Prosthodontists specialize in replacing missing teeth and associated oral structures by determining the type of dental prostheses required, having customized dental prostheses manufactured, and fitting them in patients' mouths. They also treat temporomandibular disorders and various issues associated with damaged and problematic teeth.
