Why See a Prosthodontist in Sunnyvale CA?
Replacing Missing Teeth and Improving Your Smile
Prosthodontics in Sunnyvale CA is one of the nine dental specialties recognized by
the American Dental Association (ADA). Prosthodontists specialize in
the diagnosis, restoration, and replacement of missing teeth.
Prosthodontists can restore oral function through the placement of
restorations or prostheses (dentures, crowns, implants, etc.).
Extensive training and experience give prosthodontists a unique
understanding of restoring the dynamics of a smile and healthy mouth
with the creation of tooth prostheses. Becoming a prosthodontist
requires an additional three years of specialty training after
obtaining a DMD (Doctor of Dental Medicine) or DDS (Doctor of Dental
Surgery) degree. Dr. Richard Lee received a certificate in Advanced
Postgraduate Studies in Prosthodontics and Surgical Fellowship on
Implant Dentistry at NYU.
