The Restoration Specialist

Why a Prosthodontist Makes All the Difference

A prosthodontist completes 3 additional years of specialized training beyond dental school, focused entirely on restoring and replacing teeth. From a single crown to a full-mouth reconstruction, our prosthodontist has the expertise to handle the most complex cases — and the artistry to make every restoration look completely natural.

What truly sets Island Dental apart is our in-house lab. Your prosthodontist doesn’t send impressions to an outside facility and wait weeks for results. They walk to the lab, work directly with our technicians, and oversee every restoration from design to final placement. Same-day crowns. Precise fit. Beautiful results. That’s the LAB ON SITE advantage.

Restore. Rebuild. Reimagine Your Smile.

Our prosthodontist and in-house lab deliver every restoration — from a single crown to a complete smile transformation — right here at Island Dental.

  • All-on-4 / All-on-6 full-arch restorations

Your Prosthodontist + Our In-House Lab = Better Results

When the specialist who designs your restoration works steps away from the technician who fabricates it, the result is a level of precision and quality that outside labs simply can’t match.

Same-Day Crowns

Our CAD/CAM milling center fabricates your crown while you wait. In many cases, your restoration is placed the same visit — no temporary, no second appointment.

Direct Collaboration

Your prosthodontist and lab technician work side by side to match shade, shape, and fit. Changes are made in real time — not by sending notes back and forth to an outside facility.

30+ Years of Craftsmanship

Our in-house lab technicians have worked alongside our dentists for decades. Your result benefits from that direct, daily collaboration every single time.

Common Questions

Prosthodontist FAQs

Restoration being crafted in the on-site lab
What is a prosthodontist?

A prosthodontist is a dental specialist who completes 3 additional years of training beyond dental school, focused on restoring and replacing teeth. They handle crowns, bridges, dentures, implant restorations, veneers, and full-mouth reconstructions. Our prosthodontist is on staff at Island Dental — no referral needed.

Does Island Dental have a prosthodontist on staff?

Yes. Our prosthodontist is on staff at both our Franklin Square and Levittown locations. They work directly with our in-house lab, periodontist, oral surgeon, and general dentists — so every restoration is coordinated from start to finish under one roof.

What does “LAB ON SITE” mean for my treatment?

It means your crowns, bridges, dentures, and implant restorations are designed and fabricated right here in our office — not shipped to an outside lab. Your prosthodontist works directly with our lab technicians for faster turnaround, better fit, and more precise results. Same-day crowns are often possible.

Can I get same-day crowns at Island Dental?

In many cases, yes. Our in-house CAD/CAM milling center can fabricate your crown while you wait. Your prosthodontist oversees the design and fit — and our lab technician finalizes the restoration. No temporary crown, no second appointment in many cases.

What is a full-mouth reconstruction?

Full-mouth reconstruction is a comprehensive treatment plan to restore all or most of your teeth. It may include implants, crowns, bridges, veneers, and periodontal treatment — all coordinated by our prosthodontist and the specialist team. 0% financing makes phased treatment manageable.

How long do dental crowns last?

With proper care, high-quality crowns can last 15–20 years or more. Our zirconia and porcelain crowns are designed for durability and aesthetics. Fabricated in our in-house lab, every crown is checked for fit and quality by your prosthodontist before placement.
