DEPARTMENT OF IMPLANTS AND PROSTHETICS
Implants, Crowns and Prosthetics for Stronger Smiles

This specialty deals with the rehabilitation of teeth and jaw structures lost or damaged due to disease, trauma, or congenital reasons. Today, replacing lost teeth is successfully carried out using implants, crowns, bridges, and other advanced prosthetics. Replacing a missing tooth is vital; a gap not only affects smile aesthetics but also impacts a person’s speech and self-esteem. Furthermore, the supporting bone degenerates if a tooth is not replaced in a timely manner, which can lead to premature facial wrinkling. When teeth are lost on one side, a person tends to chew exclusively on the other side. This creates an uneven load that can eventually damage the jaw joints (TMJ).

At Al Shamil, missing teeth are restored using implants, crowns, bridges, veneers, removable prostheses, and advanced prosthetic treatment options.

Smile Function and Facial Balance

At Al Shamil, we have excellent implantologists and prosthodontists capable of handling the most complex cases, including bone augmentation.

A. Implants

Implants are biocompatible titanium anchorage devices inserted into the jawbone. The body naturally forms a layer of new bone around the implant, securing it firmly in place. We then attach a custom tooth on top, resulting in a highly natural appearance and exceptional strength. Implants can replace single missing teeth, multiple teeth, or complete upper and lower arches, making full-mouth rehabilitation long-lasting and straightforward.

B. Veneers

Veneers are thin laminates of ceramic material used to cover the front surface of teeth that are cracked, chipped, or discolored. They are widely used to enhance smile aesthetics and facial symmetry. We offer a variety of options, including ceramic, E-max, and feldspathic materials. Veneers offer a highly aesthetic finish and may involve a minor reduction of the tooth structure depending on the material chosen.

C. Crowns and Bridges

Crowns and bridges are artificial teeth made of zirconia or ceramic materials used to restore missing teeth. They rely on existing or adjacent teeth for support to bridge the gap. This remains one of the most reliable ways to restore the aesthetics and function of lost teeth, looking and functioning just like natural dentition.

D. Removable Prostheses

Removable prostheses are devices designed to replace missing teeth as well as lost jaw or facial structures. They are indicated when bone volume is insufficient for implants or when there are no adjacent teeth to support a fixed bridge. Made from biocompatible materials, they adapt well to oral tissues to restore functional stability and facial balance.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Implants, Crowns and Prosthetics FAQs

Implants are titanium devices placed into the jawbone to securely anchor artificial teeth.

A crown and bridge setup is a ceramic or zirconia prosthesis placed over existing teeth or implants to replace one or more missing teeth.

An implant receives direct support from the bone, whereas a traditional bridge relies on adjacent teeth, requiring the grinding down of healthy, normal tooth structure.

Missing teeth lead to gradual bone loss and can alter your speech and facial aesthetics over time. Therefore, timely replacement is highly recommended.

Some post-operative discomfort is expected, similar to the healing period after a routine tooth extraction, but it is highly manageable.

Full-mouth restorations can be completed using implant-supported bridges or full dentures.

Any artificial replacement for missing teeth or oral structures is referred to as a prosthesis.

A prosthodontist.

A crown can cost between 200 and 250 AED, depending on the material used.

Both approaches have distinct advantages and disadvantages depending on the patient’s individual bone density and oral health.
