Prosthodontics

Prosthodontics is a recognised dental speciality pertaining to the diagnosis, treatment planning, rehabilitation, and maintenance of the oral function, comfort, appearance, and health of patients with the clinical conditions associated with missing or deficient teeth and/or oral and maxillofacial tissue

A prosthodontist is a dentist who  completed dental school plus at least three additional years of advanced training and education in an accredited prosthodontic graduate program. A prosthodontist is highly trained in cosmetics, dental implants, crowns, bridges, dentures, temporomandibular joint disorders( TMJ/TMD) and more

The term “ prostho” means replacement and “ dontist” means dealing with teeth. Essentially, prosthodontists are THE recognised experts when anything needs to be replaced in your mouth. This can range from a single tooth, multiple teeth, or  all teeth and gums in the mouth. While many other dentists can do some of these treatments, prosthodontists all the specialists dedicated to this type of care.

Prosthodontists have advanced training in restoring and replacing teeth. Prosthodontists   are considered the leaders of the dental treatment plan. They regularly lead teams of general dentists, specialists, and other health professionals to develop solutions for your dental needs

Choose a prosthodontist because of their advanced education and training, efficiency, and expertise with advanced technology.  Prosthodontists are extensively trained in state-of-the-art techniques and procedures for treating complex dental conditions and restoring optimum function and aesthetics.

Rigourous training and experience give prosthodontists a special understanding of the dynamics of a smile and the preservation of a healthy mouth
