Implant Procedure for Missing Several Teeth
Having dental implants replacing your
lost teeth will give you new, unparalleled strength and stability
that allows you to eat what you want. It will also preserve your
jawbone and facial appearance.
The best option is a “fixed” (non-removable) alternative.
Fixed teeth provide a stable, secure solution that lets you eat
what you want. Dental implants also preserve your facial appearance
and prevent bone loss that would occur if nothing were done.
In the back of the mouth where bite forces are extremely strong,
one implant per tooth is the ideal. Although not always required,
most patients prefer to have individual teeth rather than an implant
bridge for the back teeth. With individual implant crowns, you will
be able to floss your teeth normally. With an implant bridge, an
easy to use floss threader will have to be used on a daily basis
to get under the middle teeth. We will aid you in making the best
decision for your particular situation. |
