Prosthesis is to dentistry what internal medicine is to medicine. Within this field there are various treatment options: fixed prosthesis, removable prosthesis, full prosthesis, partial…
At the Vilaboa Dental Clinic we believe that no technique is better than another rather that every patient requires an individual treatment and a detailed analysis that helps us to recommend the most suitable solution for each individual.
Dr Débora Vilaboa leads the prosthesis department. This broad field ranges from the prosthesis over a natural tooth, such as a crown or filling, to the prosthesis of implants. So that a prosthesis is durable and satisfactory, there are two fundamental factors to consider: functionality and aesthetics.
The success of the prosthesis is determined by a thorough examination of the patient’s clinical situation and wishes, the appropriate use of the most conservative techniques possible, the knowledge of the materials used and a suitable maintenance plan.
The main objective of prosthesis is to achieve a happy, healthy and balanced smile. Aesthetics and prosthesis go hand in hand to seek to improve the quality of life of our patients. We use new technology to design the smile digitally. (Digital Smile Design).
We select the most appropriate material for each case; porcelain, lithium disilicate, zirconia or zirconia oxide, or concepts such as prosthesis with immediate loading of bone-graft maxilla to increase the satisfaction of our patients through lasting and aesthetic treatments that allow them to live a fuller life.
The Vilaboa Dental Clinic makes digital technology available to the patient which allows conventional impressions, or moulds, to be created offering a degree of adjustment and integration, which is superior to traditional techniques.
