Why Choose a Prosthodontist Over a Dentist?
Inexperience Can Put Your Oral Health at Risk
Dental work completed purely for the sake of aesthetics is bound to fail early. Many of our competitors do quick work that looks nice at first, but when it simply masks underlying dental problems, it won't hold up. In other cases, restorations may be placed sloppily or incorrectly, which can create more problems for your teeth and oral health. In the end, the restorations may not last long, become damaged, or even fall out.
A Specialist Can Preserve Your Smile for Life
When you choose the prosthodontists at our Ridgewood, NJ, office, you can rest assured that quality and patient satisfaction are our top priorities. We focus solely on producing the most durable and longest-lasting results. No matter how simple or complicated your care plan, our experts know how to build a strong smile. With proper at-home care and routine checkups, it is not uncommon for our work to last a lifetime.

Our Specialized Prosthodontic Services
The type of restoration you will need is specific to your individual case and will be discussed and planned in detail during your initial prosthodontic consultation at our Ridgewood, NJ, office. Some of the services we provide for damaged and missing teeth include:
A crown is a porcelain cap that is placed over a damaged tooth or following treatment for damage or decay. This preserves the tooth structure and restores the function and appearance of the tooth.
If you are missing several consecutive teeth, a bridge can fill the gap in your smile. Two crowns are attached to anchoring natural teeth to support the artificial teeth, called pontics.
If you are missing most or all of your teeth, dentures can address complete tooth loss, localized tooth loss, or multiple areas of tooth loss. We offer traditional and implant-supported dentures, including the All-on-4® method.
Dental implants are titanium posts that act as artificial tooth roots. Depending on your needs, crowns, dental bridges, or dentures can be firmly anchored to your jawbone using implants.
A veneer is a porcelain shell that fits over the front surface of a tooth to conceal cracks, chips, and stains and enhance the appearance of your smile. Veneers can be precisely color-matched to your natural teeth for seamless results.
During your initial consultation at our Ridgewood dental clinic, we can determine if your restorations should be held in place with implants or via traditional methods. With proper care, your dentures, crowns, veneers, or bridges can last 15 years or more. Be sure to maintain good oral hygiene and visit your dentist regularly for cleanings and exams.
Exploring Dental Implants The Ultimate Stability for Replacement Teeth
Dental implants can support a dental crown, a bridge, or even full dentures. From filling a gap in your smile to providing an entirely new set of teeth, implants can make your prosthodontic work supremely stable and functional.
