Description

What is prosthodontics? Prosthodontics is a dental specialty recognised by the Indian Dental Association. It pertains 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.

Simple pleasures - like smiling or going out to eat - become a source of stress or embarrassment. With the help of a prosthodontist, there are many options, if you have lost some or all of your teeth. Crowns, bridges, and full or partial dentures are just some of the procedures that can help you regain your smile and improve your appearance and self-confidence. Another option is dental implants, a more permanent solution that has improved greatly over the last ten years, thanks to the pioneering techniques of prosthodontists. Whether you need to replace one tooth or many, a prosthodontist will work with you through every step of dental implant treatment, from an initial consultation through follow-up care. Complex Care Management Prosthodontists are trained to manage the most complex dental restorations. From patients requiring rehabilitation after a traumatic injury to creating new smiles for those born with genetic facial deficits, prosthodontists have the special skills needed to restore smiles to the best they can be. Cosmetic / Esthetic Dentistry A healthy smile has a significant impact on self-esteem. If you are like many Indians and are unhappy about the "look" of your smile, you may want to consult a prosthodontist. With their advanced training, prosthodontists can improve your appearance by fixing broken, discoloured or misshapen teeth and associated structures. Some of the procedures that can improve your smile are: Placing complete ceramic aesthetic crowns or "caps" onto teeth Placing veneers onto teeth to conceal defects Using bonding technology on a tooth's surface to change its shape or to close unwanted gaps Bleaching discoloured teeth to brighten and whiten a smile.
