In addition to classrooms, we attend lectures and seminars and work hands-on with real dental patients. We become well acquainted with the treatments for restoring damaged teeth, the procedures for extracting teeth, and how to effectively replace missing teeth. We learn all about, and use, the latest prosthodontic tools, technologies, and techniques, which then allow us to provide you with the high-quality treatment you need. While general dentists receive some training in certain types of dental restorations, we are experts in all restorative techniques and procedures.
