What is a fixed dental prosthesis?
A fixed dental prosthesis is a restorative solution designed to replace one or more missing teeth permanently. Unlike removable prostheses, they are cemented or screwed onto natural teeth or dental implants, so they cannot be removed by the patient.
The objective is to give the patient back the sensation, function and esthetics of natural teeth, allowing them to eat, speak and smile with total confidence and without worrying about the prosthesis moving.
At Face Clinic, our prosthodontics specialists design each prosthesis to measure, using high quality materials such as zirconium or porcelain, to guarantee a perfect fit and an unbeatable aesthetic result.
What problems does a fixed dental prosthesis solve?
A fixed prosthesis goes far beyond replacing teeth. It is a treatment that solves multiple problems:
- Restores chewing function: Go back to eating what you want without fear or discomfort.
- Improves aesthetics and self-esteem: Smile with total confidence thanks to a 100% natural result.
- Provides maximum stability and comfort: Forget about adhesives and dentures moving. It feels like your own teeth.
- Slows oral decay: Prevents adjacent teeth from shifting or tilting and, if on implants, helps preserve the jawbone.
- Improves phonetics: Allows to speak and pronounce correctly, improving communication.

Types of Fixed Dental Prosthesis
There are different types of fixed prostheses. The choice will depend on the number of teeth to be replaced and the state of your mouth. At Face Clinic, our specialists will recommend the most suitable for you.
Crowns on implants
These are individual prostheses that are placed on a damaged natural tooth (due to caries, fracture, or endodontics) or on a single dental implant to restore its shape, function, and aesthetics.
Fixed Dental Bridges
They replace one or more missing teeth consecutively. It is supported by the natural teeth adjacent to the gap, which are carved to serve as pillars and support the structure. It is a fixed and aesthetic solution that avoids the use of implants in certain cases.
Fixed Prosthesis on Implants
When tooth loss is extensive or total, implants are the best basis for a fixed prosthesis.
- Fixed Denture on 4 Implants (All-on-Four): The All-on-Four technique is a revolutionary solution for those who have lost all the teeth in an arch. By placing four implants at strategic points, a complete and fixed prosthesis is supported. This method makes it possible to restore a fixed denture on 4 implants that is functional and aesthetic, often on the same day of surgery, thanks to immediate loading.
- Fixed Denture on 6 Implants (All-on-Six): All-on-Six treatment offers maximum stability for full-arch rehabilitation, especially when superior support is sought. Six implants are placed to optimally distribute forces, creating an extremely robust base. The result is a fixed denture on 6 implants with a very natural feel and exceptional long-term durability.

What is the price of a fixed dental prosthesis in Spain?
The price of a fixed dental prosthesis varies considerably depending on the type, material, and number of teeth to be replaced. A single crown is not the same as a complete implant-supported restoration.
The factors that most influence the budget are:
- Type of prosthesis: crown, bridge or complete rehabilitation.
- Material: zirconium, porcelain, metal-ceramic, etc.
- Number of implants needed (if required).
- Need for previous treatments: extractions, bone grafts, etc.

Frequently asked questions about fixed dental prostheses
What is the difference between a fixed and a removable prosthesis?
The main difference is comfort and stability. A fixed prosthesis is anchored to your teeth or implants and cannot be removed, functioning like your natural teeth. A removable prosthesis (removable) rests on the gums and must be removed for cleaning, and may be less comfortable and stable when eating or speaking.
How long does a fixed dental prosthesis last?
With good care and regular check-ups, a fixed dental prosthesis is designed to last for many years, often more than 15 or 20. If it is supported by implants, the base can last a lifetime. Longevity depends on the patient’s hygiene and the quality of the materials, so at Face Clinic we only use the best.
Can a fixed prosthesis be placed if all my teeth are missing?
Yes, it is the best solution. Using techniques such as All-on-4 or All-on-6, we can place a complete and fixed dental arch on only 4 or 6 implants. This allows you to recover all your teeth in a single day, giving you back the ability to eat and smile normally. Make an appointment at Face Clinic for an evaluation.
Does it require any special care?
The care is very similar to that of natural teeth: a good daily brushing and the use of additional elements such as oral irrigators or special dental floss for prosthesis. The most important thing is to attend the check-ups and professional cleanings that we will schedule at Face Clinic to keep the tissues that support it healthy.
Can I improve the aesthetics of my other teeth at the same time?
Of course, it is! It is the ideal time for a comprehensive smile design. Before fabricating the definitive fixed prosthesis, we can perform a dental whitening on your other teeth so that the prosthesis becomes a whiter and brighter colour. We can also combine it with dental veneers for a perfect and homogeneous smile result.
Is the treatment painful?
No. All procedures are performed under local anaesthesia, so you will not feel pain. If the treatment requires implant surgery, and you feel anxious, at Face Clinic we offer conscious sedation so that you are completely relaxed and comfortable during the whole process.
