What a prosthodontist does
A prosthodontist restores damaged teeth and replaces missing ones. They plan complex cases where many teeth, the bite and appearance all have to work together.
Treatments
- Crowns and bridges
- Full and partial dentures
- Crowns, bridges and dentures fixed to implants
- Veneers
- Full-mouth reconstruction
Training and credentials
After dental school, a prosthodontist completes an accredited residency in prosthodontics, usually three years. Prosthodontists listed here declared the specialty in the federal provider registry and hold a current California dental license.
General dentists place most single crowns and simple bridges. See a prosthodontist when several teeth need rebuilding, dentures do not fit, or implants will carry a full set of teeth.
