The Applicability of Functional Analysis in Fixed Prosthetics

Abstract Prost hetics is a field that requires a very good synergy between the dentist and the dental technician in order to create a prothetic treatment that is precise, functional and has also a good aesthetic. A good communication between the two parties is very important because, in most cases, dental technicians are located remotely and often do not see the patient. Functional analysis is an important requirement for diagnosing many different syndromes, which are usually associated with incorrect loading of the temporomandibular joint or dysfunctions. Fixed prosthesis focused on permanently attached (fixed) dentures. Such dental restorations, also called indirect restorations, include crowns, bridges (fixed prostheses), inlays, onlays and veneers. Fixed prosthesis can be used to restore one or more individual teeth, covering areas where the teeth have been lost. In general, the main advantages of fixed prosthetics compared to direct restorations are the superior strength when used in large restorations and the ability to build a tooth that has also a good aesthetic shape. As with any dental restoration, the principles used to determine Proper restoration involves taking into account the materials to be used, the extent of the tooth damage, the orientation and location of the teeth and the condition of the adjacent teeth.
