Prosthodontists specialize in the diagnosis and treatment planning of patients who have complex dental needs and who provide treatment services that primarily involve the repair or replacement of natural teeth with a variety of fixed or removable prosthetic options. A prosthodontist attends three years of extended training in various areas of restorative dentistry. It includes dental implants, crowns, bridges, complete dentures, partial dentures, aesthetics, occlusion, and facial and dental birth developmental defects. They are trained in the technical aspects of laboratory fabrication of complex dental prosthetics and complex restoration of dental and facial aesthetics.
VIEW COURSE DETAILSDr. Jonathan Ouellette, a Brevard County, Florida native, received his undergraduate degree and dental training at the University of Javeriana. He then returned to the United States and attended a two-year AEGD at the University of Florida. He then completed an additional GPR with the focus in implant dentistry at the Lutheran Medical Center “The Foundry” in Birmingham, Alabama. Dr. Ouellette returned to Florida and opened his dental practice in Orlando with a focus on implants and implant restorations. He is also a loving husband to his wonderful wife Kimberly and now a father to their three amazing children, Jack, Wyatt and Charlotte. When he is not at the office or spending time with his family, you can find him at the golf course trying to perfect his game. Dentistry has truly been his lifelong passion and he hopes he can not only continue to help his patients but also help the next generation of doctors to find the love and passion they need to practice dentistry.

Versatile Treatment. Dental implant can replace one or many missing teeth from accidental avulsion, or loss due to gum disease. A thorough examination of the smile is required to determine whether a dental implant is best to restore the smile.
Better Appearance. Loss on entire tooth shrinks the jawbone. It causes the face to look older. Dental implants can stop it while a traditional denture or bridge won’t.
Preserve Natural Teeth. Traditional dental bridges use neighbouring healthy teeth as anchors. Dental implants don’t modify healthy teeth.
Solution for Life. A dental implant is stable with no adjustments required afterwards. There are no loose parts to worry, and it lasts for a lifetime.
Patients who have missed one or more teeth, the dental implant is the most effective tooth replacement procedure. The deciding factor is the amount of bone available. Dental and health history has to be evaluated before performing the procedure on older patients
