A prosthodontist specializes in the maintenance of oral function, comfort, appearance and health by the replacement of missing teeth and oral tissues with artificial substitutes such as veneers, crowns, bridges, dentures and dental implants. Prosthodontists are diagnostic, treatment planning and restorative experts who commonly deal with complex cases. Dental cosmetics and smile rejuvenation are an area of our expertise.
EDUCATION
Prosthodontists complete an additional three years of graduate residency program beyond dental school. In addition to an extensive clinical education, this training features an in-depth study of dental materials and related sciences, hands-on experience with all dental laboratory procedures and collaboration with other dental specialists.
Prosthodontists are dedicated to the highest standard of care and can restore optimum function and appearance to your smile. From the simple to the complex, restorations are designed and created with precision, focusing on natural esthetics, biocompatibility and longevity.
