Dental prosthesis is the term for any fixed or removable dental appliance for example an acrylic or chrome denture, a metal, gold, silver or porcelain crown etc.. acrlylic dentures are not as strong and comfortable as a chrome denture, a porcelain crown is more aesthetic then other crown and a lot stronger then a filling.

Mostly the dental prosthesis is made of porcelain. This would increase the face value. it manipulates the appearance of the smile. The main disadvantage of this process is its expensiveness.
