Fixed dental prostheses

They function like natural teeth and provide a completely natural appearance

A fixed dental prothesis is a custom-made artificial restoration composed of one or several teeth, designed to replace missing or worn teeth. The aim of this treatment is to improve chewing function, speech and the aesthetic appearance of the patient’s smile.

There are two main types of fixed prostheses: metal-ceramic and all-ceramic. Fixed prostheses do not need to be removed by the patient during their lifespan, functioning like natural teeth and providing a completely natural appearance in both colour and shape.

Procedure

  • A detailed assessment of the affected tooth or teeth is performed, including X-rays, photographs, impressions, and selection of colour and shape.
  • In the clinic, the teeth are prepared, impressions are taken and provisional crowns or bridges are placed.
  • The impressions are sent to the dental laboratory for digital scanning and design using CAD-CAM technology, which ensures precision and a perfect fit.
  • During the process, clinical tests are carried out to verify the fit, colour, shape, occlusion and contact points.
  • Once all tests are confirmed, the final prosthesis is permanently cemented in the patient’s mouth

Benefits of fixed dental prostheses

  • Provide comfort, stability and support, functioning like natural teeth.
  • Significantly improve dental aesthetics and boost the patient’s confidence when speaking, eating and smiling.
  • Offer an excellent alternative for patients who cannot undergo implant treatment.

Frequently asked questions about fixed dental prostheses

A fixed dental prosthesis is a permanent restoration designed to replace one or more missing or damaged teeth.
It is custom-made in a dental laboratory and permanently cemented onto natural teeth or dental implants.
Unlike removable prostheses, it cannot be taken out, offering a sensation identical to that of natural teeth.
At Clínica Dental Art, we use high-aesthetic materials — such as ceramics and zirconia — to achieve a precise, durable and completely natural result.
The cost depends on the number of teeth to be replaced, the material (composite, metal-ceramic, zirconia or other ceramics), and the complexity of the case.
At Clínica Dental Art, we provide personalised quotes after a full clinical evaluation, always maintaining total transparency.
We also offer flexible financing options, making it easier to restore your smile without compromising on quality or aesthetics.
Although fixed prostheses are not removable, maintaining excellent daily oral hygiene is essential.
Teeth should be brushed three times a day with a medium-bristle toothbrush and special dental floss for bridges or interdental brushes to clean the spaces between the prosthesis and the gum. Water flossers can also be used for optimal cleaning.
Professional check-ups and cleanings are recommended at least once or twice a year.
Good hygiene ensures the longevity of the prosthesis and the health of the surrounding gums.
No. The placement of fixed prostheses is a safe, painless procedure, performed under local anaesthesia if necessary.
After placement, mild sensitivity or pressure may be felt for a few days, but it quickly disappears.
