SERVICES

The Department of Prosthodontics offers a comprehensive range of services to ensure the best possible care for our patients. Our dedicated team of dental professionals specializes in the following treatments.

Dentures and maxillofacial Prosthesis

Dentures are removable replacements for missing teeth and surrounding tissues. Complete dentures are used when all teeth are missing, while partial dentures are used when some natural teeth remain. Maxillofacial prosthesis are artificial replacement of missing facial structures. Dentures can restore chewing ability, improve speech, and enhance the appearance of the smile.

Fixed Partrial Denture

Dental bridges are used to close gaps caused by missing teeth. A bridge consists of a false tooth, called a pontic, which is held in place by the abutment teeth on either side of the gap. Typically, bridges are made from porcelain to match the natural teeth and provide aesthetic results.

Implants

Dental implants are surgical components that provide a foundation for dental prostheses such as crowns, bridges, or dentures. They are placed into the jawbone or skull and serve as artificial tooth roots. Implants offer a long-lasting solution for missing teeth, providing stability, functionality, and a natural appearance.

Veneers / Crowns

Veneers are thin shells placed on the front of teeth to improve their appearance by fixing issues like discoloration, chips, and gaps. They are custom-made, bonded to the teeth, and provide a long-lasting, natural-looking result.
