When you have missing teeth, eating and speaking can become more difficult as well as affecting your confidence when you smile. Gaps caused by missing teeth that are not replaced can also increase the risk of oral health problems.
Replacing missing teeth with the treatment that is right for you, can:
Replacing missing teeth can also prevent adjacent teeth tilting or shifting into the space left by the lost tooth. At the Kettering Dental & Implant Clinic, we recommend replacing missing teeth as soon as possible after an extraction or tooth loss.
A dental bridge is fixed in place and supported between two crowns that are bonded to healthy teeth on either side of the gap.
Removable dentures can be a convenient solution to replace several or a complete row of missing teeth, to maintain your bite and give you a new smile.
Titanium inserts fixed into the jawbone act as a permanent replacement tooth root. A crown is then bonded to the top of the implant, with a virtually identical shape and appearance as the missing tooth.
Your treatment options to replace missing teeth will depend on the number and position of missing teeth as well as the condition of your gums and jawbone. Your dentist will help you decide on the treatment that is right for you.
