Dental Bridges
A dental bridge does exactly what its name implies; it “bridges” the gap left by multiple missing teeth in a row along the same arch. It’s able to do this thanks to a row of pontics, or replacement teeth, situated between two dental crowns that are placed on the teeth adjacent to the gap. The new teeth should look and feel similar to your original ones.
Dentures
When most people think about replacing teeth, dentures come to mind first. This iconic, tried-and-true form of tooth replacement has helped countless generations of patients with missing teeth. Better yet, they are highly customizable and can assist patients who’ve lost teeth in one or both arches. Dentures rely on a base that rests on top of the gums, adorned with prosthetic replacement teeth that perfectly mimic your natural pearly whites. They typically rely on suction and adhesives to remain stable and functional.
Dental Implants
When it comes to replacing missing teeth, dental implants have been considered the gold standard for quite some time since they’re the only option capable of restoring a lost tooth’s entire structure, from root to crown. However, this does mean that the process of receiving them is lengthier and more complex. In any case, the payoff is absolutely worth it since this solution even has the potential to last for a lifetime, as well as imparting several other unique, life-enhancing benefits.
