Replacing Missing Teeth

Your Options for Recreating Your Smile

Losing a tooth might not seem like a big deal initially, but over time, it could lead to complications you may not have considered. Not only can eating, speaking, and smiling become difficult, but the surrounding teeth begin to shift to fill in the gap. This leaves you with an uneven bite and a higher risk for teeth grinding, TMJ disorder, and additional tooth loss. Luckily, we offer multiple ways of replacing missing teeth at Lake View Dental Center. Contact our office today to learn more about your options for completing your smile!

Dental Bridges

For many years now, dental bridges have been considered the standard for replacing one, two, or three missing teeth in a row. Each bridge consists of a set of personalized dental crowns that are bonded together. The crowns on either end are hollowed out and fitted over the natural teeth adjacent to the gap. With the replacement teeth seamlessly filling the space between them, a bridge keeps your bite even, prevents your remaining teeth from drifting, and makes it easier to chew, talk, and smile.

Dentures & Partials

Dentures today are much stronger and more comfortable than they were just a few decades ago, making it easy for patients with extensive tooth loss to have complete smiles again. A full denture can replicate a whole row of pearly whites, while a partial denture (or simply a partial) fills in the empty spaces between remaining teeth. Whichever type of denture you receive, you can trust that it will improve your speech, digestion, and confidence.

Dental Implants

As the most modern and comprehensive tooth replacement, dental implants rebuild the tooth’s entire structure. With a titanium post that is placed in the jaw by an oral surgeon, the implant brings back the tooth’s root. It even fuses with the jawbone, preventing bone loss and creating a potentially lifelong bond. After seeing one of our partnered dental implant specialists, you’ll return to our office to have our dentists restore the implant with a crown, bridge, or denture.
