These devices are used to address issues such as tooth loss, decay, and damage, and can significantly enhance your ability to eat, speak, and smile with confidence. Our Prosthodontic Services
Dental Implants:
Single Tooth Implants: A durable and natural-looking solution for replacing individual missing teeth. Implants are surgically placed in the jawbone and topped with a custom crown.
Implant Bridges: Used to replace multiple missing teeth, implant bridges consist of one or more artificial teeth supported by dental implants, providing a stable and functional restoration.
Implant Dentures: For patients with extensive tooth loss, implant-supported dentures offer improved stability and comfort compared to traditional removable dentures.
Crowns:
Porcelain Crowns: Custom-made crowns that cover and protect damaged or weakened teeth while blending seamlessly with your natural teeth.
Metal Crowns: Durable crowns made from metal alloys, ideal for back teeth that require extra strength and durability.
Bridges:
Traditional Bridges: A fixed restoration that replaces one or more missing teeth by anchoring to adjacent healthy teeth.
Maryland Bridges: A less invasive option that uses metal or ceramic wings to attach to the back of adjacent teeth, preserving more natural tooth structure.
Dentures:
Complete Dentures: Designed to replace an entire arch of missing teeth, complete dentures are custom-made to fit comfortably and function effectively.
Partial Dentures: Used when some natural teeth remain, partial dentures fill in gaps and restore function and appearance.
