Implants You Can Get to Restore One Lost Tooth


Posted on 11/16/2020 by Dr. Nick Raptou
Implants You Can Get to Restore One Lost ToothMissing one tooth in your mouth can affect your looks and bite. Also, it can make you self-conscious when interacting with other people. Luckily, you can gain your confidence by considering dental implants to restore your lost tooth. This restoration option is increasingly becoming popular among adults of different ages. It can help you rediscover your beauty and make your mouth functional again after losing teeth. Implants can maintain your jawbone strength for a long time. Here are reliable implant options for you if you are missing one tooth.

Use of a Dental Implant


A dental implant occupies the place of a missing natural tooth. This dental device is inserted into your jawbone to support a replacement, restorative crown, denture, or bridge. It is the best solution for anyone missing a tooth due to periodontal disease, injury, or other health complications. Its success rate is higher than 95%. Besides, it is durable, permanent, and requires less maintenance. Most importantly, it provides a long-term treatment solution for a missing tooth. 

Tooth-Supported Fixed Bridge


Apart from using a dental implant to restore one lost tooth, you can settle for a tooth-supported fixed bridge. This option comes with two crowns that fit nicely onto your teeth located on each side of the gap. These teeth are popularly known as abutment crowns and are attached to the pontics or the replacement teeth. The best thing about this restoration option is that it is fixed permanently in place. It is also a quick solution to your missing tooth if you prefer not to undergo surgery. After all, implant surgery is not for everyone, especially those with medical conditions that have affected their immunity.
