Your Treatment Options for Missing Teeth
Missing teeth can cause a variety of dental issues, including difficulty chewing and speaking. It can also affect the appearance of your smile. Fortunately, there are several treatment options available to replace missing teeth:
Dental Implants
Dental implants are artificial tooth roots that are surgically implanted into the jawbone to support a replacement tooth or bridge. They are a long-lasting solution and can provide a natural-looking and functioning replacement for missing teeth.
Bridges
A dental bridge is a fixed dental restoration that is used to replace 1 or more missing teeth. It consists of 2 or more crowns that are placed on either side of the gap and a false tooth that fills the space in between.
