Understanding Prosthodontics

Prosthodontics is a branch of dentistry dedicated to making replacements for missing or damaged teeth. The word “prosthodontics” comes from the words “prostho,” meaning replacement, and “dontist,” meaning teeth. This dental field focuses on restoring optimal oral health, function, comfort, and appearance for patients with various dental conditions.

Prosthodontics focuses on treating patients with a variety of oral health needs related to missing or malformed teeth, jaw, or mouth structures or tissues. The goal is always to restore optimal oral health and function as well as aesthetic restoration. Whether you’re missing a single tooth or need full mouth reconstruction, prosthodontic treatments can transform your oral health and quality of life.

Unlike general restorative dentistry, prosthodontics involves complex cases that require advanced planning and specialized techniques. Unlike general dentists, prosthodontists specialize in repairing natural teeth and replacing missing teeth. This field encompasses both the art and science of dental restoration, ensuring that your new teeth not only function properly but also complement your facial features and natural smile.

Comprehensive Prosthodontic Services

We offer a full range of prosthodontic treatments designed to address various levels of tooth loss and damage. Our comprehensive approach ensures that every aspect of your oral health and aesthetics is carefully considered in your treatment plan.

Dental Crowns

Dental crowns serve as protective caps that cover the entire visible portion of a damaged tooth above the gum line. A crown is utilized to cover the entire visible surface of a tooth above the gum line. Made of metal, porcelain fused to metal, ceramic, or even zirconia, crowns fit on top of a prepared tooth with intact roots. We use advanced materials to create crowns that blend seamlessly with your natural teeth while providing superior strength and durability.

Dental Bridges

When you’re missing one or more consecutive teeth, bridges offer an excellent solution for restoration. Bridges may be recommended for patients who are missing more than one tooth. They span the space where teeth are missing and are anchored to natural teeth or implants surrounding the missing teeth. Our custom-designed bridges restore your ability to chew effectively while maintaining proper bite alignment.

Dental Implants

Dental implants are tiny threaded posts used to replace missing tooth roots. They’re made from surgical-grade titanium or ceramic. Your dental provider places them into your jawbone. Once healed, these implants can support individual crowns, bridges, or even full dentures, providing the most natural-feeling tooth replacement option available.

Complete and Partial Dentures

For patients missing multiple teeth or all teeth in an arch, dentures provide an effective and affordable solution. Dentures and partial dentures are removable dental appliances created to replace missing teeth. Dentures are an important part of keeping the teeth and mouth in place when one or more teeth are missing. We create custom-fitted dentures that restore both function and facial support.

Advanced Treatment Options

Modern prosthodontics offers innovative solutions for complex cases that require comprehensive rehabilitation. These advanced treatments combine multiple techniques to achieve optimal results for patients with extensive dental needs.

Full Mouth Reconstruction

For patients with severe tooth loss, extensive damage, or complex bite issues, full mouth reconstruction may be necessary. This comprehensive approach involves carefully planning and coordinating multiple treatments to rebuild your entire smile. Our team evaluates every aspect of your oral health to create a treatment plan that addresses function, aesthetics, and long-term stability.

Implant-Supported Prosthetics Implant

Supported Fixed Prostheses are full arch restorations of porcelain/metal ceramic crowns/bridges or complete dentures retained/supported by multiple, strategically placed titanium implants. This is the ideal restorative solution when a patient is fully edentulous (without any teeth). These fixed solutions eliminate the need for removable dentures while providing superior stability and function.

TMJ Disorder Treatment

Many prosthodontic treatments can also address temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders. You should see a prosthodontist if you want to fix temporomandibular problems or disorders, as well as address sleep or snoring disorders. The temporomandibular area of your body includes the muscles and joints around your jaw. Properly designed restorations can improve bite alignment and reduce jaw strain.
