Dental Bridges

Dental bridges are a reliable solution for replacing missing teeth, restoring your smile, and maintaining proper oral function. At Vijay Dental Miyapur, we specialize in creating high-quality bridges as part of our prosthodontics in Miyapur services. With a focus on custom dental restorations, we ensure each bridge is designed to fit comfortably and look natural.

Types of Brides

Traditional Bridges

These are the most common type, consisting of one or more artificial teeth held in place by crowns on adjacent natural teeth.

Cantilever Bridges

Used when only one adjacent tooth is available to support the bridge, ideal for specific situations.

Maryland Bonded Bridges

A conservative option where a framework is bonded to the back of neighboring teeth, requiring less alteration of natural teeth.

Implant-Supported Bridges

These use dental implants for support, offering a durable and permanent solution for multiple missing teeth.

Dental Bridge Procedure

Firstly, the abutment teeth are prepared, which involves recontouring these teeth by removing a portion of enamel to create space for a crown to be placed over it. Then, impressions of the teeth will be made to develop a model from which the bridge, crowns and pontic will be made by a dental lab. Dentists will make a temporary bridge to protect exposed teeth and gums while the bridge is being made. Then, temporary bridge will be removed and the new porcelain or metal bridge will be adjusted to achieve a proper fit.

Benefits of Dental Bridges

Restores Functionality: Enables proper chewing and speaking, improving overall oral function.
Aesthetic Enhancement: Fills gaps in your smile with natural-looking restorations.
Prevents Teeth Shifting: Keeps adjacent teeth in place, avoiding misalignment.
Long-Lasting Results: With proper care, dental bridges can last for years.

Dentures

Dentures are an excellent solution for individuals who have lost multiple or all of their teeth. At Vijay Dental Miyapur, we offer various types of dentures as part of our prosthodontics in Miyapur services. With our expertise in custom dental restorations, we create dentures that are comfortable, functional, and aesthetically pleasing, ensuring that you regain both confidence and comfort in your smile.

Complete Dentures

Complete dentures are designed for individuals who have lost all of their teeth in a specific arch (upper or lower). They are made to fit securely over the gums, providing a full set of teeth that improve speech and chewing functionality.

Partial Dentures

Partial dentures are ideal for patients who have lost only a few teeth. These dentures fill the gaps left by missing teeth and are supported by the remaining natural teeth. They help prevent shifting and maintain the alignment of the teeth.

Implant-Supported Dentures

For added stability and comfort, implant-supported dentures are anchored to dental implants rather than just resting on the gums. This type of denture offers a more secure fit and helps preserve jawbone health.

Flexible Dentures

These dentures are made from a flexible material, offering increased comfort and a more natural fit. They are especially useful for those with sensitive gums or those who prefer a lightweight option.

Care

You need to brush your dentures daily to remove food particles and plaque. Brushing can also help prevent teeth from staining. Rinse your dentures prior to brushing to remove any food or debris.
Try to use a soft bristle toothbrush and a non-abrasive cleanser to brush all the surfaces of the dentures so they don’t get scratched. Clean your mouth properly-including gums, cheeks, tongue and roof of your mouth to remove any plaque. This can reduce the risk of oral irritation and bad breath.

Benefits of Dentures

Restores Function: Dentures improve your ability to chew and speak, restoring the functionality of your mouth.
Aesthetic Appeal: Custom dentures are designed to mimic the appearance of natural teeth, enhancing your smile.
Prevents Jawbone Shrinkage: Dentures help support the structure of your face, preventing the jawbone from shrinking due to tooth loss.
Improved Confidence: With a well-fitting set of dentures, you can smile, speak, and eat with confidence again.

Obturators

An obturator is a custom-made dental appliance designed to close an opening in the oral or nasal cavity, typically following the loss of part or all of the palate due to injury, surgery, or congenital conditions. At Vijay Dental Miyapur, we offer specialized prosthodontics in Miyapur, creating custom dental restorations like obturators that help restore function and appearance for patients with unique needs.

Types of Obturators

1. Palatal Obturator:

A palatal obturator is designed to cover defects in the roof of the mouth (palate) caused by surgery, injury, or congenital conditions such as cleft palate. It helps seal the oral and nasal cavities, improving speech, swallowing, and preventing food or liquid from entering the nasal cavity.

2. Partial Obturator:

A partial obturator is used when a smaller portion of the palate or oral cavity is missing. This type is often designed for individuals who have lost part of the palate or a portion of the teeth, helping restore normal oral function and appearance while ensuring comfort.

3. Full Obturator:

A full obturator covers the entire palate or oral defect and is typically used when a larger portion of the mouth has been lost. It helps fully restore normal speech, eating, and breathing functions.

4. Immediate Obturator:

An immediate obturator is used right after surgery, often for patients who undergo maxillofacial surgery. It is designed to cover the surgical site and assist in immediate healing, protecting the area from infection and improving comfort.

