Dr. Morgan Gwin
Prosthodontist

Originally from Edmonton, Dr. Morgan Gwin obtained a degree in Mechanical Engineering before completing the DDS program at the University of Alberta in 2015.  She spent three years in private practice in the Edmonton area before returning to graduate school at the University of Washington to specialize in Prosthodontics.

The field of Prosthodontics deals with the replacement of missing teeth and oral tissues with the goal of restoring oral form and function so that patients can comfortably and confidently speak, chew, laugh and smile.  Prosthodontists have advanced training in smile esthetics, restorative dentistry, dental implants, full arch prostheses (patients may know these as “All on 4” or “fixed complete dentures”), and removable prosthetics (complete and partial dentures). She provides a range of treatment, from restoration of single teeth to complex, full mouth rehabilitations that involve teeth, implants, or a combination of both.

Because every patient’s oral condition and treatment needs are unique, Dr. Gwin would be happy to see you for a 15-30 minute consultation to determine if treatment with a Prosthodontist is appropriate for you.
