Prosthodontist Boston
Get to Know Dr. Sharon Schrott
Dr. Schrott is a prosthodontist with a special interest in comprehensive cosmetic and implant dentistry. Her training and 20+ years of experience allow her to treat a wide variety of patient needs, ranging from simple fillings to dental implant therapy, aesthetic procedures, and highly complicated full-mouth reconstructions. Prosthodontics is the only dental specialty that includes training in cosmetic, restorative, and implant dentistry.
What is a Prosthodontist?
Prosthodontics is one of the nine American Dental Association-recognized dental specializations. To become a prosthodontist, a dentist must complete at least three years of additional training after earning the initial Doctor of Dental Surgery/Medicine (DDS/DMD) degree. Less than 3% of dentists have prosthodontic specialization.
This advanced training and experience makes a prosthodontist the ideal dental practitioner to perform tooth replacement because they are able to restore teeth to their natural beauty while ensuring your restorations will fit and function properly and are made only using biologically compatible materials.
Where Did You Study Dentistry?
Dr. Schrott attended the University of Puerto Rico and earned her dental degree from the Harvard School of Dental Medicine, and she went on to receive her master’s degree in prosthodontics at Harvard as well.

Providing comprehensive treatment while fulfilling the highest standards of care is of great importance to her, and her time abroad has enabled Dr. Schrott to integrate the best of both the European and American philosophies.
