Prosthodontics
Amit Punj, DMD, MCR, FACP
Prosthodontics is one of the twelve recognized specialties in dentistry that involves replacing teeth and gums with artificial materials and improving smiles. This can involve a single tooth restoration to a full mouth rehabilitation. While general dentists can perform some, or most of these treatments, prosthodontists are specialists who have received rigorous, advanced training dedicated to this type of care. Our team is comprised of experts who specialize in bridges, dentures, crowns, and veneers (laminates) and provide oral prostheses to correct defects caused by surgery, trauma, oral disease, and congenital deformities.
