About

Board-certified prosthodontist Gary D. Krueger, DDS brings American Board of Prosthodontics diplomate credentials to Encinitas's Santa Fe Drive campus inside Scripps Memorial Hospital. Full-arch implant restorations and maxillofacial prosthetics require staged collaboration between prosthodontic and periodontal disciplines, a workflow this practice shares with Encinitas Periodontics & Dental Implants for guided surgical placement. A 1980 University at Buffalo School of Dental Medicine graduate, the practice holds both ABP board certification and Fellowship in the American College of Prosthodontists, with additional maxillofacial prosthodontics training completed at UCLA. Prior to opening this Encinitas office in 2000, the practice maintained a seventeen-year prosthodontics tenure in Buffalo, New York, including consulting work at Roswell Park Cancer Institute's maxillofacial department. Cone-beam computed tomography acquired at Imaging Healthcare Specialists informs the digital treatment-planning phase for implant-supported prostheses and full-mouth reconstruction cases. Highest-complexity cases include zirconia-layered full-arch fixed hybrid prostheses on six or more implants, requiring milled titanium substructures and CAD/CAM-designed porcelain layering for occlusal precision.
