Prosthodontics and Full Mouth Reconstruction

Prosthodontics, also known as dental prosthetics or prosthetic dentistry, is one of nine dental specialties recognized by the American Dental Association, Royal College of Dentists of Canada, and Royal Australasian College of Dental Surgeons.

Prosthodontics is the dental specialty pertaining to the diagnosis, treatment planning, rehabilitation and maintenance of the oral function, comfort, appearance and health of patients with clinical conditions associated with missing or deficient teeth and/or oral and maxillofacial tissues using biocompatible substitutes.

Due to extensive training, prosthodontists are required to treat complex cases, full-mouth rehabilitation, TMJ related disorders, congenital disorders, and sleep apnea by planning and fabricating various prostheses.
