dental clinic specializing in
Prosthodontics. Prosthodontics is a recognized dental specialty that pertains to the diagnosis, treatment planning, rehabilitation, and maintenance of the oral function, comfort, appearance, and health of patients with clinical conditions associated with missing or deficient teeth and/or oral and maxillofacial tissues.
Prosthodontists, the specialists at Prodontics, undergo extensive training beyond general dental school, typically an additional three or more years of advanced education in an accredited prosthodontic graduate program. This specialized training equips them with expertise in a wide range of complex dental procedures.
At Prodontics, patients can expect a focus on restoring and replacing teeth. Their services likely include, but are not limited to:
dental implants: Replacing missing tooth roots with titanium posts that support artificial teeth, offering a stable and natural-looking solution.
Dental
crowns: Custom-made caps that cover damaged or weakened teeth, restoring their shape, size, strength, and appearance.
Dental
bridges: Fixed prosthetic devices used to bridge the gap created by one or more missing teeth, anchored to natural teeth or implants.
dentures (Complete and Partial): Removable appliances that replace missing teeth and surrounding tissues, designed to look and function like natural teeth.
veneers: Thin, custom-made shells of tooth-colored materials designed to cover the front surface of teeth to improve their appearance.
full mouth reconstruction/Rehabilitation: Comprehensive treatment plans for patients with extensive dental issues, often involving a combination of the above procedures to restore overall
oral health and function.
TMJ/TMD Treatment: Addressing issues related to the temporomandibular joint, which connects the jawbone to the skull.
Maxillofacial Prosthetics: In some cases, prosthodontists also work on more complex issues involving the reconstruction of oral and facial structures after trauma, disease (like oral cancer), or congenital defects.
Prodontics aims to provide functional, long-lasting, and aesthetically pleasing results, often working in collaboration with other dental specialists to ensure comprehensive patient care.
