Prosthetic dental treatment is the rebuilding of missing or severely damaged teeth with crowns, bridges, or full or partial dentures. Fixed prostheses (crowns and bridges) are usually completed in 1–2 weeks, and removable dentures in 2–4 weeks.
Losing teeth, or teeth that are badly worn, directly affects chewing, speech and facial appearance. Gaps left untreated for a long time cause neighboring teeth to drift and the bite to change.
Prosthetic dental treatment (prosthodontics) is a broad group of treatments that make up for these losses. Different solutions, from crowns that protect a single tooth to prostheses covering the entire jaw, are planned according to the patient's oral structure and expectations.
At Atayeter Oral and Dental Health Clinic in Çayırova, durable and aesthetic prostheses are made from materials that closely resemble natural teeth, such as zirconia, E-max and porcelain.
Advantages of prosthetic dental treatment
- Restores chewing function and speech
- Provides aesthetic results that match the color of natural teeth
- Prevents neighboring teeth from drifting into the gap
- Strengthens teeth that have had root canal treatment or are fractured
- Reduces sagging of the facial contours
Who is prosthetic dental treatment suitable for?
Suitable for
- People missing one or a few teeth
- Teeth with large fillings, fractures or previous root canal treatment
- Patients who have lost all their teeth
- Teeth with discoloration or irregular shape
- People who want to replace old, ill-fitting dentures
Points to consider
- Untreated gum disease (gum health must be restored first)
- Untreated decay or root canal problems in the supporting teeth
- Clenching or grinding the teeth at night (a protective night guard may be needed)
Prosthetic dental treatment methods and types
Zirconia crowns and bridges
A metal-free, highly translucent and durable material. It gives aesthetic, strong results on both front and back teeth.
E-max (all-ceramic) crowns
Provide aesthetics very close to natural teeth, especially in the front area.
Porcelain-fused-to-metal
A durable and economical option that has been used for many years.
Full and partial removable dentures
Dentures that can be put in and taken out when all or some of the teeth are missing.
Implant-supported prostheses
Fixed or removable prostheses attached to implants eliminate the looseness of conventional removable dentures.
The prosthetic dental treatment process step by step
Examination and planning
The condition of the teeth and gums is examined, and the appropriate type of prosthesis and material are chosen.
Preparation
If needed, fillings, root canal treatment or gum treatment are done; the supporting teeth are prepared.
Digital impression
Instead of impression paste, a 3D digital impression is taken with an intraoral scanner; temporary teeth are fitted.
Try-in and shade selection
The framework and tooth color are checked; shape and fit are assessed together with you.
Delivery and check-up
The prosthesis is cemented in place or delivered, and bite adjustments are made.
How long does prosthetic dental treatment take?
| Stage | Approximate duration |
|---|---|
| Fixed prosthesis (crown, bridge) | 1–2 weeks, 3–4 sessions |
| Removable denture | 2–4 weeks, 4–5 sessions |
| Implant-supported prosthesis | 1–2 weeks after healing |
| Adjustment period (removable) | A few weeks |
Durations are average values and may vary depending on your oral structure and any additional procedures needed.
What to watch out for after prosthetic dental treatment
- Clean under and around crowns and bridges with dental floss or bridge floss
- Brush removable dentures every day; take them out at night and store them in a clean container
- Avoid biting very hard foods with your front teeth
- If you clench your teeth, use a night guard
- Come in for a check-up at least twice a year

What affects the cost of dental prosthetics in Çayırova?
The fee for prosthetic treatment depends on the type of prosthesis (crown, bridge, removable), the material used (zirconia, E-max, porcelain-fused-to-metal) and the number of teeth to be treated.
The exact fee is determined according to the treatment plan prepared after the examination and any necessary imaging, and it is clearly communicated to you before treatment begins. Quoting a price over the phone or online without an examination does not allow for accurate planning; we therefore recommend filling out the preliminary assessment form or visiting our clinic.

Frequently asked questions about Dental Prosthetics
What is the difference between fixed and removable dentures?
Fixed prostheses (crowns, bridges) are bonded to teeth or implants and are not taken out. Removable dentures can be taken out and put back in for cleaning.
How long does a zirconia crown last?
With regular care and check-ups, it can be used for many years. Its lifespan depends on oral hygiene, teeth-clenching habits, and the health of the supporting tooth.
Is it hard to eat with dentures?
Fixed prostheses provide chewing close to that of natural teeth. Getting used to removable dentures usually takes a few weeks.
How much of the tooth is reduced when a crown is made?
It varies depending on the material, but about 1–2 mm is removed from the tooth surface. The aim is to keep tissue loss to the minimum possible.
Do prosthetic teeth look natural?
Zirconia and all-ceramic materials let light through in a way similar to natural teeth. When the color and shape are chosen to suit your face, the result looks natural.
Does a removable denture cover the palate?
Full upper dentures usually cover the palate. With implant-supported dentures, a design without palate coverage is possible.
Can I get zirconia crowns in Çayırova?
Yes. At Atayeter Çayırova Dental Clinic, zirconia crowns, zirconia bridges, and zirconia teeth on implants are planned and placed using digital impressions.
