How to replace missing teeth

By utilizing implants, dentures, or bridgework, missing teeth can be effectively restored. Utilizing advanced materials and gum management techniques can produce exceptional results, with replacement teeth seamlessly blending in with natural teeth, appearing to emerge effortlessly from the gum.

The benefits of replacing missing teeth extend beyond aesthetic improvements. In fact, it can significantly enhance oral health and overall well-being. The presence of gaps due to missing teeth can impact the alignment of existing teeth, causing them to shift and tilt into the empty spaces. This misalignment can create spaces that trap food particles, leading to an increased risk of decay and gum disease. Additionally, replacing missing teeth can also have a profound impact on one's self-confidence and overall quality of life.

Replacing a single missing tooth

Dental implants replace the root of the tooth and provide a foundation for a dental crown.

A single implant can help to preserve the existing jaw bone and prevent further bone loss.
The benefits of a single implant include keeping the neighbouring teeth intact, because the replacement tooth is connected directly to the jaw via the implant.
Help to restore confidence when smiling, speaking or eating, with increased function and aesthetics.

Replacing multiple missing teeth

Implant bridges can replace multiple teeth securely without the need to alter the neighbouring teeth. They can provide extra stability to your smile and prevent the remaining teeth from shifting. This can help to restore your chewing and speaking ability.

Dental implants offer a direct replacement for your natural teeth; they look, feel and function the exact same. This means you will have a stable, aesthetic and confidence inspiring tooth replacement when compared to traditional dentures or bridges. They can be used to replace a single tooth or as a platform for dentures or bridges, allowing the replacement of multiple teeth at a lower cost.

Full-arch Implants

All-on-Four is a popular alternative treatment to dentures at our Birmingham based clinic, using between four and six (All-on-Six) dental implants to provide support for a full replacement smile. This treatment replaces missing teeth, providing a permanent fixed teeth solution compared to dentures which can be removed.

I had treatment at the Edgbaston Smile Clinic to fix two front teeth that were damaged due to grinding. The veneers I had fitted are brilliant - they look so natural. I'm really pleased with the result and the quality of care and attention provided. I also followed Shobhna's advice that 'building up' some worn down molars would avoid further damage from night time grinding. This preventative treatment has worked really well - I'm delighted.
