Q. What are my options?
A.
- Single Tooth Replacement. When both the tooth and root are damaged, the best permanent replacement is a dental implant in conjunction with a ceramic crown. This solution both looks and functions just like a natural tooth. In this case, a one-piece implant is used. This means that all components are installed as a single unit, resulting in immediately full functioning teeth, shorter treatment time and minimized pain.
- Multiple Tooth Implant Dentistry. When replacing three teeth in the far back of the mouth, a fixed bridge anchored to dental implants is the only fixed alternative. Traditional dentures can’t offer the same stability or function. Having dental implants replace your lost back teeth will give you new strength and stability that allows you to eat what you want. It will also preserve your jawbone and facial appearance.
- Full Arch Replacement. When all teeth are missing or in such condition that they need to be replaced, a fixed bridge anchored to dental implants is the best permanent solution. Today, it is possible to replace a full jaw with dental implants and a fixed bridge for a permanent and attractive solution.
