Missing teeth can have a terrible impact on the way we look and function. A tooth missing for only a few months can cause the neighbouring teeth to drift, bone support to be lost, and damage to the surrounding teeth as they have to absorb more force than nature designed them for. Of course, missing teeth are also unattractive and can affect our speech as well.
Fortunately, dentistry has several ways to replace missing teeth to restore your oral health. Options include removable dentures, implant retained crowns and other prostheses, bonded artificial teeth, and custom fixed bridgework.
