Education and Training

As an integral unit of The Dental College of Georgia, the Department of Restorative Sciences is committed to achieving academic excellence, providing optimal oral health care and actively engaging in research, scholarship and creative endeavors to meet the needs of the widely-dispersed and highly-diverse population of Georgia, the region and the nation.

Preparing tomorrow's oral health care providers, the Restorative Sciences Department is comprised of the specialty areas in dentistry which concentrate primarily on rebuilding the oral structures into a healthy state by a combination of treatment planning and then the execution of the art and science of restorative dentistry.

Patient Care

Our prosthodontists specialize in the replacement of missing teeth and the restoration of natural teeth to restore your smile and confidence while preventing further damage. As leaders in the development of new concepts and techniques for analyzing the interaction between biomaterials and various anatomical structures, we have positioned ourselves to create, analyze, and implement synthetic materials for tissue replacement and prosthetic therapy.

Care is delivered in a dedicated clinic within the bright and spacious Dental College of Georgia, a facility that offers easy access to every dental specialty under one roof.
