Dental Implants
Replacing missing teeth traditionally relies on restorations that only repair the parts of the tooth we see above the gumline. Dental implant prosthetics are the only tooth replacement solutions that replace the root system as well as the crown of the lost tooth. This versatile tooth replacement option can be used to replace a single tooth or a complete row of teeth.

Dental Bridges
You may be a candidate for a dental bridge if you’re missing one or more teeth. A bridge is made out of dental crowns attached to the side of one or more replacement teeth called pontics. The crowns are anchored to your natural teeth so that the pontics between them can fill in the gap. Since bridges can be made out of the same natural-looking materials as single crowns, they can blend right in with the rest of your grin, making it appear as though you never had any missing teeth in the first place.

Dentures
For patients with advanced tooth loss, partial or full dentures offer effective smile repair. Our custom-crafted partials fit snuggly between remaining healthy teeth held in place by metal brackets attached to the surrounding teeth. Full dentures are molded to fit against the gumline to create suction that will hold these prosthetics in position. Some patients also use small amounts of denture adhesive to provide additional stability.
