Arlington Heights Dentists Celebrate National Prosthodontics Awareness Week

Arlington Heights dentists promote National Prosthodontics Awareness Week by encouraging the community to receive help on replacing missing teeth.

Arlington Heights dentists, Dr. Edward Vallely and Dr. Courtney Martusiewicz, and dental team are promoting National Prosthodontics Awareness Week. At Associates for General Dentistry, Ltd., we are encouraging the community to receive help on how to improve your smile by replacing missing teeth.

Prosthodontics is the replacement of teeth and restoration. You may need a prosthodontics if you are missing one of more teeth, are interested in dental implants, are currently wearing dentures or you want to improve your smile. Some prosthodontics options include dental crowns, bridges, dentures or implants.

Dr. Vallely is a highly trained dentist and understands that everyone has his or her own individual dental needs.  In the instance that you may benefit from a referral to a prosthodontist, you will find comfort in knowing that we have established relationships with the top local providers in the area that embody similar philosophies in patient care and excellence. 

Prosthodontists are able to provide a high level of care to patients that have missing or damaged teeth.  In addition, they are trained to care for patients who have problems with their teeth from neglect or trauma, as well as offering therapy for temporomandibular joint disorders. You may need TMJ therapy if you are experiencing tension and tenderness in your face or jaw, difficulty with opening your mouth wide, locking or clicking or your jaw, difficulty in chewing, a tired feeling in your face, and swelling on the side of your face.  Other common symptoms of TMJ include toothaches, headaches, dizziness, earaches, ringing in the ears or hearing problems.

Dr. Vallely and his team are encouraging the community to receive a complete oral examination and seek help to replace lost teeth.  Our team wants only the best for our patients and that is why we are emphasizing the importance of National Prosthodontics Awareness Week.  At Associates for General Dentistry, Ltd., our goal is to give you exceptional service beginning with your initial contact with our office all the way through treatment at every visit.
