Orthopedics Dentistry is a branch of dentistry that focuses on restoring missing or damaged teeth using prostheses, crowns, bridges, or implants.

Its main goal is to restore chewing, speech, and aesthetic functions, as well as maintain proper bite alignment and overall oral health.

Orthopedics can be used to replace a single tooth or multiple missing teeth, providing long-lasting results and improving the patient’s quality of life.

Frequently Asked Questions

You should visit a prosthodontist if you are missing one or more teeth, have damaged crowns, or experience difficulty chewing or speaking due to tooth misalignment. The specialist will help restore both the function and appearance of your teeth.

There are fixed restorations (such as crowns, bridges, and implant-supported prostheses) and removable ones (such as acrylic or metal dentures). The choice depends on your dental condition and personal preferences.

Even though dentures are artificial, they require the same care as natural teeth — daily cleaning, rinsing, and regular dental check-ups. Removable dentures should be taken out at night and kept in clean water.
