Why should I visit a prosthodontist?

Prosthodontics is a higher level of dental care than general dentistry and is the dental specialty devoted to restoring and replacing teeth. Prosthodontists specialize in the restoration and replacement of missing teeth and are specialists for veneers, crowns, bridges, dentures, complex reconstructions and dental implants.

What is the difference between an Endodontist and a Periodontist?

Endodontists are the specialists most commonly known for root canal procedures and should be seen if your dental pulp becomes diseased or injured. A periodontist is a specialist who focuses on your teeth’s supporting structures as well as the diseases and conditions that result in tooth loss.

When would I need an Oral Surgeon?

If you experience an injury to your face, jaws or the hard and soft tissues of your mouth, an oral and maxillofacial surgeon is recommended. Oral surgeons treat the anatomical area of the mouth, jaws, face, skull and associated structures. Oral surgeons can also diagnose and treat oral cysts, tumors, cleft palate, incorrect bites and temporomandibular (TMJ) disorders.

What does an Orthodontist do?

Orthodontists focus on the treatment of malocclusions (improper bites) and crooked teeth. They use braces, removable appliances and aligner trays to move teeth and redirect jaw growth.
