Dental Prosthetic Rehabilitation
Dental prosthetic rehabilitation is a specialized field of dentistry focused on restoring oral function, comfort, and aesthetics for patients with missing or deficient teeth and/or oral and maxillofacial tissues. This comprehensive approach involves the diagnosis, treatment planning, and maintenance of oral health using biocompatible substitutes such as dentures, dental implants, and other prosthetic devices.
