Dentures such as all-ceramic crowns, porcelain crowns, bridges, or onlays reproduce the dentition, delighting with their naturalness and beauty.
The crown is a visible part of the tooth, mostly a decisive element of an attractive smile. If it is widely damaged, it should be replaced with a prosthetic crown. It is fixed on the natural root of the tooth or a previously implanted implant. It is a permanent restoration, which provides excellent comfort of use.
In our dental clinic, we recommend all-ceramic and porcelain crowns with high durability and resistance. All-ceramic crowns are made entirely of pure ceramics. This material is characterized by high translucency, which affects the extremely natural appearance of the denture. They are used primarily in the front section of the jaw and mandible.
Porcelain crowns
Porcelain crowns on a zirconium foundation, just like all-ceramic crowns let light through, are one of the most frequently used prosthetic restorations. What is more, a porcelain crown perfectly imitates a natural tooth, and it becomes extremely difficult to notice the differences between them. They can be easily placed on both healthy teeth and those after endodontic treatment.
The use of an extremely aesthetic material, which is porcelain, ensures very satisfactory results for the Patient. First of all, it guarantees the given reconstruction a much higher strength than in the case of a prosthesis made exclusively of ceramics. Secondly, we can confirm that such porcelain crowns give much better results in terms of the effect achieved – the restoration is almost imperceptible, thanks to the fact that the material used behaves in a very similar way to natural enamel.
Our offer also includes porcelain crowns on a metal base, which are also highly durable, but do not guarantee such an aesthetic result. This is due to the fact that the foundation is used – if you take a good look at the gum line, you will see a slightly darker line. This may cause some discomfort among some of our patients, therefore it is recommended to use it in the lateral part of the dentition. However, it should be remembered that in extreme cases, the metal base of the crown may cause allergic reactions.
Hygiene of porcelain crowns is extremely simple, and most importantly, it is no different from the way natural teeth are cleaned. However, it should be remembered that special attention should be paid to brushing teeth at the point of transition of a tooth into a crown, because it is this „borderline” that is most exposed to plaque build-up. To sum up – the porcelain crown is extremely easy to keep clean, just remember the above guidelines.
Dental bridges
At our dental clinic in Gdansk, we make all-ceramic, porcelain, and zirconium oxide bridges. This type of restoration is very comfortable for the patient, perfectly imitates natural teeth, and at the same time significantly improves the aesthetics of the smile.
If the patient suffers from a much greater lack of teeth, choosing a bridge that reproduces from one to several teeth next to each other is the best solution. The dentist places crowns on the previously polished pillar teeth, i.e., those surrounding the gap. They are connected by spans, which build the bridge.
Dentures such as bridges or porcelain crowns are also placed on implants (dentures on implants) after fully healed and grown together with the bone. Such a solution is characterized by high stability, and there is no risk of displacement or falling out of the denture. Dentures on implants are durable and resistant to damage.

Tooth veneers are a reliable and non-invasive way to mask small smile imperfections. These thin flakes of porcelain or composite attached to the front of the tooth hide discoloration or unevenness. Porcelain veneers are a durable and safe method to achieve stunning results.
OnLay type fillings
In Titanium Dental, we also use onlay fillings ideally suited to the patient’s needs. They work perfectly well when the cavity is extensive. They are created based on an impression taken from a previously developed tooth, thanks to which they perfectly recreate its shape with grooves and nodules. Such reconstruction strengthens the tooth, is more challenging than a classic filling, and also helps in maintaining hygiene.
Removable dentures
When it is not possible to use a permanent restoration, the choice of removable denture remains. There are several types of such dentures, which we select individually for each patient.
A thermoplastic denture is one of the best solutions. They do not lead to bone atrophy, because they do not settle on the gums, but have comfortable, flexible buckles. They are perfect for people prone to allergies. They can be perfectly matched to the color of teeth and gums.
Skeletal dentures are also used, created on a durable metal base. On the other hand, buckleless dentures do not have inconvenient and visible clasps, but they have snaps, bolts, or magnets.
At Titanium Dental, your dentist will choose a solution perfectly suited to your needs.
