Dental Bridges
Dental bridges can be used in a couple of different situations; they can replace a single tooth, but they might also be a good option if two or more consecutive teeth are missing. Each bridge has a specific number of artificial teeth suspended between a pair of crowns. Said crowns are used to anchor the bridge to the teeth on either side of the gap. Once your bridge is in place, you will no longer have to worry about your other teeth drifting into the open space.
Dentures
Getting a denture typically means one of two things: using a partial denture to fill in multiple gaps in your smile or using a full denture to replace the entire arch. Both kinds of dentures consist of a gum-colored base and natural-looking prosthetic teeth. Since dentures are removable, you can take them out at bedtime to give your mouth a break; you’ll also be able to clean underneath them more easily to get rid of bacteria and food particles.
Dental Implants
Dental implants can last for 30 years or more, and they’re a much more permanent solution compared to other types of tooth loss. Additionally, they can perform the same functions as the roots of your teeth; this includes stimulating the jawbone so that it doesn’t degenerate. If you schedule a dental implant consultation with our team, we can explain more about the benefits of dental implants and check your mouth to see if you’re a good candidate.
