Prosthodontics
Prosthodontics is the area of dentistry focused on restoring and replacing teeth. Whether a tooth is damaged, worn or missing, the right restoration can bring back comfortable chewing, clear speech and a confident smile.
Restoration and Replacement Options
- Crowns (caps) to cover and protect damaged teeth
- Dental implants to replace missing teeth with a permanent, natural-looking solution
- Dentures and partial dentures to replace several or all teeth
- Bridges to fill the gap left by one or more missing teeth
Why Replacing Missing Teeth Matters
A missing tooth affects more than your appearance. Nearby teeth can drift into the gap, your bite can change, and the jawbone can shrink over time. Replacing teeth helps protect the rest of your smile and makes eating and speaking easier.
Your dentist will review your options and help you choose the restoration that best fits your needs, health and budget.
