Prosthodontics
Discover the transformative power of prosthodontics and witness the remarkable before and after results that leave individuals with outstanding oral health and a renewed smile. At our dental office, our skilled prosthodontists go beyond the standard four years of dental school, undergoing an additional three years of advanced dental training accredited by the American Dental Association. With their expertise in optimizing both the functionality and aesthetics of your smile, they take into account various elements such as teeth, gums, lips, facial features, and soft tissues in the mouth.
Restore and Replace with Prosthodontics
Our prosthodontists dedicate themselves to restoring and replacing damaged teeth caused by decay or injury. We offer a range of dental treatments falling under prosthodontics, including:
Veneers: Enhance Your Smile with Customized Shells
Transform your smile by addressing tooth size, shape, or color with veneers. We expertly place these thin shells over the front surfaces of teeth, resulting in a remarkable improvement in appearance and the ability to close small gaps. However, it’s crucial to consult with your prosthodontist to determine if veneers are the right solution for you. Keep in mind that this irreversible process involves the removal of a small amount of tooth enamel.
Crowns: Strengthen and Protect Your Teeth
Dental crowns, also known as caps, offer comprehensive coverage and reinforcement for damaged teeth. After a root canal treatment, or in cases of fractures, breaks, or severe misshapenness, dentists utilize crowns to cover the entire visible portion of a tooth. Our dental office provides a range of crown materials, including metal, porcelain fused to metal, or all-ceramic options, ensuring both durability and aesthetic appeal.
Fixed Bridges: A Reliable Solution for Missing Teeth
When you do not desire dental implants, fixed bridges offer an excellent alternative for replacing missing teeth. This procedure involves the use of healthy adjacent teeth to support artificial teeth. By placing crowns on the neighboring teeth and connecting them with a fixed bridge, we evenly distribute bite forces, which leads to the restoration and maintenance of your oral health following tooth loss.
Dentures: Restore Functionality and Appearance
Whether you need full dentures due to complete tooth loss or partial dentures to address missing teeth, our specialized dentures restore the structure, function, and appearance of your mouth. Crafted with precision in a dedicated dental laboratory based on your unique dental impression, our dentures offer long-lasting solutions that greatly benefit your overall oral health when properly maintained.
Fillings: Small but Essential Restorations
Even though fillings may seem small in size, they play a significant role in prosthodontics as they restore the structure and function of your mouth. Our prosthodontists utilize various types of fillings tailored to specific situations and concerns. For visible areas, we provide tooth-colored fillings that seamlessly blend with your natural teeth, ensuring a harmonious and aesthetically pleasing result.
Though every effort is made to maintain the health of one’s natural teeth, there are yet some instances where teeth are lost or must be removed due to extensive decay or injury. Where this is the case, some sort of replacement teeth are absolutely essentially in order to restore proper structure and function in the oral cavity.Learn more
You are probably familiar with dental fillings, which are used to restore the structure and function of teeth that have been damaged by injury or decay. However, sometimes teeth are too extensively damaged by injury or decay to be successfully restored by a dental filling. Learn more
These are used when only some of the individual’s natural teeth are missing, and are sometimes referred to as dental bridges. Replacement teeth are affixed to a gum-colored plastic base which can either be permanently attached to crowns on the natural teeth adjacent to the gap, in which case the dentures are not removable, or they can be temporarily attached to the crowns.Learn more
Comprehensive Oral Health Care
In addition to smile restoration, our prosthodontists offer a comprehensive range of services. They undergo training to perform oral cancer screenings, diagnose and treat sleep apnea, and address temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD). With their expertise, they handle challenging dental problems, establishing themselves as valuable allies in oral health.
