Dental Bridges
To replace single or multiple consecutive teeth, dental bridges make use of a larger restoration made up of multiple crowns fused together. To stay in place, existing teeth need to be slightly modified in shape. The bridge itself contains a crown on either end, both of which are hollowed out so they can fit on top of teeth, similar to dental crowns. The crown sitting in the middle is known as a “pontic” and effectively fills the gap in your smile. This prevents neighboring teeth from shifting out of place.
Dentures
Whether you have multiple missing teeth on opposite sides of your mouth or you’re missing all the teeth in a single arch, full and partial dentures can make replacing several missing teeth affordable. Each denture is customized to fit your mouth exactly, ensuring a long-lasting and comfortable fit. The partial dentures rely on neighboring teeth and metal clasps to stay in place, while full dentures rely on natural suction within the mouth to stay secure.
Dental Implants
When you need to have the most secure tooth replacement possible, dental implants offer a long-term solution. Instead of relying on neighboring teeth or the shape of your mouth to stay in place, they use titanium posts that integrate with your existing bone and gum tissue. The result is a bond that feels almost identical to natural teeth. Even if you’re missing more than one tooth, dental implants can be customized to fit with both bridges and dentures.
