Learning More About Prosthodontists in Fort Lauderdale.
Whether you are a new patient or have been with us for
a while, you may not completely understand what a Prosthodontist
is.
Prosthodontists are experts in the restoration and
replacement of teeth. They make smiles look beautiful
and function the way they should. After completing
four years of dental school, Prosthodontists receive
an extra three years of specialized training
in an American Dental Association (ADA) accredited
graduate program.
Prosthodontics is one of the nine dental specialties
recognized by the ADA.
Many like to think of Prosthodontists as the "quarterback"
of a dental treatment plan. They regularly lead teams
of general dentists, specialists and other health
professionals to develop solutions to your dental
needs.
Did you know that some dentists perform reconstructive
dental work after just a weekend course on a procedure?
That may be okay, but you should know that prosthodontists
receive an extra three years of intense, formal training
beyond regular school.

work, you should do research before making a decision
in order to ensure proper care. As ADA recognized
