Cosmetic and prosthodontic implant work covers more than a single missing tooth. This category includes full-arch reconstructions, implant-supported bridges and dentures, veneers paired with implant restorations, and the crown and abutment work that makes an implant look and function like a natural tooth. It's a different skill set from routine extraction-and-implant placement: the provider needs to plan for bite alignment, gum contour, and how the final restoration matches the rest of your smile. Greer has 23 businesses offering some version of this work, ranging from general dentists who handle restorations in-house to specialists (prosthodontists and oral surgeons) who focus almost entirely on complex or full-mouth cases.
What to look for before you choose
Start with who actually does the restoration. Some practices place the implant and refer the crown work elsewhere, which adds time and coordination risk. Ask to see before-and-after photos of cases similar to yours, not just single-tooth examples if you need a full arch. Find out what materials they use for crowns and frameworks (zirconia versus porcelain-fused-to-metal matters for both durability and appearance), and whether they use digital scanning and 3D imaging for planning, which tends to produce a better fit and fewer follow-up adjustments. Also ask about warranty terms on the restoration itself, not just the implant fixture, since these can fail or need replacing on different timelines.
How our scoring helps
We rank providers based on verified credentials, the range and complexity of cosmetic and prosthodontic cases they handle, patient feedback specific to restoration quality, and transparency around pricing and treatment planning.
