About Key Prosthodontics

A Prosthodontist is a dental specialist focused on the field of prosthodontics. Prosthodontics is a branch and specialty of dentistry that deals with the diagnosis, treatment planning, restoration, and maintenance of the oral function, comfort, appearance, and health of your teeth.

Prosthodontists must complete a rigorous advanced postdoctoral three-year educational program after dental school and are recognized in Canada through specialty examination with the Royal College of Dentists in Canada. Additional training for Prosthodontists is earned through an accredited Hospital or University-based program. Training is focused on Prosthetic Dentistry through comprehensive reviews of the Dental literature, in-depth review of Dental materials, Specialty focused lectures, advanced and complex treatment planning, clinical treatment of patients, and laboratory experience in fabricating Prosthetic Dental restorations.
