Frequently Asked Questions
If you are looking for a doctor to help with complex cosmetic or restorative dental services, consider visiting a prosthodontist for help. While a general dentist provides excellent care for some cosmetic and restorative treatments, prosthodontists have at least three years of advanced training beyond dental school that enables them to help patients who have cases that require more advanced treatment.
To answer this question, let’s look at the meaning of the word prosthodontist. “Prostho” comes from the Latin root that means to add to or replace; “dentist” derives from the Greek word for tooth, “odous”. Hence, a prosthodontist is the recognized expert in the field of dentistry for replacing anything in the mouth.
Prosthodontists can replace a single missing tooth or even all the teeth, as well mas gum tissue in your mouth.
During their additional education, prosthodontists are trained to address the problems that result from missing teeth and jaw structure. They are skilled at providing dental implants, crown and bridge, full and partial dentures. With expertise and experience, prosthodontists are like architects and artists creating beautiful and healthy smiles.
