Teeth Replacement Solutions from Dr. Levine



If you’re missing teeth, there’s no need to despair. At Dr. Susan Levine’s office we have several teeth replacement options available to give you a healthy, beautiful smile once again. It is important to replace missing teeth as soon as possible so that the rest of your smile remains healthy. Once you’re missing a tooth, it increases your chances that more will fall out. Also, the rest of your teeth will shift to try and fill in the space, and could result in misaligned teeth and negatively impact your bite.

If you’re missing one tooth, we can use dental implants to replace it. A biocompatible post will be inserted in your jaw bone and allowed to heal. Then, a porcelain crown will be placed on top to take the place of the missing tooth. If you’re missing one, two or three teeth in a row then a crown and bridge is a good solution. It is a row of crowns that will be attached to your teeth. In the middle will be crowns to replace the missing teeth, ending with a crown that will be attached to a healthy tooth either side of the affected area, to help and bridge the gap. 

If you’re missing a substantial amount of teeth, we have dentures and partials. Partial dentures can be attached with implants or metal clasps and are removable. Full dentures are used to replace a full set of teeth and restore function to your smile. They can also be attached by dental implants

No matter what your smile needs, we have teeth replacement solutions to help repair and restore your smile. If you’re missing teeth, call us today to schedule a consultation and take the first step towards restoring your smile’s function and appearance.
