Dental Bridges
A dental bridge can be used to replace either a single tooth or multiple consecutive teeth. It’s made up of a pair of dental crowns that are attached to one or more replacement teeth called pontics. The pontics are used to fill in the gap in your smile while the crowns are secured to your natural teeth to hold the restoration in place. Like individual crowns, dental bridges can be personalized so that they look natural next to the rest of your grin.
Dentures
When you’re missing multiple teeth, dentures can be used to replace them all simultaneously. Full dentures replace an entire arch; partial dentures can be used to fill in multiple gaps in the upper or lower jaw. A full denture sits directly on your gumline and uses natural suction and adhesive to stay in place. In contrast, a partial denture is attached to your natural teeth with metal clasps. Both types of dentures can be removed for thorough cleanings.
Dental Implants
Dental implants are unique compared to other tooth replacement options. They don’t just replace the biting surface of the teeth; they also fulfill the same functions as the tooth roots, allowing them to stimulate the jaw and prevent bone loss. Furthermore, they provide stability and chewing power that’s almost on par with your natural teeth, meaning they’re able to handle virtually any kind of food. You can schedule a consultation with Dr. Magid to determine whether dental implants are a good choice for you.
