Dental Bridges
Dental bridges are among the most common forms of tooth replacement in dentistry. To create a bridge, a series of crowns are fused together, typically three or four depending on the number of teeth that need replacing. The crowns on either end are hollowed out so they can be fitted on top of existing teeth, while the crowns in between them fill the gap. Not only does this make chewing and smiling easier, but it prevents neighboring teeth from shifting out of alignment.
Dentures
If you have extensive tooth loss, our dental office can design and create a full or partial denture. Full dentures work to replace an entire arch of teeth, while partial dentures focus on multiple teeth on opposing sides of the mouth. Both utilize acrylic and porcelain materials to naturally blend in with your smile. However, full dentures are held in place via the natural suction of the mouth. Partial dentures use metal hooks that wrap around adjacent teeth.
Dental Implants
As the most comprehensive solution for replacing teeth, dental implants work to restore the roots and the crowns in one treatment – it is the closest thing to turning back the clock on your natural smile! If you care about addressing all the side effects of tooth loss, dental implants are the most effective solution available. We can even place your implant(s) in-house, a step that often requires an outside specialist to perform offsite in other dental offices.
