Prosthodontics is a dental specialty that focuses on the restoration and replacement of missing or damaged teeth. Prosthodontists are specialists in the design, manufacture, and fitting of artificial replacements for teeth and other parts of the oral and facial structures. Their goal is to restore both the function and aesthetics of a patient's mouth.
Key Aspects of Prosthodontics
Dental Prosthetics: Prosthodontists create and place various dental prosthetics, including crowns, bridges, dentures, and dental implants.
Full Mouth Rehabilitation: Prosthodontists are involved in comprehensive treatment plans for patients with extensive dental needs.
Cosmetic Dentistry: They enhance the aesthetic appearance of a patient's smile through restorative procedures.
Dental Implants: Prosthodontists are skilled in the placement and restoration of dental implants.
Treatment Planning: They work closely with other dental specialists to develop comprehensive treatment plans for patients.
While prosthodontists specialize in advanced prosthodontic procedures, it's important to note that general dentists are also trained to provide basic prosthodontic services. General dentists can offer dental prosthetics such as crowns, bridges, and dentures. They may also handle straightforward cases of dental implants and contribute to treatment planning.
If you have specific prosthodontic needs, your general dentist can assess your situation and may refer you to a prosthodontist for specialized care if necessary.
If you have concerns about missing or damaged teeth, or if you're interested in improving the aesthetic appearance of your smile, call Blooming Smiles Dental today at 613-215-0550.
