Hay menos hits, pero a mi parecer es más correcto, según el collins:
disposable [dýs\'pəʊzəbl] adjective1 [nappy] desechable; de usar y tirar
disposable goods productos mpl desechables or no reutilizables

I have been thinking about this. If it is a prosthesis for use once and again: removable, if it is for only one use and then replace it: disposable. It depends upon the context.

"Fixed-detachable prosthesis - detachable prosthesis- a prosthetic replacement for missing natural teeth that is non-removable for the patient, yet the dentist is still able to remove it when necessary. It is also referred to as a fixed-detachable denture." (IMTEC Corp. Glossary, http://www.imtec.com/demo/glossary.php)
"radiographs of maxillary fixed detachable prosthesis with cantilever illustrating advanced bone loss on posterior fixture. Transition from fixed detachable prosthesis to maxillary implant ... http://dentalimplants-usa.com/Research/ManagPostMax/ManagPos...
