You shouldn’t have to understand prosthodontic terminology before you know where to click. Find the concern that sounds most like yours and see the treatments a specialist may consider.
The right option depends on how many teeth are missing, the condition of surrounding teeth and bone, comfort, function, maintenance and your individual goals.
When wear affects many teeth, the problem can involve appearance, bite and chewing together. Treatment may range from local restoration to a comprehensive rehabilitation.
Colour, shape, spacing and damaged teeth can often be improved in several ways. A specialist assessment helps choose a conservative and appropriate option.
Conventional dentures remain an important treatment option. In suitable cases, implants may also be used to improve retention and stability.
Jaw pain, headaches, clicking and grinding can arise from different factors. The practice’s existing approach emphasises assessment before selecting an appliance.
Congenital defects, cleft-palate/obturator needs, major tooth loss and other reconstructive problems can require advanced prosthodontic planning and collaboration with other specialists.
