What is a Prosthodontist?
|
• | Dental Veneers: A dental veneer is a customized porcelain shell that will alter the facial appearance of a tooth. It can hide chips while improving the color and allow us to adjust the size and width to improve the look. |
• | Dental Crown: A dental crown is a cap designed to fit over and encase a natural tooth or dental implant. We use crowns to restore missing teeth or to protect severely damaged teeth. |
• | Dental Bridge: A dental bridge is used to restore a single or up to three missing teeth. A bridge consists of two crowns on either end, that will cover natural healthy teeth or tooth implants, with false teeth between. |
• | Partial Dentures or Full Dentures: A denture is used to replace multiple or even all of your teeth on an arch. Dentures today can be used in combination with dental implants for a permanent and secure hold. |
• | Dental Implants: A dental implant is not a replacement tooth, rather it is a replacement root that we can then use a prosthetic on to restore missing teeth. |
