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.
