I found a very Unique Kind of Dental Practice Located in Buford, Georgia

When you visit the Buford cosmetic dentist office, you will discover something unusual - the smile expert Dr. Ashley P. Curington is much more than a typical general dentist! Although her team provides all of the services that general dentists provide, such as: cleanings, fillings, crowns and general dental care, they have an extensive array of treatment options not widely available. Dr. Curington is a really talented cosmetic, implant and esthetic restoration specialist in treating advanced needs, such as a complete smile make-over using dental implants, porcelain veneers or other modern cosmetic dentistry procedures along with laser surgery, tooth-colored fillings, tooth whitening and porcelain crowns. Whatever level of dental care you may require, rest assured that you will be in the hands of a true dental artisan. Dr. Curington, a highly sought after and esteemed specialist in dentistry, creates dazzling new smiles through her experience and training as a Prosthodontist. The American Dental Association (ADA) recognizes only nine fields of dental specialty: Endodontics, Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology, Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology, Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics, Pediatric Dentistry, Periodontics, and Dr. Curington’s specialty of Prosthodontics.

Why see a general dentist when you can receive advanced care from a specialist?

Prosthodontists are Specialists in Dentistry

A Prosthodontist is a dentist who is committed to the esthetic restoration of teeth including bridges, crowns/caps, dental implants, dentures, partial dentures, teeth whitening and veneers. The vast majority of dentists are general dentists without ADA recognized advanced specialty training. Less than 100 dentists per year are chosen and accepted into Prosthodontic programs across the nation. The American College of Prosthodontists (ACP) ensures standards are maintained in the specialist field. Becoming a Prosthodontist requires an additional 3 years of specialty training after completing a general dentist degree. Training consists of rigorous preparation in head and neck anatomy, materials science, esthetics, function and occlusion (bite). Due to this extensive training, Prosthodontists are frequently called upon to treat complex cosmetic cases, full mouth rehabilitation and reconstructive dentistry, restoration of congenital malformations (cleft lip and palate, mouth deformations), TMJ related disorders, and victims of trauma or accidents.
