What Is Prosthodontics?
Prosthodontics focuses on restoring function and appearance to your smile by replacing missing or damaged teeth with high-quality solutions, like crowns, bridges, implants, and dentures. These treatments help maintain oral health, improve chewing and speaking, and give confidence a boost. Our leading dentists at 5 Star Dental Group are highly trained specialists with extensive knowledge in advanced restorative dentistry. Our prosthodontist specializes in the structure of the mouth, how teeth fit together, and how to create functional solutions that look and feel natural. Schedule a consultation with our San Antonio, TX team to discover your options with proficient-level precision.
What Should I Expect from Prosthodontics?
Prosthodontic care begins with an assessment of your needs. Our team will examine your teeth, gums, and jaw and discuss goals. If you need a fixed prosthodontic solution, such as a crown or bridge, impressions are taken of your mouth, and a custom-made piece is designed to fit your specific structure. These fixed options are bonded securely in place, ensuring durability and a natural appearance. For implant prosthodontics, the process includes surgically placing dental implants in the jawbone. This advanced option can support individual crowns, bridges, or even full-arch dentures. Our prosthodontist will explain each step in detail so you know what to expect at every stage. With prosthodontics, each treatment plan is uniquely tailored to give you long-lasting, comfortable results.

5 Star Dental Group Reviews
Great people! Great Service!
The best! 100% recommend
Always the best professional care!
My husband and I have been going here for about 25 years. They are always friendly, on time and professional, from Mary Jo at the front desk to every single staff member. Dr Tostado is wonderful, knowledgeable with extreme attention to detail. He communicates every aspect of your care. He makes us feel comfortable Dr. Acuna gave me my numbing medicine on my last visit and I didn’t feel any discomfort during its administration and afterwards. She was excellent and was so gentle. They are upfront with all aspects of your care, very ethical and we have never been disappointed. The office is beautiful too, very calm and very clean. I would recommend this practice all the time.
Dr Tostado is so kind and so interested in you and gives you so much of his time. So glad my friends recommended him ! The whole team is amazing! My hygienist , Karen is so sweet and makes teeth cleaning a breeze!!
