Prosthodontist in Kolkata

Restoring teeth is about more than filling a space. Prosthodontic planning brings appearance, chewing, comfort, and the way the teeth meet into one conversation.

01

A specialty focused on restoration

Prosthodontics concerns restoring damaged teeth and replacing missing teeth. Treatment can involve crowns, bridges, dentures, implant-supported restorations, or a coordinated plan across several areas of the mouth. Dr. Tanmay Popat is a Maxillofacial Prosthodontist and Implantologist and a founder of Shauryaa Dental. His qualifications are BDS, MDS, FICOI, FAAMP.

02

When a specialist discussion can help

You may want to discuss several missing teeth, repeated problems with existing restorations, an uncomfortable denture, or a complex change in your bite. An assessment also gives you space to understand different replacement options before making a decision. Describe what is difficult in daily life, whether that is eating, speaking, cleaning, or confidence in your smile.

03

Crowns, bridges, and dentures

A crown restores a tooth; a bridge replaces a gap using supporting teeth or implants; a denture replaces missing teeth with a removable restoration. These are different approaches, not a ranking from best to worst. The condition of remaining teeth, your preferences, and the practicalities of maintenance all belong in the discussion. The practice's listed services include crown and bridge prosthodontics, complete and partial dentures, and implant-supported overdentures.

04

Planning for everyday use

Bring information about earlier dental treatment, including available reports and any current dentures. Ask which teeth can be retained, why a particular restoration is recommended, and what alternatives are available. Request clarity on the number of visits, temporary restorations if needed, and the costs of each stage. A plan should also explain how the restoration will be cleaned and reviewed over time.

Your questions, considered.

Does a prosthodontic consultation mean I need implants?

No. Prosthodontic care includes several ways to restore and replace teeth. Implants are one option; the assessment should explain suitable alternatives.

Can I discuss replacing an existing crown or denture?

Yes. Bring the restoration if removable and any available treatment records. The dentist will need to assess its fit, condition, and the supporting teeth or tissues.
