· Bridges
Dental bridges replace missing teeth—either single teeth or multiple teeth in a row—with custom-crafted resin or porcelain restorations. Bridges stay in place because they are attached to adjacent teeth with small brackets. Some bridges are removable, while others stay in place permanently.
· Dentures
These dental prostheses are used to replace many consecutive missing teeth or a full complement of top or bottom teeth. Traditionally, dentures stay in place due to the custom-molded base, which fits snugly over the patient’s gum and jaw tissue. Additionally, patients can use denture adhesive to increase stability.
· Dental Implants
Dental implants are the latest innovation in the world of tooth replacement dentistry. These restorations are actually permanently anchored in the patient’s smile with a titanium root (which is shaped like a small screw or post). Once the dental implant tooth is in place, the titanium begins to bond with the patient’s natural jawbone tissue. Dental implants provide exceptional stability, oral health advantages, and natural-looking results.
