Replacing Missing Teeth with Precision and Care
Comprehensive Prosthodontic Services at Sun Dental
At Sun Dental, we understand that missing teeth can affect more than just your smile. They can impact your ability to eat comfortably, speak clearly, and feel confident in social situations. That’s why we offer a full range of prosthodontics designed to restore function, aesthetics, and quality of life. Led by Dr. Daesun Lee, our Las Vegas practice combines advanced techniques with personalized care to help you rediscover the joy of a complete, healthy smile.
Prosthodontics is a specialized branch of dentistry focused on the design, creation, and fitting of artificial teeth and oral prosthetics. Whether you need a single tooth replacement or a full-mouth restoration, our team has the expertise and technology to deliver exceptional results.
Dental Implants
Dental implants are the gold standard for tooth replacement. These titanium posts are surgically placed into the jawbone, where they fuse with the bone to create a stable foundation for replacement teeth. Unlike dentures or bridges, dental implants look, feel, and function like natural teeth. They also help preserve jawbone density and prevent the facial sagging that can occur with tooth loss. When you’re searching for dental implants Las Vegas patients trust, Sun Dental offers the expertise and technology to ensure successful, long-lasting results.
Flippers & Removable Partial Dentures
For patients who need a temporary or budget-friendly solution, flippers and removable partial dentures offer an effective way to fill gaps left by missing teeth. Flippers are lightweight, removable appliances that can be worn while waiting for a more permanent restoration. Removable partial dentures are designed to replace multiple missing teeth while being easily taken out for cleaning. Both options restore your smile’s appearance and help maintain proper tooth alignment.
Full & Partial Dentures
Full dentures replace an entire arch of missing teeth, while partial dentures are designed for patients who still have some natural teeth remaining. Today’s dentures are more comfortable and natural-looking than ever before. At Sun Dental, we take precise measurements and impressions to ensure your dentures fit properly and provide optimal function. With proper care, dentures can restore your ability to eat, speak, and smile with confidence.
Hybrid Prosthesis
A hybrid prosthesis combines the stability of dental implants with the convenience of a denture. This fixed restoration is secured to dental implants, meaning it doesn’t come out like traditional dentures. Hybrid prosthetics offer superior chewing ability and a natural appearance, making them an excellent option for patients who want the benefits of implants without individual crowns for every tooth.
Implant Restoration
Once your dental implants have fully integrated with the jawbone, they need to be restored with a crown, bridge, or denture. Our implant restoration services ensure that your replacement teeth are custom-designed to match your natural teeth in color, shape, and size. The result is a seamless, functional smile that enhances both your appearance and oral health.
Implant-Retained Dentures & Partials
Implant-retained dentures and partials offer the best of both worlds: the stability of dental implants and the convenience of a removable prosthetic. These dentures snap onto implants placed in your jaw, providing a secure fit that won’t slip or shift during eating or speaking. Patients appreciate the improved comfort and confidence that come with implant-retained prosthetics.

Frequently Asked Questions About Prosthodontics
How long do prosthodontic restorations last?
With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime, while dentures typically need replacement every 5 to 10 years. Regular dental visits help ensure your restorations remain in good condition.
Are prosthodontics services painful?
Most prosthodontic procedures are performed with local anesthesia or sedation to ensure your comfort. Any post-procedure discomfort is usually mild and manageable with over-the-counter pain relievers.
Will my insurance cover prosthodontics?
Coverage varies by plan, but many dental insurance policies cover at least a portion of prosthodontics. Our team can help you understand your benefits and explore financing options.
How do I care for my dentures or implants?
Dentures should be cleaned daily and soaked overnight. Dental implants require regular brushing, flossing, and professional cleanings, just like natural teeth.
