Prosthodontics

The specialty of a prosthodontist focuses on the replacement and esthetic restoration of teeth. Specialists in prosthodontics are trained to manage lots of clinical situations;

Including

Dentures – these may be complete (replacing all teeth) or partial (replacing some teeth).

Tooth wear – increasingly common is toothwear and prosthodontists help manage this.

Crowns

Bridges – replacing multiple lost teeth.

Implants – prosthodontists will generally “restore” implants – i.e. by placing the crowns or dentures on top of the implant.
