All Ceramic / Alumina Dental Bridge

All Ceramic Dental Bridge / Alumina Dental Bridge is esthetically superior than Porcelain Fused to Metal Crown & Bridge. With all ceramic materials, metal associated allergic reaction by the patient is eliminated. Sensitivity level to cold and warm is also reduced. Long term esthetics is also achieved because they are biocompatible, thus all ceramic dental bridge integrate better with surrounding soft tissue. Alumina, aluminum oxide, is amphoteric oxide of aluminum. Alumina is more transluscent than Zirconia.

Alumina Dental Bridge

4-Unit Alumina Dental Bridge which was fabricated to restore missing teeth, 11 and 21, FDI Two-Digit Notation, upper right central incisor and upper left central incisor.

Flexible Maxillary Removable Partial Denture

A Maxillary Removable Partial Denture with flexible framework was made for a 42 year old female patient.

Occlusion in Denture Construction

Occlusal factors which are considered in Denture Construction:

Muscles

These are the drivers of the system and are what put it all in the motion. They include muscles of mastication and posture, and their adaptability.

Skeleton

Genetic and functional demands strongly affect occlusion. Consider deep Class II malocclusions with exaggerated Curves of Wilson and Curves of Spee.

Joints

Unique in that they function as a pair and dislocate during normal function. Capable of significant remodelling and susceptilble to damage.

Dentition

Dominates the entire system by establishing maximum intercuspation. Establishing a centric occlusion with no sloping interferences is the basis for long term stability.

Patient

Psychological aspects of patient’s expectations and perceptions will either nullify or exaggerate any of the other factors.
