Aesthetics
Metal-free & highly aesthetic
Dental prosthetics in Offenbach-Bieber
Whether a tooth is badly damaged or missing altogether: modern dental prosthetics give you a beautiful, natural smile again and let you bite with confidence. Our patients most often ask for metal-free, highly aesthetic dental prosthetics – and that is exactly what we specialise in.
At our dental practice in Offenbach-Bieber we work with zirconia and ceramics as a matter of principle – for patients from all over Offenbach am Main and the district of Offenbach. These materials are tooth-coloured, let light through much like natural enamel, are very stable and well tolerated – including for anyone who does not want metal in their mouth.
Digitally made in our in-house lab: We scan your teeth digitally, design the restoration on the computer and mill it with CEREC directly in our practice.
Often in one day: This means inlays, partial crowns and crowns can often be fitted in a single appointment – without a conventional impression and without a temporary.
Everything from one source: From planning and implants to the finished restoration, you are cared for by us.
Digital & fast
Dental prosthetics in one day with CEREC
1. Digital scan: Instead of an impression with moulding material, we capture your teeth with a small intraoral camera. Within a few minutes, a precise 3D model appears on the screen.
2. Digital design: On the computer we design your crown, partial crown or inlay – to match your neighbouring teeth and your bite.
3. Milling in our in-house lab: The CEREC milling unit makes the restoration from a block of high-quality ceramic or zirconia – right in our practice.
4. Fitting: After fine-tuning and colour matching, we fit the restoration – in many cases during the same appointment.
For you this means: fewer appointments, no unpleasant impression tray and no temporary. Whether a same-day restoration is possible in your case depends on the findings and the material – we discuss this with you beforehand.
Aftercare: With regular check-ups and professional teeth cleaning your restoration stays beautiful for a long time.
Our options
Dental prosthetics at iDent
If a tooth is badly damaged, a crown or partial crown protects the remaining tooth and restores its shape. A partial crown only replaces the damaged part – so more healthy tooth structure is preserved.
We make crowns and partial crowns metal-free from zirconia or ceramics, often directly with CEREC in our practice. Find out more under Zirconia dental prosthetics and CEREC: dental prosthetics in one day.
For larger defects in back teeth, a ceramic inlay is often the more stable and more attractive alternative to a large filling. It is made to fit precisely using digital technology and bonded firmly to the tooth. Find out more under Inlays & partial crowns.
If a tooth is missing, a bridge can close the gap. It is attached to the neighbouring teeth or to implants. We also make bridges metal-free from zirconia – stable and natural-looking.
Veneers are wafer-thin ceramic shells that are bonded to the front of the teeth. They can visibly improve the shape, colour and minor irregularities of the front teeth. Find out more under Veneers.
For single teeth, several teeth or an entire jaw, we make highly aesthetic, fixed prosthetics on implants. For large bridges – for example following the All-on-4® or All-on-6® concept – we use hybrid restorations made of full zirconia. They contain no acrylic: the teeth and the gum section are made of zirconia, shaded in tooth and gum colours.
Full zirconia is highly fracture-resistant, colour-stable and easy to clean thanks to its smooth surface. Find out more about implants and fixed teeth in one day under Implantology.
Good to know
Frequently asked questions about dental prosthetics
What does metal-free dental prosthetics mean?
Crowns, bridges, inlays and veneers are made entirely of zirconia or ceramics – without a metal framework. This means there is no dark edge at the gum line and the restoration looks natural. Zirconia and ceramics are considered very well tolerated.
How long do zirconia or ceramic restorations last?
With good oral hygiene and regular check-ups, high-quality dental prosthetics can last for many years. Thorough brushing and regular professional teeth cleaning.
Can I get my crown in one day?
With CEREC we often make inlays, partial crowns and crowns in a single appointment. Whether this is possible in your case depends on the findings and the chosen material – we discuss this with you in advance.
Is there also fixed prosthetics on implants without acrylic?
Yes. For bridges on implants – up to an entire jaw – we make hybrid restorations from full zirconia that contain no acrylic at all. Find out more under Implantology.
