 The replacement of missing teeth is essential:
- To prevent the teeth either side from drifting forward and back.
- To prevent the teeth either side from ‘tipping' over into the space, increasing the incidence of gum disease and subsequently the loss of other teeth.
- To prevent your bite from becoming ‘misaligned'.
- To prevent the opposing tooth from ‘over-erupting' – coming further through the gum.
- To improve chewing ability.
- To improve the appearance of your smile – a missing tooth can be very noticeable.
There are three different options available to replace a missing tooth.
- Dental Implant - this is the most successful and long-lasting treatment
- Bridge - this option is also very effective
- Partial Denture – this offers short term replacement
