Why is a prosthodontist the better choice for my dental treatment?
In addition to having completed dental school, prosthodontists complete an additional three-year residency at a hospital or university for intensive training on oral rehabilitation. They’re well versed in handling challenging procedures that a regular dentist might not feel comfortable completing.
Our prosthodontists’ advanced training and expert knowledge will be sure to gain your confidence. If there’s anyone you can trust with your smile, it’s Drs Oettinger, Sulik, and Cook.
