Your smile deserves the best care, especially when it comes to restoring or replacing teeth. Dr. Victor Lee, our expert prosthodontist in Washington Heights, specializes in creating beautiful, functional smiles tailored to your unique needs. Whether you need a single crown or a full-mouth reconstruction, we’re here to give your smile everything it needs to look, feel, and function its best, all under one roof.
What Can Our Prosthodontist Do for Your Smile?
Dr. Lee is a prosthodontist, a dental specialist who focuses on restoring and replacing teeth. He has completed several years of advanced training beyond dental school to become an expert in designing solutions for even the most challenging dental problems.
While general dentists can handle basic restorative care, prosthodontists excel in managing complex cases. From replacing missing teeth with dental implants to creating custom crowns, bridges, and dentures, prosthodontists have the skills and experience to rebuild your smile with precision and artistry.
Prosthodontists have advanced expertise in the physics involved in biting and chewing, which allows them to create restorations with ideal balance and harmony, which can protect your teeth, gums, and jaw health over the long term. At Fort Washington Dental Associates, our prosthodontist works alongside our general dentists, orthodontist, and periodontist to provide seamless, high-quality care, so you can get everything you need in one convenient location.

What Is the Difference Between a Prosthodontist and a Restoration Dentist?
If you’re dealing with missing teeth, damaged dental work, or other complex dental issues, prosthodontic care could be the solution you need. But how can you tell if you need a prosthodontist or a restoration dentist?
In general, any time you’re struggling with functional difficulties or have complex restorative dentistry needs, you may be better off seeing a prosthodontist. These issues include:
- Struggling to chew food comfortably
- Ongoing jaw pain caused by teeth grinding during sleep or stress
- Teeth that are chipped, cracked, or stained
- One or more teeth are missing
- Experienced trauma or injury to your teeth or mouth
- Recovering from dental issues related to cancer treatments or other illnesses
- Feeling unhappy with the look of your teeth or smile
This can be a tough decision to make. The good news is that our practice includes a full team of restoration dentists as well as prosthodontists, implant surgeons, and other dental specialists in Washington Heights, NYC so you can get comprehensive treatment options without needing to coordinate between separate practices. We can easily coordinate with each other and take a team approach to ensure your smile gets the best possible outcome.
