What Is A Prosthodontist?
Huntsville, AL
 A prosthodontist is a dentist who has completed a three-year advanced training program in Prosthodontics, one of the twelve dental specialties recognized by the American Dental Association.
Prosthodontics is the dental specialty pertaining to the diagnosis, treatment planning, rehabilitation, and maintenance of oral function, comfort, appearance, and health of patients with clinical conditions associated with missing or deficient teeth and/or oral and maxillofacial tissues using biocompatible substitutes.
In other words, a prosthodontist is a dentist who treats complex conditions related to missing or extensively damaged teeth. A prosthodontist will create a treatment plan that addresses the source of any problems the patient may present with, treats the dental needs, and provides a maintenance protocol that helps extend the lifespan of said teeth or their artificial substitutes. In many cases, multidisciplinary care, together with other specialists or general dentists, creates the ultimate positive outcomes.
