What is Fixed Temporary Teeth?



They are fixed prostheses prepared within 1 – 7 days after the implant operation and used by screwing to the implants.


During the recovery period after implant placement (between 2 and 4 months), permanent prostheses cannot be made to the patient. Because after the implants are placed in the jawbone, it is necessary to wait for osseointegration (fusion with the bone). During this period, both osseointegration is completed and soft tissue healing takes its final shape. At the request of the patients, some temporary removable prostheses can be made during this waiting period. However, temporary removable prostheses can cause problems in terms of dental implant healing. Thanks to more detailed research on implants and our developing technological infrastructure, we can now place fixed temporary teeth on implants within 1-7 days after the dentate implant operation.


When the necessary operational conditions for the construction of fixed temporary prosthesis are provided, the healing problems that can be caused by temporary prostheses can be screwed to the implants at a minimum. As the complications of temporary removable prostheses are quite high, they are rarely preferred by physicians. If a fixed temporary prosthesis cannot be made, it is generally expected that the recovery period will pass without a temporary tooth.



Her İmplantın Üzerine Sabit Geçici Diş Yapılabilir mi?



During the implant operation, the compression value between the implant and the jawbone is measured. If these values and the number of implants are suitable for the construction of a fixed temporary tooth (prosthesis), the physician performing the surgical procedure will make the decision to make a temporary tooth. In cases where bone graft and membrane are applied, fixed or mobile temporary teeth are generally not preferred even if the required compression value is hold. If the person undergoing the implant operation has habits such as squeezing or grinding the teeth (because it causes a long-term excessive load on the teeth), temporary teeth are not applied. Such situations can directly impair implant healing. Dr. Çağdaş Çağlar Laçin makes the necessary preparations for temporary tooth construction immediately after the operation, if a temporary tooth can be applied. In the clinic of Dr. Çağdaş Çağlar Laçin, fixed temporary teeth are made in 70 % of the cases where anterior region (Aestheetic area) implants are made.




Sabit Geçici Diş Nasıl Yapılır?



It can be produced with CAD / CAM in the laboratory by taking measurements by attaching impression pieces . It can be fixed directly to the mouth after production, or it can be fixed after a rehearsal if necessary . This decision is made by the dentist who makes the prosthesis according to the harmony in the mouth.



What are the Advantages of Fixed Temporary Teeth?



  • There is less aesthetic loss with fixed temporary teeth. Therefore, social life is not affected much. (Although it is not as strong as permanent teeth, it feels more comfortable in appearance.)
  • It is more comfortable and more aesthetic than the removable prosthesis.
  • Since the gingival healing around the implant is relative to the temporary tooth, a second surgical procedure is not required when making a fixed tooth. When the healing period is completed, the temporary teeth can be directly removed and impressions can be taken for the permanent teeth.
  • When permanent prosthesis is made, gingival healing can be done in a shorter time since it will not be expected again.
  • The patient can inform the dentist about the points he likes or dislikes in the temporary tooth when permanent teeth are to be made.


How Are Fixed Temporary Teeth Made?



  • Temporary teeth, whether fixed or mobile, always increase the risk for implant healing. Because if enough attention is not given, the implants can be overloaded and their fusion with the bone can be prevented.
  • If the recommendations for nutrition are not followed, the implant operation may fail. - It cannot be applied to smokers.
  • Cannot be applied to people who have the habit of grinding, teeth clenching (bruxism).
  • Fixed temporary teeth are brittle because they are produced from a less durable material than permanent teeth. It is very important not to interrupt the oral care recommended by the doctor.
