Research has shown that adults lose an average of four teeth by the time they are between 50 and 64 years old, causing problems such as reduced self-esteem, trouble eating, and issues pronunciating words. Studies have tied tooth loss to everything from malnutrition to problems climbing the corporate ladder, which is why most adults could use the help of our Westchester prosthodontist, Dr. Steven A. Brisman.
The word “Prosthodontist” literally means a dentist who specializes with the replacement of teeth. Prosthodontics is one of only nine specialties recognized by the American Dental Association, which revolves around the art and science of restoring the form and function of teeth. The study of Prosthodontics involves the diagnosis and rehabilitation of complex oral disorders and diseases, along with focusing on patient comfort, appearance, and health. Our Westchester Prosthodontists specialize in treating patients with missing teeth or damaged oral tissues, as well as treatment planning and preventive care.
Prosthodontists specialize in replacing lost teeth, offering partial dentures, full dentures, and even implant-supported dentures to correct a smile.
Our Westchester Prosthodontists are also trained in dental implants from planning, placement, as well as maintenance after the procedure is complete.
If you were born with maxillofacial problems such as cleft palate, missing teeth, or a misshapen jaw, Prosthodontists can design prostheses to help you to talk and chew normally.
Although cosmetic dentistry isn’t a specialty recognized by the American Dental Association, Prosthodontists are more prepared than any other dental specialist to handle cosmetic dental issues. In addition to offering dental bonding and teeth whitening, Prosthodontists can also help you with gum contouring, tooth reshaping, and even crown lengthening.
When a patient has an oral condition severe enough that it requires multiple specialists, Prosthodontists are often referred to and will assit in overseeing treatment. Prosthodontists frequently handle complex care management for problems due to trauma or cancer, so that the specialists can correct oral tissues, teeth, and overall cosmetic appearance.
Since Prosthodontists have so much training regarding the oral and maxillofacial anatomy, they can also treat problems like pain or clicking with the temporomandibular joint on your jaw.
Prosthodontists are also called upon to create customized mouth guards for people who have sleep problems due to sleep apnea.
In order to become a Prosthodontist, dentists have to complete three additional years of in-depth study at an ADA accredited prosthodontic graduate program in order to become a specialist in their field. This extra training helps Prosthodontists to hone their technical and artistic abilities in order to provide patients with a superior level of care. For this reason, Prosthodontists are regularly considered leaders of dental teams, helping other dental professionals to find solutions to complex dental issues. Because they are trained in all general, restorative, preventive, cosmetic, and orthotic dental techniques, Prosthodontists are uniquely trained to handle complex oral restorations, saving patients time and money in the long run.
The goal of prosthodontics is to restore form and function to the smile, helping patients to maintain their oral health while enjoying beautiful teeth. By carefully examining patients and working closely with the referring dentist, Westchester Prosthodontists can create a customized treatment plan for each patient, helping them to reach their dental goals. For example, a prosthodontist may recommend receiving dental implants to replace teeth that have been damaged through prior oral decay, and other corrective prostheses such as dental crowns to restore proper bite force to help a patient to live a better life. Prosthodontists are also experts is the field of cosmetic dentistry, offering advanced services like veneers, cosmetic bonding, onlays, and tooth whitening. Whatever your dental needs may be, our Scarsdale Prosthodontists can help you to enjoy the smile of your dreams.
