What is prosthodontics? Have you been referred to this branch of dentistry and need to know what to expect? If you are wondering and need to know the ABC’s of prosthodontics, you’ve come to the right place. A prosthodontist can provide many services but it all boils down to building your confidence through a bright and beaming smile.
Additional Training in Prosthodontics
A prosthodontist doesn’t just attend a weekend seminar to learn how to perform a new procedure, then arrive at the office on Monday ready to go. Prosthodontics is such a wide-ranging specialty that an additional three years of education after dental school is required. However, once considered a specialist in prosthodontics, these specialized dentists can do everything from bridges and implants to diagnosing TMJ or obstructive sleep apnea.
Beautiful Smile
Whether your smile is not what you’d like it to be because of trauma or genetics, you can fix your smile with a dentist who specializes in prosthodontics. A prosthodontist can lay out a plan of treatment that will show you what will be done and in what order by your team, so you end up with the smile of your dreams.
Complex Treatments
