Prosthodontics

Prosthodontics is a specialized branch of dentistry focused on the restoration and replacement of damaged or missing teeth and oral structures. This discipline involves the use of crowns, bridges, dentures, implants, and other prosthetic devices to restore the form, function, and aesthetics of the mouth. Prosthodontists are skilled in designing and fitting these devices to improve both the appearance and function of the teeth, ensuring that patients can chew, speak, and smile with confidence.

​

Bridges:

A dental bridge is used to replace one or more missing teeth by anchoring to the adjacent teeth or implants. It "bridges" the gap left by missing teeth, restoring the function of your bite and improving your smile

​

Dentures:

Dentures are removable prosthetic devices designed to replace multiple missing teeth. They can be full (replacing all teeth) or partial (replacing only some teeth) and are made to look and function like natural teeth.

​

Dental Implants:

Dental implants are titanium posts surgically placed into the jawbone to replace missing tooth roots. Once the implant integrates with the bone, a crown or bridge is placed on top to restore the appearance and function of the missing tooth​​.

​

TMJ (Temporomandibular Joint) Therapy:

Prosthodontists also provide treatment for jaw joint disorders (TMJ), which can cause pain, clicking, and difficulty moving the jaw. Treatment options may include custom splints, bite adjustments, or other interventions to alleviate discomfort and improve jaw function.
