A dental jaw prosthesis is used to restore a person’s ability to chew food if natural teeth are completely or partially lost. There is a pavement and removable teeth restoration option. They differ in that the second prosthesis patient has the ability to independently remove for cleaning or during sleep. Modern dentures are so comfortable to wear that it is not necessary to take them out for the night, they do not cause any inconvenience to their owner.
In our time with prosthetics dentures uses the latest technological developments and advanced materials. Their strength allows you to grind solid food and remain for a long time in the same state.
A beautiful and aesthetic look of modern cupboards on the upper jaw allows to smile broadly. Wearing comfort allow you to experience the latest composite materials that do not have on the patient's body harmful and allergic reactions. Soft and flexible products are made exactly along the jaw and allow a person to fully enjoy the meal, despite wearing removable dentures.
Fastening structures become more invisible and keep high quality clasp prosthesis on the lower jaw in the mouth when talking, sneezing, which was not there before. For the attachment of dental structures in completely toothless gums, implants are inserted into the body of the gums, which are secured with full dentures. Removable product is made in case of loss of only one tooth.

Byugelny designs
Products, in the basis of which is enclosed curved arc, connecting the two sides of the removable jaw, are called byugelnyh. Such structures are used not only to restore the dentition, but also for the treatment of periodontal tissue. Clasp prostheses on the lower jaw are made with a base of solid material, mainly plastic.
Clasp prosthetics firmly included in dentistry. Clasp prosthesis in the upper jaw is distinguished by invisible anchorages extending behind a row of teeth across the sky. Clasp prosthesis in the lower jaw helps to chew food and works well for moving loads.
The time of habituation to a foreign body in the mouth with a byugel prosthetics is shortened due to the fact that such structures have an optimal shape and do not bring the patient any inconvenience.
Clasp prostheses on the upper jaw of nylon
Nylon material for the manufacture of temporary dental structures and for fitting prostheses used by doctors in the middle of the XIX century. After the improvement of the production of this material, it began to be used for permanent dentures at the dawn of our XX century.
Nylon is synthesized material polyamide, which properties close to an animal protein. Modern dentistry positively responds to the use of such products for the restoration of teeth.
Material under load resilient and restores the original desired shape. The strength of the clasp dentures on the upper jaw of nylon is very high, the material does not contain aggressive allergic components, flexible enough to repeat the shape of the gum bed.
Appearance nylon prostheses sometimes it is simply impossible to distinguish from the natural range of teeth. Fastening of the prostheses is carried out with clamps that are invisible in the color of the gums, which do not destroy the enamel of the abutment tooth. Healthy teeth designed to support prostheses are not ground, which significantly extends their service life.
When wearing nylon prostheses there is no indication for use special glue for fixingbecause the soft material in the manufacture of the prosthesis, allows you to get the most accurate configuration of the gums, and does not fall.
The disadvantages of nylon clutch designs
- The reason why nylon bypass dentures for the upper jaw is recommended is their softness and elasticity. The lower jaw is the most mobile and the main load during chewing falls on it. A product made of nylon, over time, is pressed in places where hard and tough food is ingested and changes its shape, and the hooks of soft material cannot hold onto the base of the tooth and rub the gingiva. That is why it is better to use nylon byugelnye products for the upper jaw, where the load is not so acute.
- The next disadvantage is need for very careful care for products from this material. For cleaning, it is necessary to purchase additional special cleaning pastes; it is not recommended to use ordinary toothpaste, as over time, the prosthesis will become covered with a network of minor scratches and lose an attractive appearance.
Acrylic (plastic) prostheses
Plastic constructions for prosthetics have found a very widespread distribution in the dental practice. The low price is advantageously combined with quality and strength characteristics.
Acryl refers to thermoplastic polymerswhich are synthesized from the acid contained in natural gas.
The high popularity of the use of acrylic clasp prostheses for the restoration of the dentition of the lower jaw is explained by such quality as resistance to destruction and wear.
Clasp prostheses when worn on the lower jaw perceive the main load and evenly distribute it over the entire surface of the jaw, without causing foci of inflammation from uneven pressing.
They fix the clasp structures to the upper and lower jaw with the help of clasps, which are sometimes visible in acrylic products.
Constant wearing of acrylic clasp prostheses does not cause any allergic reactions of the body. From the upper and lower jaws, the prosthesis is removed equally easily, with one touch of the fingers.
Acrylic Tooth Design does not require special care, for cleaning you can use simple pasta. With a very big rush can be made in a few days.
The main advantage is that healthy supporting teeth suffer relatively rarely, since not only are they loaded, but also the gums, which allows optimal performance of all components of the oral cavity.
Disadvantages of acrylic clasp prostheses
- Enough long term adaptation to a foreign body in the mouth. This is because the base, made of plastic, is rigid and can sometimes rub the tender body of the gum.
- Acrylic dentures allow for the development and multiplication of certain types of microbes; therefore, the main method of dealing with this situation is regular constant cleaning of prostheses, for which they must be removed from the oral cavity.
- Acryl under the action of persistent food dyes can over time lose or change colorThat will spoil the attractive appearance of the upper and lower jaw a little.
How to fix the clasp dentures
- Common fastening is considered to be clasps (hooks) for upper and lower jaw.Such fixing elements are composed of small durable springs that allow you to clasp the base of the tooth and contribute to the preservation of the enamel of a healthy adjacent tooth. The disadvantage is that due to the anatomical features of the dentition, it is not always possible to avoid the invisibility of the clasps with a wide smile.
- The modern method of attachment is use of micro locks (attachments). A crown is put on a healthy supporting tooth, into which one inconspicuous part of the lock is fixed. The second is located directly in the body of the clasp prosthesis. Such fixation is popular due to the fact that it is absolutely not noticeable in the oral cavity and allows you to laugh, hiding the fact of the presence of a denture.
- Fastening on implanted implantsUse if teeth are completely absent. Such artificial multi-layered microstructures are manufactured using the latest technologies. It is based on the natural fusion of implant tissue and gum bone tissue. The procedure is very long and expensive, but the results are striking in their effectiveness.
- Another option for attaching structures to the upper and lower jaws is telescopic fixation. The principle implies the presence of two recurring sheaths, one of which is mounted on the abutment tooth, and the second is inserted into the body of the prosthesis. At fastening one is put on from above on another. Manufacturing technology refers to a very complex way in its essence, but the resulting mount has the greatest durability of all possible.
To to choose the right design for prosthetics of the upper and lower jaws, you need the advice of a competent and experienced specialist. Only the dentist can take into account the objective and subjective factors for the choice of material and method of clasp prosthetics. We must not forget that only timely and constant visits to the dental clinic can postpone the process of prosthetics for a long time, since planned dental treatment will help preserve their health and beauty.