Benefits of Obturators

Restores Function: Obturators help improve essential functions such as speech, chewing, and swallowing, making everyday activities more comfortable for individuals with oral or palatal defects.
Improves Aesthetic Appearance: With a custom dental restoration to match the natural palate, obturators can restore a natural appearance, boosting confidence and helping patients feel more comfortable in social situations.
Prevents Further Health Complications: By covering oral defects, obturators protect the surgical site or open cavity, preventing food and bacteria from entering and promoting better oral hygiene.
Comfortable and Customizable: Obturators are designed to fit each patient’s unique oral anatomy, providing a comfortable and secure fit for easier speech and eating.

Obturator Functions

The following are a few functions of the Obturator:

  • An obturator can be used to keep the wound clean and it can enhance the healing of traumatic or post surgical defects
  • It can also help to reshape or reconstruct the defect
  • In some scenarios, it makes speech possible
  • It can also be used to correct lip and cheek position
  • In the case of deglutition and mastication impairs, it can be used to improve functions
  • It decreases the flow of exudates in the mouth

Objectives Of Obturator

  • It should be comfortable
  • Should be able to restore speech, deglutition and mastication
  • Should be acceptable cosmetically
  • To achieve all these objectives, the Obturator should have enough support, retention and stability

Objectives Of Obturator

Obturators are classified into three types: surgical, Interim, and definitive. The placement of a surgical obturator involves a surgical process, and this obturator is designed to replace the missing structural components, including the plates and associative dentoalveolar structures of the maxillary arch.

The Interim Obturator acts as an alternative to the Surgical Obturator after the initial healing period in the postoperative period is completed. During this phase, multiple adjustments are made to the prosthesis. Teeth are frequently added to enhance the mouth’s functionality and support nutritional intake.

The definitive obturator involves replacing functional teeth to maximize oral functioning capacity. This phase can develop the appearance and aesthetic structure.

Eye Prosthesis (Ocular Prothesis)

An eye prosthesis, also known as an ocular prosthesis, is a custom-made artificial eye designed to replace a missing or damaged eye due to injury, illness, or congenital conditions. At Vijay Dental Miyapur, we offer advanced prosthodontics in Miyapur services, creating custom dental restorations such as ocular prostheses to help patients regain both appearance and comfort. Our prosthetic eyes are designed to not only look natural but also restore confidence and enhance the overall quality of life.

Types of Eye Prosthesis

1. Custom Ocular Prosthesis:

A custom ocular prosthesis is individually crafted to match the unique shape, size, and color of the patient’s natural eye. It is made from high-quality materials such as acrylic or glass and is designed to fit securely in the eye socket, providing a realistic appearance.

2. Stock Ocular Prosthesis:

A stock ocular prosthesis is a pre-made prosthetic eye available in standard sizes. It can be a temporary solution for patients who need immediate eye replacement before a custom prosthesis is made. While it is more affordable, the fit and appearance are not as personalized as custom prostheses.

3. Implant-Supported Ocular Prosthesis:

An implant-supported ocular prosthesis is a permanent solution for patients who have undergone eye removal (enucleation). In this case, a small titanium implant is placed in the eye socket, which integrates with the bone and provides support for a prosthetic eye. This type of prosthesis offers enhanced stability, comfort, and a more natural appearance.

4. Scleral Shell Prosthesis:

A scleral shell prosthesis is designed for patients who still have the existing eye but may have a damaged or malformed eye. It fits over the existing eye and covers the damaged tissue, providing a natural appearance without the need for enucleation.

Benefits of Eye Prosthesis

Restores Aesthetic Appearance: A custom ocular prosthesis enhances facial symmetry, helping to restore the natural appearance of the face, especially when an eye has been lost due to trauma or illness.

Boosts Confidence and Self-Esteem: Replacing a missing eye can significantly improve the patient’s self-image and help them regain confidence in social interactions.

Improved Comfort: With a well-fitting ocular prosthesis, patients can experience greater comfort in daily activities, including eating, speaking, and engaging in physical activities.

Enhanced Functionality: Implant-supported and custom ocular prostheses can help maintain the functionality of the eye socket, preventing further complications and maintaining the overall health of the surrounding tissues.

Durability: Eye prostheses are designed to be durable, long-lasting, and easy to maintain with proper care, ensuring that patients can continue to enjoy a natural look for years.

Surgery Types

The surgery is categorized into two types. Depending on the type of surgery, the type of prosthetic eye will vary:

Evisceration

In this method, the jelly-like inside of the eye is suctioned out. This is performed by making an incision in the front of the eye. However, the procedure preserves tissues in the outer eye, and eye socket.

Ocular Prothesis

In this method, the eye is cut away and removed from the eye socket. Depending on the type of eye condition and degree of eye damage, your doctor will decide on the type of method.

Who Should Go For Prosthetic Eye?

Prosthetic eye can enhance the appearance of the affected eye socket. Most people prefer wearing an eye patch or bandage. In people who lost the entire eye, an ocular implant and prosthesis prevent the tissues in the eye socket from growing to fill the empty space.
