Prosthodontics
Are you struggling with missing or damaged teeth? Do you want to improve the appearance and function of your smile? Prosthodontics could be your answer. This specialized field of dentistry focuses on restoring and replacing teeth, giving you a beautiful and functional smile. Missing teeth, damaged teeth, and jaw misalignment are just a few of the common problems that can be addressed with prosthodontics. At Herzog Dental, we offer both general prosthodontics and maxillofacial prosthetics with Dr. John Herzog to restore your smile and improve your overall oral health.
General Prosthodontics
For patients struggling with failing dentition or missing several teeth, general Prosthodontics care can be a life-changer. Unlike many corporate dental chains that offer a one-size-fits-all treatment solution, Dr. Herzog takes pride in tailoring her treatments to address the unique needs of each patient.
At Herzog Dental, we believe in a holistic approach to dental care. We take the time to discuss your timeline, concerns, comfort level, objectives, and budget. Based on these conversations, we collaboratively develop a plan of action. Ultimately, our goal is the preservation of your healthy smile.
Maxillofacial Prosthetics
Maxillofacial Prosthetics is a specialized field that extends beyond teeth. It caters to patients missing soft tissue and/or bone due to congenital defects such as cleft lip or palate, or acquired defects resulting from cancer or trauma like gunshot wounds or motor vehicle accidents.
Maxillofacial prosthodontists like Dr. Herzog work in close coordination with a myriad of other specialists, including ENTs, plastic surgeons, radiation oncologists, medical oncologists, and speech and language pathologists. This collaborative approach ensures the development of unique, comprehensive solutions tailored to each patient’s needs.
Navigating this emotional journey can feel overwhelming, so Dr. Herzog helps to create a nurturing environment to make the treatment process as comfortable as possible for both patients and their loved ones.
