Prosthodontics, put simply addresses what may be lacking or completely missing in the mouth. This can be fairly straightforward, such as a couple of missing or worn teeth or more complex cases, with severe wear in all teeth or multiple or completely missing teeth.

All of these problems can obviously affect an individual’s ability to function comfortably and impact their appearance which in turn can negatively influence an individual’s well-being and confidence.
