Comprehensive Tooth Replacement Solutions
Prosthodontics at Colfax Dental
When you’re missing one or more teeth, it affects far more than just your appearance. Tooth loss can impact your ability to eat comfortably, speak clearly, and smile with confidence. At Colfax Dental, we offer a full range of prosthodontic treatments designed to restore both the function and beauty of your smile. Dr. John Turner combines advanced techniques with personalized care to help you find the right solution for your unique needs.
Prosthodontics is the dental specialty focused on replacing missing teeth and restoring oral function. Whether you’ve lost a single tooth or need full-arch restoration, our team has the expertise and technology to deliver results that look natural, feel comfortable, and last for years to come.
Our Prosthodontic Treatment Options
At Colfax Dental, we’re proud to offer a comprehensive selection of prosthodontic treatments tailored to meet diverse patient needs:
- Dental Implants: Dental implants are titanium posts surgically placed into the jawbone to serve as artificial tooth roots. They provide a stable foundation for replacement teeth and help preserve bone density. As the provider of dental implants Colfax patients trust, we use advanced imaging and precise placement techniques to ensure optimal results. Dental implants can support single crowns, bridges, or even full dentures, making them one of the most versatile prosthodontic treatments available.
- Full and Partial Dentures: Traditional dentures remain a reliable and cost-effective solution for tooth replacement. Full dentures replace an entire arch of teeth, while partial dentures fill in gaps when some natural teeth remain. Our dentures are custom-crafted to fit comfortably and blend naturally with your facial features. We take detailed impressions and use color-matching technology to create dentures that restore both function and aesthetics.
- Flippers and Removable Partial Dentures: For patients seeking a temporary or more affordable option, flippers and removable partial dentures offer flexibility and convenience. These lightweight appliances can be removed for cleaning and are ideal for patients who are not yet ready for permanent prosthodontic treatments or who need an immediate cosmetic solution following tooth extraction.
- Hybrid Prosthesis (All-on-Four and All-on-Six): Hybrid prostheses combine the stability of dental implants with the full-arch coverage of dentures. The All-on-Four and All-on-Six techniques use four or six strategically placed implants to support a full arch of replacement teeth. This approach is perfect for patients who want the security of implants without the need for individual implants for every missing tooth. As a leading provider of dental implants Colfax relies on, we’re experienced in delivering these life-changing prosthodontic treatments.
- Implant Restoration: Once your dental implants have integrated with the jawbone, they need to be restored with crowns, bridges, or dentures. Our implant restoration services ensure that your final prosthetic not only fits perfectly but also matches the color, shape, and function of your natural teeth. We use high-quality materials and precision techniques to create restorations that are both beautiful and durable.
- Implant-Retained Dentures and Partials: For patients who want more stability than traditional dentures but prefer a removable option, implant-retained dentures and partials are an excellent choice. These prosthetics snap securely onto dental implants, preventing slipping and providing a more natural bite force. They offer the convenience of removal for cleaning while delivering the confidence of a fixed restoration.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long do dental implants last?
With proper care and regular dental visits, dental implants can last a lifetime. The crown or prosthetic on top may need replacement over time, but the implant itself is designed to be a permanent solution.
Are prosthodontic treatments painful?
Most prosthodontic treatments involve minimal discomfort. Procedures like implant placement are performed under local anesthesia, and we offer options to keep you comfortable throughout your treatment.
How do I care for implant-retained dentures?
Implant-retained dentures should be removed daily for cleaning, just like traditional dentures. You’ll also need to clean around the implant attachments to maintain healthy gums.
Can I get dental implants if I have bone loss?
In many cases, yes. Dr. Turner can evaluate your bone density and may recommend bone grafting if needed to support successful implant placement.
