Removable prosthesis & dental stellite

by Anveli Dental

We say that a dental prosthesis is removable because it can be removed for maintenance. The fact that it can be removed poses many inconveniences since it can fall during a discussion or during a meal. A dental prosthesis can replace all or part of the teeth.
