What Is Prosthodontics?

Prosthodontics is a specialized branch of dental medicine focused on restorative dentistry to replace missing teeth and restore damaged oral structures. This advanced dental specialty encompasses comprehensive treatments designed to rehabilitate oral function, comfort, appearance, and health. Practitioners complete advanced training beyond general dentistry, with an additional three years of specialized education in an American Dental Association (ADA) accredited graduate program.

Think of prosthodontics as the architectural field of restorative care – it involves creating comprehensive treatment plans that address both aesthetic concerns and functional issues. While general dentists can address basic restorative needs, prosthodontics handles the most complex cases requiring extensive reconstruction or those involving multiple specialty areas. This field excels in implant dentistry, crowns, bridges, dentures, and treatments for temporomandibular joint disorders (TMJ).

At SmileWorks NYC, our prosthodontic expertise allows us to address even the most challenging dental situations with precision, creating beautiful smiles that complement your facial features and restore proper function.

Our Prosthodontic Services

Dental Implants

Our Manhattan team specializes in the planning, placement, and restoration of dental implants – from single tooth replacements to full-arch restorations. We utilize 3D imaging and digital planning to precisely position each implant for optimal aesthetics and function. The titanium implant post integrates with your jawbone, providing stability while preventing bone loss that typically occurs after tooth extraction. Our implant restorations are custom-designed to match your natural appearance in color, shape, and size, creating a seamless result that can last a lifetime with proper care.

Crowns & Bridges

When damage occurs but teeth are not lost, our expertise shines through precision crown work. Using advanced digital scanning and custom shade-matching, we create dental crowns that protect weakened teeth while perfectly blending with your smile. For those who need to replace missing teeth, our dental bridges provide a non-surgical alternative to implants, supported by adjacent structures to fill gaps. We use the highest quality porcelain and zirconia materials recommended by the American College of Prosthodontists to ensure your restorations are both durable and aesthetically pleasing.

At SmileWorks NYC, prosthodontic care is led by Dr. Jin Sup Shin. Dr. Shin combines technical precision with an artistic eye, ensuring that each restoration not only functions perfectly but also enhances the patient’s overall appearance.

As a clinical assistant professor at New York University College of Dentistry and member of the York Academy, Dr. Shin brings the latest techniques and materials to our Manhattan practice. Her approach begins with thorough diagnostics using 3D imaging and digital scanning, followed by detailed treatment planning that addresses both immediate concerns and long-term dental health, including prevention of gum disease.

Our entire staff works cohesively to provide comprehensive care, from initial consultation through treatment and long-term maintenance. Each team member is specially trained in prosthodontic needs, understanding the emotional impact of tooth loss or damage from past trauma.
