Dental prosthesis

A dental prosthesis is an intraoral (inside the mouth) prosthesis used to reestablish (reproduce) intraoral imperfections, for example, missing teeth, missing parts of teeth, and missing delicate or hard structures of the jaw and palate. Prosthodontics is the dental specialty that focuses on dental prostheses. Such prostheses are utilized to rehabilitate mastication (chewing), improve aesthetics, and aid speech. A dental prosthesis may be held in place by connecting to teeth or dental implants, by suction, or by being held passively by surrounding muscles.

Like different kinds of prostheses, they can either be fixed permanently or temporarily. Fixed prosthodontics and removable dentures are made in numerous varieties. Permanently fixed dental prostheses use dental adhesive or screws, to attach to teeth or dental implants. Removal prostheses may use friction against parallel hard surfaces and undercuts of adjacent teeth or dental implants.
