Prosthodontics is the field of dentistry that relates to rebuilding natural teeth and restoring missing teeth with prosthetic replacements to achieve the best possible functional and aesthetic outcome. This can range from a routine single crown for a damaged tooth or it could involve more complex procedures, such as full mouth reconstruction of damaged or mutilated dentitions.
Treatments falling under the care are :
- Crown and Bridge work
- Aesthetic / Cosmetic Dentistry e.g. tooth whitening, veneers, etc
- Implant Dentistry
- Partial and Complete Dentures
- Tooth Wear
- Occlusal Deficiencies and/or Teeth Disorders
- TMJ ( Joint ) Problems
- Restoration of damaged dentitions with partial or full mouth reconstruction
- Complex cases involving multi-disciplinary care
