ABSTRACT:
A dental prosthesis and process of making and installing the same, wherein a plurality of individual artificial teeth are assembled on an arched contoured longitudinal support, are disclosed, as well as a kit containing detailed instructions and necessary supplies and equipment for carrying out the process. The artificial teeth are made of an acrylic resin, other composites or plastics or porcelain. Anterior natural teeth adjacent the space to be filled are step shaped lingually and etched to provide a base for bonding. Posterior teeth adjacent the space have the fossae deepened if needed. The arched contoured longitudinal support carrying the proper number of artificial teeth integrated with the support and each other is placed in the formed steps or deepened fossae on opposite sides of the space and bonded in place, lapped and smoothed. The procedure permits assembly of the prosthesis from separate teeth by the dentist and permits virtually all operations to be performed by the dentist--even on a one-visit basis. The margins of the prosthesis do not infringe on the crevicular space; therefore no irritating factors affect the gingival sulcus and no periodontal disease will result from the prosthesis. Flossing can be fully performed for hygiene purposes. This prosthesis performs all the functions of natural teeth including: mastication, speech, spatial support, facial contour and aesthetics.
