Prosthodontics is a dental specialty that focuses on the restoration and replacement of missing or damaged teeth. Prosthodontists are specialists in the design, manufacture, and fitting of artificial replacements for teeth and other parts of the oral and facial structures. Their goal is to restore both the function and aesthetics of a patient's mouth.
While prosthodontists specialize in advanced prosthodontic procedures, it's important to note that general dentists are also trained to provide basic prosthodontic services. General dentists can offer dental prosthetics such as crowns, bridges, and dentures. They may also handle straightforward cases of dental implants and contribute to treatment planning.
If you have specific prosthodontic needs, your general dentist can assess your situation and may refer you to a prosthodontist for specialized care if necessary.
