Dental Bridges
A dental bridge does exactly what its name implies; it forms a “bridge” to fill in the gap left by one or a few missing teeth in a row along the same arch. The bridge itself consists of a row of pontics, or replacement teeth, that are connected and supported with two dental crowns placed adjacent to the gap. Bridges can also sometimes be supported with dental implant posts.
Dentures
Dentures are probably the most recognizable of all forms of tooth replacement, and these prosthetics have assisted countless patients with varying degrees of tooth loss. Partial dentures can be used to help patients missing several of their teeth, while full dentures can restore entire lost arches. Made from durable, beautiful materials, dentures mimic your natural teeth in terms of look and feel, and they grant patients the ability to eat, speak, and smile confidently again.
Dental Implants
Dental implants take restoration one step further by replacing the entire structure of a missing tooth from root to crown. A small, titanium post is surgically placed beneath the gumline in the space where a tooth was lost—and over the course of several months, it will fuse with the jawbone to become a replacement tooth root. Then, a custom-made dental restoration can be attached on top that receives support from the underlying post.
