A member asked:

Can you tell me what kinds of work do prosthodontists perform, and do they perform any type of surgery?

Yes: Prosthodontists are experts at cosmetic and implant dentistry. This means veneers, crowns, implant restorations n dentures. Some prosthodontists have had post graduate training in placement of implants. This allows better control of certain situations such as immediate extractions and immediate implant placement with temporary crowns.
