The American Dental Association recognizes nine dental specialties,
and the ADA does not include "cosmetic dentistry" as a specialty. A
prosthodontist is an ADA recognized dental specialist with extensive
training and experience in the restoration and replacement of teeth.
This background provides the prosthodontist with the skills and
understanding of the dynamics of a smile, the preservation of a
healthy mouth and creation of tooth replacements.

Serving as the "architect" of a dental treatment plan, prosthodontists
collaborate with general dentists, other dental specialists, as well
as other health
professionals to develop solutions for your dental concerns. Prosthodontists
offer services in state-of-the-art procedures and techniques in addition to
cosmetics such as: dental implants, complete and removable partial dentures,
complex care management involving multiple specialists, special needs of
geriatric patients, children born with cleft palate or missing teeth, TMD
(TMJ)-jaw joint problems, traumatic injuries, snoring and sleep disorders,
oral cancer reconstruction and continuing care. Other procedures include:
crowns, bridges, veneers, and inlays. Prosthodontists are exceptionally
skilled in "Creating Generations of Smiles". |
