Why Algodones for Prettau Plate Implant Bridge?

Almost everyone has tooth decay by the age of 65.

Even so, nearly half of adults in this age group have untreated tooth decay or gum disease severe enough to cause tooth loss.1

This is majorly because of poor oral hygiene and expensive dental care in America.

Most Americans and Canadians do not have access to affordable dental services.

Hence, they look forward to Los Algodones for their dental needs.

The border town has the following advantages over other American cities:

  • Big savings of upto 70%
  • Expert dental surgeons & bilingual staff
  • Its close proximity to the US, with Yuma, AZ, just 7 miles west, makes it an easy-to-reach destination for Americans

Here’s why you should choose Prettau plate implant bridge:

  • Zirconia plate with dental implants in Los Algodones is a mix of contemporary dentistry with the latest technology
  • Unlike traditional restorative material, it does not chip, crack, or stain

There are obvious aesthetic issues with missing teeth, people self- conscious while speaking & smiling

Advantages of Prettau Plate Implant Bridge

Dental Implant Bridge for Full Mouth Restoration

Dental Implants are artificial teeth roots that are surgically placed in the jawbone.2

This facilitates better eating and can be used for full mouth or upper/ lower jaw tooth replacement.

Let’s explore some features of the Prettau® Bridge below:

  • Highly durable zirconia
  • Combination of zirconia with yttrium
  • Novel alternative to traditional dentures
  • Highly translucent with high bending strength
  • Designed using CAD/CAM fabrication techniques
  • Lends a smoother finish to your MegaGen Implants

The Prettau® Zirconia Implant Bridge is the most esthetic option in dental implant restoration, with no acrylic or porcelain to chip or wear.

Who Can Opt for Zirconia Implant Bridge?

People who are missing multiple teeth make good candidates for Prettau® zirconia dental implant bridges.

These patients should have sufficient jawbone and gum tissue formation in place to hold a dental bridge.

We’ll provide you with detailed information about dental implant bridges and dentures.

Benefits of Zirconia Bridge With Implants

  • Zirconia is biocompatible, with low plaque adhesion7
  • Does not cause allergies to the human body8
  • Zirconia restorations cause less tooth damage than acrylic dental bridges and dentures
  • It does not stain, break, chip, and discolor over time9
  • Prettau® Bridge Dental Implants use zirconia, which is much more durable and longer lasting than plastic restorations
  • The cumulative 5-year survival rate of tooth-supported zirconia-based fixed dental prostheses (FDPs) is 93.3%10

Why not Dentures?

Although traditional dentures are a common solution for missing teeth, they have certain disadvantages.

A conventional denture rests directly on top of the gums with no underlying support, resulting in bone loss.

Meanwhile, a dental bridge provides a longer-term solution for tooth replacement.

They support better chewing and eating functions and also prevent bone loss.

Dentures vs. Prettau® Implant Bridges

The Process

  • The implants that are to secure the bridge are carefully embedded in your jawbone.
  • Once osseointegration takes place, the implants fuse with your jawbone.
  • You will be provided with a temporary plastic bridge for your routine comfort.
  • A custom CAD/CAM Implant Bridge will be designed to your precise needs in our on-site Dental Lab in Los Algodones.
  • It is tailored from a solid mass of zirconia, the strongest and most durable dental material available.
  • The Prettau® Bridge is fine-tuned for last-minute changes and then placed in your mouth.

Aftercare for Zirconia Implant Bridge

Thorough oral hygiene is crucial to avert diseases around the implants.

With proper home care and regular professional maintenance, you can make sure your new teeth last long.

The following should be incorporated for better implant maintenance:

You should use special implant brushes like interdental brushes, which provide access to tough-to-reach areas.11
You will also find implant floss, which is specially designed to clean the implants and bridges.
Brushing alone does not remove plaque; flossing helps prevent gum disease & cavities.12
Brush with fluoride toothpaste twice daily.
Avoid chewing hard and sticky foods.
Do not smoke; avoid alcohol, as it can stain your teeth.
Aftercare for Zirconia Implant Bridges

Many of our dental experts have undergone dentistry courses at prestigious institutions around the world. 

These include the Harvard School of Dental Medicine.

Their knowledge is at par with dentists practicing in the USA.

You can be assured you are in safe hands from the beginning of the treatment to the last follow-up.
