There are several options for missing teeth and it is certainly worth discussing these options with your dentist. Here are Chelmsford Dental, we will help you decide on the right treatment, whether it is dental implants, a fixed dental bridge or removable partial dentures.
You will need to be in good physical health as this is a surgical procedure and will take several months to recover.
Your dentist won’t attach the replacement tooth until the dental implant completely heals.
You can see if you’re a candidate for a fixed dental bridge if you don’t want a dental implant. If you’re missing one or more teeth in the same area this tooth replacement option might be effective.
A fixed bridge essentially bridges a gap caused by a missing tooth using a dental prosthetic or artificial tooth.
Bridges are beneficial because they feel and look like natural teeth. You might find they improve the appearance of your natural teeth on either side of the space.
They’re also typically cheaper than dental implants.
It can be difficult to clean around the tooth underneath the bridge.
Bridges involve altering existing teeth. Also, a poorly fitted bridge could gradually damage adjoining teeth over time.
You might be a candidate for a removable partial dentures if you only need to replace some of your teeth.
This dental appliance consists of natural-looking pink base that replacement teeth are attached to. Although some dentures have a clasp that adjoins to natural teeth, your natural teeth stabilise and hold the removable plastic base in place.
Removable partial dentures look and feel natural in the mouth, and they’re also less expensive and easier to repair and replace than other tooth replacement options.
Some people might find partial dentures uncomfortable, at least until they adjust to wearing them.
Dentures must be removed remove them before bed and cleaned daily. They can be more susceptible to damage with the constant handling.
Our staff are more than happy to answer any questions or queries you may have.
