What is a Prosthodontist?

Advanced Dental Care for Lasting Smiles

A prosthodontist is a specialist with advanced training in replacing and restoring teeth. The American Dental Association (ADA) recognizes prosthodontics as one of only nine specialties in the field of dentistry. After graduating dental school, prosthodontists complete three years of additional study in an ADA-accredited program. They are experts in rehabilitating smiles through comprehensive esthetic and restorative therapies, including dentures, partials, bridges, crowns, dental implants, porcelain veneers, and more.

Prosthodontists are considered “architects” because they evaluate smiles, envision the final outcome, then construct treatment plans to return oral comfort, function, and appearance. To provide the very best care, they may also collaborate with general dentists, specialists, and other healthcare professionals to resolve a patient’s dental concerns.

Dr. Steven Fuqua is an active member of the American College of Prosthodontists (ACP), and a well respected member of the dental community. He is often called upon to speak to dental groups because of his advanced skill and knowledge of modern prosthodontic techniques, and general dentists trust Dr. Fuqua and refer their patients to him for quality restorative care.
