Specialist in Prosthodontics and Implant Dentistry
A Dental Practice With Over Two Decades of Tradition
Cary Prosthodontics was founded in 1991 by Karen Bruggers, DDS. After a very successful career treating patients in her full-time private practice, Dr. Bruggers decided to retire from private practice and return to teaching at Louisiana State University. In January 2016, Dr. Bruggers approached Dr. Brandon Kofford, who was also practicing prosthodontics in Cary, and asked him if he would be interested in assuming stewardship for her prosthodontics practice.
Dr. Kofford gave her an unequivocal “Yes!” and joined the practice in November 2016. Dr. Bruggers and Dr. Kofford are kindred spirits and share treatment philosophies and a common culture of compassion and excellence. We invite you to get to know who we are as a team, as well as who we are as individuals. After all, contrary to popular misconception, prosthodontists are people too!

What is a Prosthodontist?
Hi, I’m Laurie and I’m a treatment coordinator here at Cary Prosthodontics. One of the biggest questions I get asked, whether it’s in the office or out and about, is what is a prosthodontist? So the simple answer that I give people is it’s prosthetics for teeth. What does that mean? Because that can cover an array of things. So most dental professionals think of prosthodontists as covering dentures. So dentures is one of our biggest things, but we cover the replacement of all missing and broken down teeth. So that could include dentures, over dentures, or fixed hybrid dentures, which are implant dentures. So we have teeth that are supported by implants and it also includes crown and bridge work. It includes partial dentures or partials and veneers and aesthetics. We also can do composites and other restorations to help restore teeth.

Love coming here, they are busy and for a good reason!! Brittany is absolutely amazing and made me feel so comfortable. Dr Kofford is one of a kind and I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my dental work. What a great team, from the friendly faces up front to the care Laurie takes with her patients. Natalia is a bright light and you can tell the new doctors will fit in just fine 🙂 this is a great team and a jewel of a practice. Wonderful people who truly care about their patients!

The entire Group, my husband, Roger, and I, met with today to discuss the needed work to be done on my implant and upcoming crown were delightful. They clearly explained the future steps and costs to complete the task. For that we are grateful.
We thank you for your kindness and care.
Most sincerely, Christine & Roger Fearing
