Definition
Programs that specialize in the esthetic restoration or replacement of teeth. Prosthodontic procedures include crowns, bridges, veneers, inlays, onlays and complete and partial dentures. Dental implants are the preferred method for replacing missing teeth, so many prosthodontic procedures are done with implants as the support instead of the natural teeth or gums. Prosthodontic care is provided by both general dentists and prosthodontic specialists called prosthodontists.
