Depending on your treatment goals, different ways of replacing teeth exist to suit your needs. Not everyone needs to remove all their teeth and start over. Most of the time, patients who feel this way find out after visiting us that there are great treatment options that involve saving their teeth.
What may suit you
The right approach depends on how many teeth are affected and what you want to achieve.
Missing one or two teeth
If you have most of your teeth, single tooth replacement or multiple implant replacement may be the best option for you.
Many broken-down or loose teeth
If many of your teeth are broken down or very mobile, or the amount of dental work needed feels like too much to keep up with, full arch replacement may be a good option.
Dentures supported by implants
Implants can also support a denture, which is another option we can talk through with you.
When to be seen sooner
Heavily broken-down teeth
They can hold infection that affects your mouth and your general health, so it is essential to have them seen by a dental professional.
