What is a prosthodontist?
A prosthodontist is a dental specialist with three years of post-graduate training that focuses on the restoration and/or replacement of missing or damaged teeth. The teeth might be damaged or missing because of decay, infection, accidental trauma, or any number of oral conditions. Prosthodontists commonly replace missing or damaged teeth with bridges, dentures, or dental implants. They also provide cosmetic restorations such as crowns or veneers. This specialty training provides an additional level of expertise beyond the average general dentist when complicated treatment is required.
