Dental prostheses are solutions to replace missing teeth, restoring functionality, aesthetics, and confidence to your smile.

DENTAL PROSTHETICS IN MARBELLA:
FIXED AND REMOVABLE

Dental prosthetics in Marbella are an effective solution for restoring the functionality and aesthetics of your smile. At Clínica Dental Herrera, we offer personalized Marbella dental prosthetics, both fixed and removable, tailored to the needs of each patient.
 
 
Fixed Dental Prosthetics
 
Fixed prosthetics are those that the patient cannot remove. They can be placed on dental implants or supported by natural teeth. They are designed to offer a permanent solution with a natural look and great comfort.
 
 
Removable Dental Prosthetics
 
Removable prosthetics, also known as “dentures,” can be taken out and put back in by the patient. They are supported by the gums or natural teeth using clasps or metal supports. They are a faster and more affordable option, though less stable than fixed ones.

More than 5,000 successful fixed and removable prosthetic treatments performed.

WHO CAN GET FIXED OR REMOVABLE PROSTHETICS?

This type of treatment is indicated for:
  • People with one or more missing teeth.
  • Patients with total tooth loss.
  • People looking to restore chewing function and aesthetics.
  • Those who have lost teeth due to cavities, trauma, or periodontal diseases.
The choice between fixed or removable will depend on factors such as bone condition, the number of missing teeth, budget, and lifestyle.

OUR ADVICE:
WHICH ONE DO WE RECOMMEND?

Whenever possible, we recommend fixed prosthetics on implants. Why? Because they offer a more stable, aesthetic, and functional solution, very similar to natural teeth. They improve chewing, speech, confidence when speaking and smiling, and do not cause discomfort. Although the initial investment is higher, the long-term benefits are much more notable. That said, we analyze each case individually to offer you the best option according to your situation, oral health, and preferences.

5/5

Excellent service and attention on every visit! The clinic team is professional and friendly, always attentive to every detail to ensure your comfort. The facilities are modern and clean, and they use advanced technology.

5/5

They are simply the best. I've spent over 20 years going from dentist to dentist for various problems, and they are the only ones who have been able to give me a permanent solution. On the other hand, they have given my mother her life back.

5/5

I had a series of dental fillings done last summer. They were quite complicated because the fillings were on molars that had been heavily filled previously, almost reaching the nerve, but I haven't had any problems. They are excellent professionals.

5/5

I went for a cleaning and to request an evaluation for treatment. I got an appointment quickly, and the reception staff were incredibly helpful. The woman who did the cleaning was also very competent. And the doctor who did the evaluation for treatment explained everything very well.

5/5

I've been to a dental clinic and my experience has been wonderful. Friendly service and highly qualified professionals. I will definitely recommend them.

5/5

I had invisible orthodontic treatment, fillings (with Dr. Belen and Elena, who are very professional as well as pleasant) and veneer treatment with Dr. Rafael and I couldn't be happier with the result
