Why consult a prosthodontist?

A prosthodontist is a diagnostic and treatment-planning expert who deals commonly with complex dental problems.

A prosthodontist is a specialist in cosmetic, implant and restorative dentistry, who has spent an additional three years in full-time study advancing his knowledge, skill and ability.

A prosthodontist will often network in a team to achieve optimal long-term dental health. There needs to be close cooperation between the general dentist, periodontist, oral surgeon, orthodontist, as well as the highly skilled dental technicians in working with you the patient to achieve aesthetically pleasing long-term dental health.

Sound periodontal health is a pre-requisite for long-term success. Keep in mind that you, the patient, are the most important member of the team.

You owe it to yourself to enjoy and maintain good dental health.
