Protéza: Co potřebujete vědět o náhradách zubů, cenách a typech

When you lose a tooth, it’s not just about appearance — it’s about chewing, speaking, and even keeping your other teeth in place. A protéza, náhrada chybějícího zubu nebo zubů, která obnovuje funkci i estetiku úst. Also known as zubní protéza, it can be fixed like a crown or removable like a partial denture — and choosing the right one matters more than you think. Many people think a protéza is just a quick fix, but the wrong type can lead to jaw pain, shifting teeth, or even bone loss over time.

There are several kinds of protézy you’ll come across. A zubní korunka, pevná náhrada, která se připevňuje na připravený zub nebo implantát, is often used for single missing teeth. If you’re missing several teeth in a row, a můstek, série korunek spojených dohromady a upevněných na sousední zuby might be suggested. But if you’ve lost multiple teeth or even a whole arch, a snímací protéza, odstraňovatelná náhrada, která se přidržuje pomocí přísavů nebo klíčů becomes the go-to option. And while implants are often the gold standard, they’re not always possible — especially if bone loss has already started. That’s when a well-made protéza can be your best practical choice.

Price varies wildly. A simple plastic snímací protéza might cost under 5,000 Kč, but a high-quality acrylic or metal-based one with precise fit can run 15,000–30,000 Kč. Zirkonová korunka, while not a full protéza, is often part of a larger replacement plan and can cost 5,000–12,000 Kč per unit. What you pay for isn’t just the material — it’s the fit, the dentist’s skill, and how long it will last. A poorly made protéza can hurt your gums, make eating frustrating, or even damage healthy teeth nearby. You don’t need the most expensive one, but you do need one that’s made for your mouth, not just off the shelf.

And it’s not just about the device itself. Proper care is non-negotiable. Snímací protézy need daily cleaning — no, rinsing under water isn’t enough. You need a special brush and soaking solution. Even if you have a fixed protéza, like a crown or bridge, you still need to clean under and around it. Plaque builds up fast, and that’s how gum disease starts — the very thing that caused you to lose teeth in the first place.

What you’ll find below are real, practical guides on everything from choosing between a crown and a full protéza, to understanding why some zubní protézy last decades while others fail in a year. You’ll see how pískování zubů prepares your mouth for a new prosthesis, how kompozitní fazety compare to full replacements, and why some people regret skipping implant consultations. These aren’t theory pages — they’re from people who’ve been there, made the mistakes, and figured out what actually works in Czech clinics today.
