Restoration Options for Lost Teeth

Posted .

Losing teeth for any reason isn’t ever a pleasant experience. What makes it worse is that you’ll have to live with a gap in your smile, which can affect your self-confidence, oral health, and even how well you’re able to digest food.

However, there are many different options here at Plaza Dental Care for restoration of lost teeth.

Implants

One of the most popular methods for tooth restoration, dental implants are simple, quick, and last as long as you’re willing to take care of them. They’re simple titanium screws, inserted into your gums, and capped with a crown that looks, feels, and functions exactly like a real tooth.

Bridges

Dental bridges are another popular way to fill in the gaps in your smile. Using neighboring teeth, a fake tooth is inserted and attached to your other teeth via crowns. Bridges are a great option if you only need one tooth replaced, or don’t have the gum or jaw health necessary to receive an implant.

Dentures

Coming in either a full set or a partial, dentures are another way to replace teeth. If you’re missing quite a few teeth, dentures may be the way to go. They do require a bit more maintenance than bridges or implants, but they’re effective and still very much in use today.

After a consultation appointment with Dr.Khashayar Khomejany, they will recommend the best option for your tooth replacement needs. Callus today at 707-642-1360 to schedule that appointment.
