If you have never heard of a prosthodontist you are not alone!
Prosthodontics is one of nine dental specialties recognized by the American Dental Association. We specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of complex dental and facial problems that involve restoring or replacing missing teeth and associated structures. Our treatments can include crowns and bridges, dental implant restorations, dentures, and cosmetic dental procedures.
Prosthodontists are uniquely qualified through their 3-4 years of formal training beyond dental school to assess your dental needs and help you determine the best treatment options for your specific situation. Your treatment may include the care of other dental specialists and we utilize the appropriate dental technologies to provide high quality care in a comfortable environment. We also will work along with your general dentist and other dental specialists help you maintain your new smile into the future.
We provide dental implant restorations in Plymouth, Minnesota (the prosthetic attached to the implant, such as a crown, bridge or denture), full and partial dentures, crowns, bridges, fixed prosthetics, as well as full mouth restorations. We are also the specialists in Plymouth to see when you’re considering cosmetic dentistry.
Millions of people in the U.S. have lost at least one tooth. If you’re one of them, you may be considering the surgical procedure of dental implants but are unsure whether implants are right for you. Here, we’ll help to steer you toward an informed decision on whether you’re a good dental implant candidate.
In fact, most people are good candidates for dental implants, which can replace one tooth, several teeth or all your teeth. Implants can be used to support a single crown, a full set of dentures or a dental bridge.
At Metropolitan Prosthodontics we have a wide variety of options when it comes to replacing missing teeth. After your implants have been placed, we offer several options to restore your smile.
Since dental implants are only the artificial “roots” that set into your mouth, choosing the right type of implant restoration is essential to helping you achieve your long-term and immediate oral health goals.
