the cavazos care way
Prosthodontics is a recognized dental specialty focused on the diagnosis, treatment planning, rehabilitation, and maintenance of the oral function, comfort, appearance, and health of patients with clinical conditions associated with missing or deficient teeth and/or oral and maxillofacial tissues.
What is prosthodontics?
Our Comprehensive Prosthodontic Solutions in Houston
We offer state-of-the-art prosthetic treatments tailored to your unique needs
- Complete Dentures: For replacing all teeth in an upper or lower arch.
- Partial Dentures: For replacing a few missing teeth while preserving remaining natural teeth.
- Dental Implants: Small titanium posts surgically placed into the jawbone to act as artificial tooth roots. (For the surgical placement, please see our Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery page.)
- Implant-Supported Crowns & Bridges: Individual crowns or multi-tooth bridges securely attached to dental implants for unparalleled stability.
- Implant-Supported Dentures (e.g., All-on-4® / All-on-6): Revolutionize your dentures with implant support. These prosthetics snap onto or are permanently affixed to a few strategically placed implants, eliminating slippage and enhancing comfort and chewing power.
For patients with extensive tooth damage, decay, or widespread tooth loss, a full mouth reconstruction offers a comprehensive solution. This involves a personalized, multi-disciplinary treatment plan that combines various restorative and cosmetic procedures (e.g., crowns, veneers, implants, root canals) to rebuild your entire smile, restoring both function and aesthetics.
While also a part of restorative dentistry, crowns and bridges are key prosthodontic tools for individual tooth restoration and replacing missing teeth in conjunction with natural teeth or implants.

questions + Answers
Frequently Asked Questions About Prosthodontics in Houston
Implant-supported dentures offer significantly greater stability, comfort, and chewing efficiency compared to traditional dentures. They eliminate slippage, improve speech, and help preserve jawbone density.
Traditional dentures typically last 5-10 years before needing to be relined or replaced due to changes in your mouth. Implant-supported prosthetics, with proper care, can last much longer.
If you have multiple missing or severely damaged teeth, widespread decay, gum disease, or significant bite problems, you may be a candidate. A comprehensive evaluation at our Houston office is necessary to determine the best approach.
The process typically involves a surgical phase (implant placement into the jawbone, usually by an oral surgeon) and a restorative phase (attaching your new crown, bridge, or denture to the implant). The overall timeline varies per individual.
