Dental prosthetics
Temporary tooth dropped out? Your crown got lost! What should you do?
Loose crown?
Try to remove the crown. If you succeed, then go to the nearest dentist. Keep your mouth shut, then the tooth stub usually does not hurt. If you are in Vienna, you can always come to us during our opening hours. If you do not succeed in removing the loose crown from your mouth, then an immediate visit to the dentist is advisable, avoiding mouth movement to prevent another fracture of the tooth stump.
Broken dental prosthetic?
Repairing a dental prosthetic inlay takes (in our office) two hours. Either we help can you immediately, or the next morning, just call and come over. It is best to wrap the broken prosthetic in a clean cloth and come to us with it. Some patients glue their prosthetic in their mouth with super glue. If you are talented and have an optimal fracture line, this may hold for some time, but it is not a permanent solution.
Dark edge around your crown?
The causes for a dark rim around a the tooth crown are many. This could be a non-optimal root canal treatment, leaking crown edges, metal-ceramic crowns, discoloration of your tooth root in case of gum recession, thin gums and much more. If you want, take a picture of the situation and send it to us via WhatsApp or email, so we can tell you more! The therapy depends on the particular cause.

If you are satisfied, then you make an appointment with the office (for example, by telephone) and state your decision. We prepare the tooth stumps, take impressions and send you home with a provisional tooth. 3-7 days later you get your dental bridge or dental crown.
Lifelong fillings
Ceramic inlays can last 30-60 years. Depending on the chewing and eating behavior and inlay size, ceramic inlays last for decades. Unfortunately, dental fillings are often skimped on and cheap fillings are chosen that only last a few years, so the fillings have to be changed every few years and with each change a little tooth substance is lost. The dental fillings get bigger and hold shorter and shorter, because a large filling is more affected by chewing and also has less and less retention to the tooth. In the end, it comes too often to a root canal and so the dental status decreases over the decades. But that does not have to be the case, good material for dental fillings, proper processing and optimal care guarantee teeth for a lifetime! Ask us about ceramic inlays.

Digital planning
Our dentures are made in the in-house laboratory. We work with the current technologies (intraoral scanner, 3D printer, CAD / CAM) on your dentures. Modern radiography (DVT) enables digital planning, saving you time and increasing accuracy. With optimal planning, we can produce the dentures within a day. Immediately in the morning, the impression is made, the data is sent to our own milling machine and in the afternoon, the tooth crown is ready for pickup. If it’s not urgent, then you wait for your dentures usually 3-7 days. In the meantime, of course, you have a provisional. If you are interested, you can visit us anytime and see the production of your dentures. Just get in touch with our office.
Frequently Asked Questions
Here you can find questions and answers about dentures and dental prosthetics in general.
how much do new teeth cost?
What does a crown cost?
What does a dental veneer cost?
If there is more to do we can talk about a discount, but it is important that your mouth is completely healthy. Above all, veneers are aesthetic treatments – for a perfect esthetics the mouth should be healthy. Because only a healthy mouth is beautiful in the long run! So no fanged teeth, no tooth decay, dense fillings, clean root canal treatments, stable lateral dentition and healthy periodontium. Frequently, other work is added to veneers and this can be reflected in the costs. Of course one can deviate from these textbook specifications, but the danger is then that one does not enjoy the veneers for a long time, e.g. due to fractures. You want veneers and can not afford them in the foreseeable future? Ask if we’re looking for a case to film. We make a lot of videos – don’t worry, you won’t be able to be recognized – depending on what you need, we can sometimes offer reduced prices.
