Dental Prosthodontics
Programs that implant man-made titanium fixtures that serve as a replacement for the root portion of a missing natural tooth. The dental implant is placed in the bone of the upper or lower jaw and functions as an anchor for the replacement tooth. After the bone has grown around the implant, implants can hold a crown, bridge or overdenture just like roots hold natural teeth in place. Implants provide additional support where teeth are missing without putting forces onto remaining natural teeth. They may be used to support the replacement of a single missing tooth or a complete functional set for individuals who have lost many or all of their teeth.
Programs that construct and fit sets of removable artificial teeth to replace an individual's missing natural teeth. Included are appliances that replace all or a portion of the natural teeth.
