Can a Periodontist install a Prosthetic by a Lab, and not a Prosthodontist?
Anonymous Patient
Periodontists are well trained in the issues affecting your dental health. They are certainly aware of the interactions between prosthesis and periodontal well being. If your periodontist is 'installing' your prosthesis, it must be a coordinated decision of the overall treatment plan. I would advise that you keep the communication lines open between yourself, your restorative dentist and your periodontist throughout the process to maximize the probability of reaching your goals.
