Consultation on dental prosthetics
Prosthetics are indicated for the loss of one, several, or all teeth. Modern dental clinics offer a wide range of designs that differ not only in indications, but also in price, quality and appearance. Of course, every patient expects to receive the most aesthetic, high-quality and durable work. It is for the purpose of the highest quality dental prosthetics that each patient should sign up for a free consultation, where the doctor, after performing an initial examination, will give comprehensive information about all the ranges of work to be done and answer all questions. In addition, consultation with related specialists, such as a periodontist, surgeon, therapist, orthodontist, allows you to draw up a treatment plan as accurately as possible, taking into account all the features of each clinical case, determine the preparation of the oral cavity for prosthetics and choose the most suitable design.
Consultations with related specialists before dental prosthetics
After an initial examination and drawing up a preliminary treatment plan, the orthopedic dentist in most cases will invite doctors from other specialized areas to conduct an expanded diagnosis. Each of them, examining the patient, taking into account the characteristics of their specialty, indicates the possible presence of hidden problems or recommends the most optimal solution to hidden ones, which allows a comprehensive assessment of the situation. This makes it possible to prevent the development of complications in the future and, thereby, extend the service life of the prosthesis. Also, this approach speaks of high professionalism and attentive attitude to each specific case.
Orthopedic dentistry techniques
An orthopedic dentist deals with microprosthetics, removable, fixed and conditionally removable methods of tooth restoration.
Microprosthetics involves the following procedure: when a tooth is destroyed and requires giving it a presentable appearance, an orthopedic dentist uses inlays and plates to restore part of the tooth. This type of prosthetics is most necessary for the front teeth. Today, prosthetic veneers are especially popular. Their service life is about 10 years.
Permanent prosthetics are larger and more durable than microprosthetics. An orthopedic doctor uses crowns and bridges to restore the chewing functions of the dentition. Orthopedic practice shows that in the case of the loss of one tooth, a crown will be an excellent solution, but if several adjacent teeth are missing, then it is much more effective to install bridges.
Removable prosthetics may not only be needed by older people. It happens that even teenagers need it. An orthopedic dentist installs a prosthesis in place of a lost tooth and thus prevents the curvature of healthy teeth.
A specialist can install complete or partial removable dentures, it all depends on the individual characteristics of the patient’s teeth.
Consultation with an otopedist-dentist
This is the main specialist in the process of manufacturing and installing prosthetic structures . During the consultation, the doctor determines the need and type of prosthesis, the material for its manufacture, having carried out an initial examination and interview, taking an anamnesis, etc. He also recommends examinations by dentists of other specialties, if necessary. Sometimes the final decision is made by a council of doctors. The price of the selected work and the timing of its completion are discussed with the patient. The doctor answers all the patient’s questions and gives recommendations on choosing the most suitable design.
Consultation with a periodontist
A periodontist is a specialist who treats diseases of the gums and oral mucosa. During the consultation before dental prosthetics, the doctor determines hygienic and periodontal indices, which indicate the cleanliness of the oral cavity, and determine the presence of periodontal inflammatory processes. Also carries out professional hygienic cleaning to remove soft and hard sub- and supragingival plaque. In addition, complex treatment of periodontitis may be prescribed if this problem exists. This will extend the life of both the prosthesis and its natural supports.

. The TOP rating of the best dentists in Moscow and Russia helps people from different parts of the country choose dentistry where they are guaranteed to receive the highest quality medical care.
Consultation with an orthodontist
An orthodontist deals with the correction of the bite as a whole and the incorrect position of individual teeth. Sometimes the intervention of this specialist is necessary to create space for the installation of a future structure, because orthodontic appliances are the most gentle method, although they take some time. They do not require preparation or root canal treatment. And the system itself can be removed with special tools without harming the enamel. The fact is that their need arises when there is a long-term absence of replacement of formed defects. In this case, the adjacent or antagonist teeth begin to move to close this gap. As a result, there is not enough space for the structure and the question is how to create the necessary space. The solution may be an orthodontic device.
Consultation with a dental surgeon
Dental implantation
The specialization of the dental surgeon speaks for itself. Consultation with this specialist is essential before prosthetics. After an initial examination, the doctor determines the teeth to be removed , the presence of exostoses or mucous strands in the case of complete edentia and the manufacture of a removable structure. The surgeon will also explain issues of implantation , bone grafting and sinus lifting. Sometimes it is implantation that allows a complete removable denture to be firmly and reliably fixed in the oral cavity. The patient receives answers to all questions regarding the course of the operation, pain relief, the postoperative period, and the cost of treatment.

Consultation with a dentist
An examination and recommendations by a dentist-therapist before dental prosthetics allows us to identify carious cavities, complications caused by the carious process such as pulpitis and periodontitis, as well as determine the most effective treatment for them. The therapist also prepares supports for bridge structures or crowns, if necessary. This refers to the treatment and filling of root canals.

How to choose a clinic for dental prosthetics
- availability of an appropriate license to conduct medical activities,
- the presence of orthopedic doctors, implantologists, as well as dental therapists who can carry out all the necessary treatment - that is, the services must be varied so that the patient can receive them all in one place,
- professional doctors who have higher specialized education and also regularly undergo advanced training, including participating in seminars and forums as visitors or (which is better) lecturers,
- a clinic for dental prosthetics must be equipped to the highest standard: the patient must have the opportunity to undergo an x-ray and an orthopantomogram. Having a CT scanner will also be an additional advantage. Naturally, dentistry should have everything for dental treatment and surgical operations,
- complete sterility: at the entrance you should be offered replacement slippers or shoe covers, the office should be clean, equipment for sterilizing instruments must be installed. The doctor must work in a mask and disposable gloves, a special work gown or a disposable cape,
- comfortable and cozy atmosphere - the clinic should be pleasant to be in, administrators and doctors should be kind and be sure to answer all your questions,
- Having your own dental laboratory is a desirable, but not mandatory requirement. If it is located at the clinic, as a rule, the production and correction of prostheses takes place much faster, and it is often possible to save on treatment. But this is not an indicator - many large clinics work with third-party laboratories that specialize specifically in the manufacture of dentures - dental technicians in this case have much more experience,
- positive reviews: before going to the clinic, you should read the opinions of real patients (on the dentist’s own website and on third-party forums). They will help form an initial opinion - after the consultation you will be able to decide whether other patients were objective.
Important! The clinic must meet all the listed requirements, but you must first choose a doctor for treatment - the final result of the treatment depends on his skill and professionalism.
This is a list of the minimum requirements that a high-quality dental prosthetics clinic must meet. In the city of Moscow there are several thousand dentists where dental prosthetics can be performed. But not all of them monitor their own reputation and provide quality services. Therefore, we present a rating of clinics where you can safely contact the problem of missing teeth. Professional doctors work here, and the pleasant atmosphere and cozy setting will make the process of complex treatment more comfortable.
