Prosthodontists are experts in their field. With an additional three years of training, they have a specialised skill set to treat, plan, diagnose and manage intricate dental problems.
From 3D X-rays to the latest in intra-oral scanning and 3D printing, we use state-of-the-art technology to diagnose and treat various conditions effectively and efficiently.
Our mission is to listen to you, understand your needs, and present all your treatment options. We will guide you through the treatment planning process so you can choose the right one for you.
Prosthodontics is a formally recognised specialist branch of dentistry dedicated to the
design, manufacture, and fitting of artificial replacements for teeth and other parts of the
mouth. Common prosthodontic treatments include dentures, dental implants, crowns and
bridges. Once they have graduated from dental school, a prosthodontist receives three extra
years of training in their chosen field.
Prosthodontists are trained in the field of crown and bridgework, veneers, implant
reconstruction, denture work, occlusion, temporomandibular joint function and complex
full-mouth oral rehabilitation.
All dentists are trained in making crowns, bridges, and partial and complete dentures, so
why would you need to see a prosthodontist? Prosthodontists are experts in their field. With
an additional three years of training, they are much more equipped than your regular dentist
to replace anything in your mouth.
Prosthodontists have a specialised skill set to treat, plan, diagnose and manage intricate
dental problems. They frequently work in a multi-disciplinary environment with other
specialists and are skilled in biomaterials, biomechanics, function and aesthetics.
Patients are often referred to us by their general dental practitioner. A referral gives us a much better understanding of your oral history and any problems you’ve had previously, including how they were managed. Alongside your history, be sure to bring in any past x-rays, exam results or other relevant material for your prosthodontist to discuss.
At Mornington Prosthodontics, we have invested in the highest quality equipment to provide
our patients with the most up-to-date treatment options. From 3D X-rays to the latest in
intra-oral scanning and 3D printing, Dr David Laskey uses state-of-the-art technology to
diagnose and treat various conditions effectively and efficiently.
Utilising the latest technology means we can offer our patients the best of both traditional
and digital technologies, ensuring you receive the optimal treatment and techniques
customised to your individual needs.
After your initial consultation, you will receive a detailed treatment plan and quote tailored to your specific needs. If further steps are required in the diagnostic and treatment planning process, Dr Laskey will explain each stage and answer any questions you may have. We offer all our patients a second no-fee consultation if you have any questions about their proposed treatment options.
