Missing Teeth

There are several ways to replace missing teeth, including partial and full dentures, dental bridges and dental implants.

Dental Implants

If you have one or more teeth that are missing, having a dental implant might be an option for replacing the missing teeth.

A dental implant is a piece of metal that looks like a screw. It is put into the jaw where the missing tooth’s roots were. Over time, bone grows around the implant, which helps to hold it in place. An artificial tooth, or crown, is then attached to the metal to fill in the gap left by the missing tooth. The crown is specially made to look like your other teeth in size, shape and colour.

Dentures

Removable Appliances for Missing Teeth

Dentures are prosthetic devices constructed to replace missing teeth, and are supported by the surrounding soft and hard tissues of the oral cavity. Conventional dentures are removable. However, there are many denture designs, some which rely on bonding or clasping onto teeth or dental implants.
