More About Prosthodontist in Boca Raton, FL
Some dental problems don’t fit into a routine appointment: several missing teeth, a bite that has shifted over the years, or a smile that no longer feels like yours. These situations call for someone who looks at the whole picture of how your teeth, gums, and jaw work together.
At Boca Dental Wellness, Dr. Joshua Gold brings that perspective as a prosthodontist and general dentist. Alongside our other dental services in Boca Raton, he focuses on restoring and replacing teeth as well as routine dental care, so you can chew comfortably, speak clearly, and smile with confidence.
What Does a Prosthodontist Do?
Prosthodontics is a recognized dental specialty centered on restoring and replacing teeth. Prosthodontists complete a three-year accredited residency after dental school, focusing on restoring teeth, placing and restoring dental implants, and treating areas with missing teeth. Patients often seek this care after tooth decay, injury, or tooth loss.
Dr. Gold also practices as a general dentist, so you can see him for exams and everyday care as well. A prosthodontist adds advanced training for complex cases involving multiple teeth, your bite, and your appearance, and often coordinates with oral surgeons and other dental professionals to build a single, well-organized treatment plan.
Dr. Gold’s Training and Background
Dr. Joshua Gold began his path at Nova Southeastern University College of Dental Medicine, where he earned his Doctor of Dental Medicine and a prosthodontic award recognizing his clinical excellence. He later earned his prosthodontic certificate at Stony Brook University in New York, with training focused on dental esthetics, dental implants, and full-mouth reconstruction.
He also earned an AEGD certificate and completed clinical training at a VA Medical Center in Miami. Dr. Gold describes dentistry as a blend of science and art, and that mindset shows in the careful, individualized way he plans each case. He treats a wide range of patients, from routine restorative needs to complex cases involving trauma, genetic conditions, or esthetic concerns.
Prosthodontic Services We Offer at Boca Dental Wellness
Our prosthodontic care covers everything from a single damaged tooth to a complete smile rebuild. These are the main services we provide:
- Full mouth reconstruction: A coordinated plan that restores your entire smile’s function and appearance, based on your bite, goals, and comfort.
- Custom crowns: Each custom crown is designed to restore a damaged tooth and blend with your natural smile.
- Dental bridges: A dental bridge replaces one or more missing teeth by anchoring replacement teeth to neighboring teeth or implants.
- Implant crowns: An implant crown replaces a single missing tooth with a lifelike restoration supported by its own implant.
- Implant bridges: Implant bridges replace several missing teeth in a row with implants providing the support.
- Custom abutments: A custom abutment connects your implant to its restoration and is shaped to fit your gum line.
- Dentures: Dentures replace all of the teeth in an arch with a removable restoration fitted to your mouth.
- Implant-supported dentures: Implant-supported dentures anchor a denture to implants for added stability.
- Partial dentures: Partial dentures fill the gaps when some of your natural teeth remain.
Many of these options build on our dental implants, and Dr. Gold walks you through the choices that fit your situation before any treatment begins. If you are not sure which option fits, a consultation is a good place to start.
Why Prosthodontic Training Sets Our Practice Apart
Prosthodontic training shapes how we approach every restoration, from the first consultation to the final fitting.
One Plan for Your Whole Smile
Because this training covers the teeth, gums, and bite together, Dr. Gold can plan crowns, bridges, and implants as one coordinated treatment instead of a series of separate fixes. That approach helps your new teeth work with your bite and your gums, not just look good on their own.
Surgical and Restorative Care Working Together
Dr. Gold places implants and restores them, and when a case calls for advanced surgery such as a sinus lift, we coordinate with trusted oral surgeons and stay involved throughout.
Digital Precision and Everyday Comfort
We use digital tools, including 3D and intraoral scanners, to plan accurately, and our advanced technology supports a comfortable, low-anxiety visit. Our team also speaks Spanish, so you can ask questions in the language you prefer. Digital planning also helps us show you what to expect, so you can make decisions with confidence.
Insurance and Payment Options
We want cost questions answered before treatment begins, so you can focus on the care itself.
Working With Your Insurance
We welcome patients with insurance as well as those who pay fee-for-service. Coverage for prosthodontic treatment varies by plan, and some services may be covered differently than routine care, so we encourage you to review our insurance and payment information and bring your questions to your visit. Our team is happy to help you make the most of your benefits and explain what to expect before you commit to a treatment plan.
Financing Your Care
Larger restorative plans, such as full mouth reconstruction or implant-supported work, often involve more than one stage, and we aim to make the financial side as clear as the clinical side. We accept CareCredit and Cherry financing, which may help you spread the cost of care over time. We also have an in-house wellness membership plan for patients without insurance, and our team can share the current details when you call or visit.

Common Questions
- A local anesthetic will be administered to numb the area where the implant will be placed. To add to your comfort, you may also choose nitrous oxide or IV sedation.
- Once you are comfortable, the surgeon will use special instruments to insert a titanium implant into the jaw bone.
- Healing time depends on the quality and quantity of bone mass, as well as gum health. Once the bone and gum tissue have healed, you will receive your permanent crown.
When you are missing a tooth, the jaw bone that once held the tooth roots in place may thin. In this case, you may require a bone graft prior to implant placement. Bone grafting reinforces the jaw structure, eventually preparing it to hold and stabilize the implant.
The longer the cavity that was once occupied by the roots of your tooth goes unfilled, the greater the chances the bone structure will weaken. For this reason, we recommend seeking dental implant treatment sooner rather than later.
