It shouldn’t come as a surprise to you that when you look great, you tend to feel pretty great. Missing or broken teeth can impede your self-confidence. Untreated tooth loss can even be the cause of unfortunate health problems such as resorption (bone loss) in the jawbone, painful gum disease, or even chronic, life-threatening health issues.
Thankfully, there are several options available to those dealing with broken or missing teeth. Continue reading to learn about the different permanent solutions available to those who are struggling.
Dental Implants
Dental implants in CA are one of the most popular options for missing teeth, regardless of how many teeth you might need to replace. In fact, dental implants can even prevent resorption in the jaw and they act as a normal tooth. Cleaning your dental implants is easy because you can brush and even floss them! You can even eat while wearing your dental implants.
A dental implant might seem intimidating because a metal post gets fused to the jaw in place of a tooth root. But don’t worry! Once you have your implants fused on, you will be able to cover the posts with dental crowns or bridges. You will notice that you feel better about the way your smile looks and even regain some of the confidence that you lost when you broke or lost your tooth.
Dental crowns and bridges are the components that get placed over the dental implant that look just like your other teeth.
If you are missing just one tooth, you will have a single dental crown placed on the implant. If you are missing more than one tooth, your dentist will recommend a device that bridges the gap. These crowns and bridges will look like your other teeth when all is said and done.
Dentures and Veneers
Dentures are designed to fit perfectly in your mouth while appearing to look natural. Depending on how many teeth you might be missing, there are options to be fitted for partial or full dentures. They are a good option for those looking for a more affordable dental solution. Because the dentures aren’t permanently adhered to your gums, you can take them out to make cleaning easier.
Porcelain veneers are an ideal option for broken teeth. The veneer is a sort of shell that gets bonded to the front of the broken tooth. The shell is customized to look exactly like your existing teeth and can help you to improve your smile.
