WE ARE ALL ABOUT PROSTHETIC DENTISTRY HERE!

Prosthodontists are dental specialists trained in the restoration and maintenance of oral function, comfort, appearance, and health by restoring natural teeth that are broken or worn, or in the case of missing teeth, replaced.

WE USE THE LATEST TECHNOLOGY

We use a 3D laser scanner to take precision images of your teeth. We design your restoration on a 3D CAD computer and can simulate the fit in the computer. When we’re done it is sent to our in-office milling unit

THE LAB IS IN OUR OFFICE!

The milling chamber uses diamond burs to manufacture your restoration out of a ceramic block. There are various ceramic materials that may be used. Dr. Stewart will advise the correct material for your situation. He will then custom characterize the restoration in a ceramic furnace so that it blends with your other teeth, all done while you relax in our office.

THE DESKTOP LABORATORY

We utilize a new concept in the delivery of dental care, the desktop laboratory. This laboratory has a 3D camera, instead of impressions, to image your mouth. Your tooth is designed with CAD/CAM software and milled out of a block of ceramic.

CROWNS WHILE YOU WAIT

Really enjoy rubber impressions when
you need a crown? We have not met
anyone who looks forward to that! Now we have digital impressions with a 3-D camera, and final high-strength ceramic crowns milled while you watch. These CAD/CAM crowns are completed in ONE appointment. No worries about temporary crowns staying on the tooth for several weeks while the crown is being made in a lab elsewhere. We are the lab! 

MISSING TEETH

Missing teeth can be a real problem.
Jaw joints can hurt, teeth can shift, your bite can be off, speech can be affected, and your chewing can be awkward. Missing teeth can result in the other teeth becoming loose or cracking. We spend our days restoring the health of patients’ mouths by replacing missing teeth with implant crowns and bridges, natural tooth bridges, removable partials, and complete dentures. 

HYGIENE SERVICES

Even though we are a prosthodontic specialty dental office, we offer professional cleanings that also allow review of our dental work. Often patients are referred to our office to solve particularly challenging dental conditions. When their rehabilitation is complete, we often alternate their professional cleanings with their general dentist or specialist so that both offices get to see the patient each year for review.

Your Dentist Knows Best

Don’t rush when you brush!

Taking the time to properly brush your teeth is crucial for maintaining optimal oral health. Rushing through this important task can lead to ineffective cleaning, leaving behind plaque and bacteria that contribute to cavities, gum disease, and other dental issues

Visit your dentist once in 6 months

Visiting your dentist once every six months is essential for maintaining excellent oral health. These routine check-ups allow your dentist to detect any potential issues early on, preventing them from developing into more significant problems. During these visits, your dentist can conduct professional cleanings to remove plaque and tartar buildup, reducing the risk of cavities and gum disease

Don’t Forget to Floss!

a simple yet crucial reminder for optimal oral health. Flossing removes plaque and debris from between teeth and along the gumline, where toothbrushes can’t reach. By incorporating daily flossing into your routine, you help prevent cavities, gum disease, and bad breath, ensuring a healthy and confident smile.

Frequently Asked Questions

Explore answers to commonly asked questions about our dental services, appointments, and oral health care.

What is a prosthodontist?

Prosthodontists are dental specialists trained in the restoration and maintenance of oral function, comfort, appearance, and health by restoring natural teeth that are broken or worn, in addition to the replacement of missing teeth. A small percentage of those dentists trained in prosthodontists go on to become certified by the American Board of Prosthodontists. Dr. Stewart became a prosthodontist in 1990 and completed his board certification in 1995. He received his dental degree from the University of Michigan School of Dentistry and master’s degree in prosthodontics at the Mayo Clinic Graduate School of Medicine.

Do you do implants at this office?

Dental implants require planning between the prosthodontist (our office), surgeon, and patient. Our office will educate you and determine the need or usefulness of implants in your situation, direct the dental surgeon in the positioning of the implant(s) in your mouth to meet the intended needs, and then we provide the abutment support and final crown or bridge over the implant. This “team” approach lends itself to the advantageous “checks and balances” approach during your care.

How long does it take?

Integration of your bone to the surface of titanium dental implants varies from 3 to 6 months. This is the typical rate of bone growth and has been scientifically determined from the work done on humans in the late 60’s. This “modern” day implant has undergone some slight changes to design of the body and surface, but basically remains unchanged to this day.

How long do I have wait after the implant is placed to have the crown or bridge placed?

With the 40+ years of dental implant experience, the scientific dental community has concluded that implants may be used to support temporary, and in some cases, final crowns and bridges the same day they are placed. Computer-aided guidance and treatment planning has created a more straightforward procedure for the patient. The routine swelling and tenderness has been minimized. Many go back to work after a full day or two of rest.

Since I have dental insurance, I won't need to pay for my dental work, right?

Your responsibility is payment of the agreed upon fees at the point of service. Our responsibility is to make sure your treatment is done properly according to customary specialty standards. Our office will fill out all your insurance claims and send them in at the time the treatment is provided. You will receive direct payment from your dental insurance carrier according to the coverage amount. We expect payment from you at the time of the service, with the exception of a pre-arranged agreement on a patient-by-patient basis. The difference in the payment you receive from your insurance carrier and what you paid our office is your out-of-pocket cost of that care. Please be prepared to furnish your current dental insurance card and understand your dental benefits.

Do you accept credit cards?

Yes! Visa, MasterCard and American Express.

Do you offer a payment plan?

Yes! Your option for payments is through CARE CREDIT®, a health care credit card that you apply for individually. They have several options, including interest free and low interest plans. We can offer all the help you need to begin this application. It is very easy!

How do you expect payment?

Payment for services are to be made on the day the treatment is rendered. Our specialty office is routinely involved in complicated and extensive dental treatment plans. The nature of prosthodontics is treating the most complex dental problems. Consequently, costs become significant. Treatment is typically organized in phases, so that payments are also organized in phases. You will know what your ultimate responsibilities are before any treatment is started. It is important to understand that phases are used to allow for healing, preparation, or fabrication of restorations. When the first phase is started, it is assumed that all phases will be completed as outline at the treatment planning stage.

Patients Valueable Feedbacks

I have been a patient of Dr. Robert Stewart since 1994. He is a gifted prosthodontist. My beautiful smile can attest to his passion and commitment to his profession. He is a perfectionist and the outcome is a work of art. His office presents a pleasant upscale homey, clean atmosphere, consistent staff, state of the art dental equipment headed by a genuine approachable down to earth professional who truly cares about his patients.
- C.P. Grosse Pointe Farms, MI

I recently had to undergo some major prosthodontic  work and can say that my experience with Dr. Stewart and his team was nothing short of fantastic!  After deciding what plan to pursue, Dr. Stewart and his team put together a complete schedule of work planned, carefully and meticulously explaining everything to me, made sure I understood and was comfortable with the plan.  Dr. Stewart and his team were great with their professionalism, compassion and care with me.   

- Truly satisfied patient, M.Z. St. Clair Shores, MI

I am not only impressed with Dr. Stewart’s “technical” skills, but also his inter-person mannerisms.  My daughter is mentally challenged and Dr. Stewart and his staff have consistently and naturally shown nothing but respect and love towards her.  They have never shortchanged her or her treatment. As a patient, he gave me the opportunity to input my desires into the outcome.  He never told me “This is how it will be done”.  The staff has always been professional, friendly and as accommodating as possible.
