The Finer Details of Tooth Replacement Therapy

Posted .

Are you looking to replace any lost or missing teeth? If so there are many treatments to choose from. Three of the best choices you have are dentures (both full and partial), dental implants, and dental bridges.

Dentures are a type of tooth replacement therapy that focuses on replacing missing teeth with a temporary set of teeth, as little as a single tooth, that can be easily removed at will. Each night dentures can be taken out for regular cleanings. They are bound in place by bonding to your gum tissue in your mouth with a dental bonding material.

Dental implants are highly effective tooth replacement treatments that are directly installed into your jawbone. Since they are installed into bone, they are permanent, but are very durable. A single dental implant can last a lifetime of normal wear and tear. If your jawbone is too weak to hold the implant, bone grafting procedures must be done or dental bridges can be used as an alternative.

Dental bridges are a type of tooth replacement therapy that focuses on replacing missing teeth with a permanent material that links onto other neighboring teeth or implants for a durable hold that can potentially last a lifetime.
