Prosthodontics and Implantology

Prosthodontics and Implantology is a specialized branch of dentistry focused on the restoration and replacement of missing or damaged teeth to improve function, Esthetics, and oral health. Prosthodontics involves the design and fabrication of crowns, bridges, dentures, veneers, and full-mouth rehabilitations, ensuring optimal fit, comfort, and appearance. Implantology, a rapidly advancing subfield, centers on the use of dental implants titanium or ceramic posts surgically placed into the jawbone to support prosthetic restorations, offering a durable and natural-feeling solution for tooth loss. Together, these disciplines aim to restore not only oral function but also facial harmony, speech, and patient confidence. Recent innovations such as digital smile design, 3D imaging, CAD/CAM technology, and guided implant surgery have transformed how prosthodontics and implant treatments are planned and delivered. These tools allow for increased precision, faster turnaround times, and highly personalized prosthetics tailored to each patient’s anatomy and Esthetic goals.
