If you are missing one or more teeth, there are plenty of reasons, and we offer many treatments, to correct the problem. Treatment to replace missing teeth is important because a large space between your teeth can affect how you speak and eat. Even if it’s not noticeable, a missing molar can affect how you chew. Remaining teeth may shift or may be weakened by excessive force, and in some cases, bone loss can occur
How can I replace my missing teeth?
With today’s advances, you don’t have to suffer from missing teeth. Here are some options that we can offer:
- Implants - Most similar to a natural tooth.
- Bridge - Anchored to your adjacent teeth, a bridge replaces missing teeth with artificial teeth and literally “bridges” the gap where one or more teeth used to be. Bridges can be made from gold, alloys, porcelain or a combination of these materials and are attached to surrounding teeth for support. Unlike a removable bridge, which you can take out and clean, a fixed bridge can only be removed by a dentist.
- Denture - An option if you’ve lost all or most of your teeth.
