A missing tooth can not only change your appearance, it can also cause problems with biting, chewing and speaking. Depending on how many teeth you have lost, it can also cause a ‘sunken face’ effect whereby your cheeks sink and cause wrinkles around the mouth. The more teeth you lose, the more flexibility in your cheeks because there is nothing to support them.

Missing teeth can be caused by a number of factors, most often caused by tooth decay, gum disease or significant trauma and injury. Over time, missing teeth can cause further problems, which is why we SmilePlace dental clinic always advise for the treatment of a missing tooth.

If you are looking for a missing tooth completion, fortunately, there are a number of excellent options available to restore your smile. The sooner you visit your dentist for advice on completing a missing tooth, the better options you will have for replacing teeth – so we always recommend visiting your dentist earlier.

1. Dental implants

Dental implants are one of the most common methods of treating missing teeth, it is cost effective
and is especially effective because implants prevent the bone from being absorbed because the bone has something to hold on to. You can use implants to replace single missing teeth or multiple missing teeth.

Unlike some other options for replacing missing teeth, dental implants look and feel like a real tooth Although it takes them a while to heal, implants are a great solution permanently and can be maintained on them with the help of a dental crown.

The bone fits around the dental implant to make it stable and secure for long-term replacement of missing teeth. When properly cared for and maintained, dental implants can last a lifetime.

If you are in a hurry, you will also be happy to know that there is a treatment that gives you dental implants in just one day, which means that you will not need several appointments to restore your smile. Dental implants on the same day allow the completion of a missing tooth or several missing teeth within a few hours.

2. Dental bridge

Dental bridges are a great option for restoring your smile, can also restore your ability to eat and talk, as well as the structure of your face to prevent the remaining teeth from sinking inside.

They help rebalance your bite by filling in gaps between the teeth where you lost teeth.

A porcelain bridge can be used to replace missing teeth if there are teeth on either side of the space to support the bridge. They are strong and durable over time, provided you treat them properly and visit your dentist every six months for follow-up and testing.

At our clinic SmilePlace dental clinic there are three different types of dental bridges we offer, including traditional bridges, glued bridges and screwed bridges supported by implants. Although we understand that you are unlikely to understand the difference between these three types of bridges, we take the time to explain each treatment to you to help you make the best decision.
