Dental prosthetics
We carry out dental prosthetics in close cooperation with the best Latvian dental technical laboratories and the solutions offered by their modern technologies for maintaining an aesthetic smile.
There are two types of prostheses - removable (dental plates) and non-removable prostheses (metal-ceramic and zirconium crowns, veneers, bridges, and onlays, which are fixed structures and do not differ in any way from natural teeth). To achieve the most natural appearance, we recommend permanent dentures. This solution allows the patient to feel more comfortable on a daily basis, because the prosthesis remains in the oral cavity and is immobile. Therefore, the patient does not have to worry about them moving out of place while eating or talking.

Dental bridges
Dental crowns
Onlays
Veneers
Dental veneers are made when:
– if the natural tooth has pigment-like defects or has changed color;
– if the visible surface of the tooth is sealed;
– the tooth has lost its natural shape;
– in case of discomfort caused by widened dental gaps, etc.
Porcelain plates (dental veneers) are made individually for each patient, in close cooperation with the dental technical laboratory.
Dental plates
Prosthetic fabrication is a time-consuming process to create an individual prosthesis for each patient that fits comfortably in the patient's mouth. Until the final result, patients may have several holding sessions.
Specialists emphasize that the fitting process is essential in order to correct discomfort, if any, with the prosthesis in question. There is no need to be ashamed of this process and discomfort, a specialist can only help and deliver the best if the patient is open about the needs.
