Prosthodontics
Prosthodontics in Marylebone at 19 Wimpole Street Dental Practice
At 19 Wimpole Street, prosthodontic care is led by Dr Ramon Badalbit (GDC: 70207), one of a small number of GDC-registered Prosthodontics Specialists practising in central London. With over 30 years of experience and a Masters degree in Fixed and Removable Prosthodontics from The Royal London Hospital, Dr Badalbit brings a level of specialist expertise to restorative dentistry that goes well beyond a general dental practice.
Prosthodontics is the branch of dentistry concerned with the restoration and replacement of teeth — combining clinical function with aesthetic precision to rebuild smiles that have been affected by damage, decay, tooth loss, or wear. Whether you need a single crown or a full mouth reconstruction, every treatment plan at our Wimpole Street practice is designed around your long-term oral health and quality of life.
Prosthodontic treatments available at our Marylebone practice include:
- Dental implants — permanent tooth replacement anchored directly into the jawbone
- Crowns and bridges — restoring damaged or missing teeth with custom-made, natural-looking restorations
- Veneers — thin porcelain or composite facings that correct the appearance of discoloured, chipped, or uneven teeth
- Dentures — removable restorations for patients who have lost multiple or all of their teeth
- Full mouth reconstruction — a comprehensive treatment plan combining multiple restorative and cosmetic procedures
- TMJ therapy — diagnosis and treatment of jaw joint disorders that can cause pain, clicking, or difficulty chewing
What is a Prosthodontics Specialist?
Not all dentists who carry out restorative work hold specialist registration with the GDC. A Prosthodontics Specialist has completed additional postgraduate training specifically in the restoration and replacement of teeth, and is listed on the GDC’s specialist register — a distinction that reflects both the depth of their clinical training and their ongoing commitment to specialist standards of care.
At 19 Wimpole Street, this means your restorative treatment is assessed and overseen by a clinician who has dedicated their career to this area of dentistry — not a general practitioner offering restorative work as part of a broader menu of treatments.

Your Dental Implant Journey
1. Consultation
The first step on any treatment journey with us is an in-depth consultation, as it helps us to assess your smile, gives us the opportunity to look over your dental history, and ensures you can discuss your treatment in advance – with absolutely no commitment. In prosthodontics, the consultation involves diagnosing causes of oral deterioration and developing treatment plans.
2. Treatment
Prosthodontics aims to provide an artificial restoration (such as a crown) which should blend with the patient’s mouth, teeth and gums. Treatment could include:
- Veneers – a tooth-coloured facing that can cover dull, discoloured teeth; protect teeth from further damage; and correct the appearance of misalignment or gaps
- Crowns – a whole tooth covering, these aim to restore function and strength to the tooth
- Bridges – these involve anchoring an artificial tooth (or teeth) between two existing teeth in the mouth
- Dental implants – these are complete false teeth, which anchor to your jaw bone and can stay in place for life
3. Aftercare
We’re committed to dental excellence – so in our minds, the treatment doesn’t end when we put down our tools. For prosthodontic treatment, aftercare depends on the procedure or treatment you’ve been offered, but rest assured our expert dentists will be with you at every stage to ensure you’re healthy, happy and comfortable.

about prosthodontics at 19 Wimpole Street Dental Practice
Prosthodontics is a specialist branch of dentistry focused on restoring and replacing teeth. It involves treatments such as crowns, bridges, dentures, dental implants, veneers, and full mouth reconstruction, helping patients regain both function and aesthetics in their smile.
Prosthodontics aims to create a natural-looking, natural-performing tooth restoration that can benefit oral health. Our team can enhance the shape and appearance of your smile through whitening, colour-matching and bonding techniques, all the while using fixed prostheses to retain or improve the function of the mouth, teeth and gums.
The duration of prosthodontic treatment varies depending on the complexity of your case. Simple treatments like crowns or veneers may take a few weeks, while full mouth reconstructions or implant-supported restorations can take several months. At our Marylebone practice, we provide a detailed personalised plan with estimated treatment times.
Anyone with missing, damaged, or worn teeth may benefit from prosthodontic care. Our Marylebone dentists assess each patient individually to recommend the most appropriate solution, whether it’s a single restoration or a full smile makeover.
Prosthodontics can help manage and treat oral health problems concerning missing teeth and function, relating to tooth decay, gum disease and other oral problems.
