From dental implants to bridges and dentures, we offer a range of options to replace your missing teeth and create a complete, healthy smile.
What Causes Teeth to Fall Out?
Teeth can fall out due to untreated tooth decay, advanced gum disease weakening the supporting structures, natural aging and wear, traumatic injuries, and certain medical conditions.
Maintaining oral hygiene, regular dental care, and addressing dental problems promptly are crucial in preventing premature tooth loss.
How Missing Teeth Affect Your Face
Missing teeth can have a significant impact on your facial appearance and overall oral health. When teeth are lost, neighboring teeth may shift to fill the gap, causing misalignment and changes in your bite. This can lead to an uneven distribution of pressure on remaining teeth, potentially resulting in further tooth loss.
Additionally, the loss of teeth can lead to bone resorption in the jaw, causing the facial structure to lose support and resulting in a sunken or aged appearance. Speech clarity and the ability to chew properly can also be compromised.

Options for Replacing Missing Teeth
Dental Implants
Dental implants are artificial tooth roots surgically placed into the jawbone. They provide a sturdy foundation for replacement teeth, ensuring stability and a natural look and feel.
Dentures
Dentures are removable replacements for missing teeth and surrounding tissues. They can be partial dentures (replacing a few teeth) or complete dentures (replacing all teeth in an arch).
Dental Bridges
Bridges are fixed prosthetics that replace one or more missing teeth. They are anchored to adjacent teeth or dental implants, restoring both appearance and function.
Dental Crowns
Crowns are often used in combination with dental implants to replace individual missing teeth. They cap the implant, mimicking the appearance and function of a natural tooth.
Implant-Supported Dentures
These dentures are securely anchored to dental implants, providing enhanced stability compared to traditional dentures.
All-on-4 or All-on-6
This technique involves placing a full arch of teeth on just four (or six) dental implants, providing a fixed solution for those missing all teeth in an arch.
