

Dental prosthetics Hungary: HD-Dental offers you in Hungary two different forms of full dentures:

• Mucosa-supported denturesMucosa-supported dentures sit only on the jawbone or on the movable soft tissues. Their stability is therefore often not sufficient — especially in the lower jaw.
• Implant-supported denturesImplant-supported dentures are the solution in such cases. Even at an advanced age or with a severely resorbed alveolar ridge there is almost always enough bone for four implants, which then serve as the basis for a stable bar overdenture.
