According to recent dental surveys it has come to light that nearly 50 % of our population is missing at least one tooth due to gum disease, tooth decay or injury and about 1 in 10 are missing all of their teeth.

If you’re missing one or more, you’ve probably thought about getting a replacement before as well, but don’t know which option is right for you – or if you can even afford it. Don’t worry, we’re here to help you every step of the way.

 

First of all, why should we replace our missing teeth? Obviously everyone loves a nice toothy smile, but don’t forget the real reason we have teeth – to chew our food well. For each of your missing tooth, you will lose at least 20% of your chewing ability from that side. y nature your jaw is designed to operate with 28 teeth and as soon as one is out of the equation, the surrounding teeth start to drift into the empty space. This not only makes your good teeth more prone to decay and gum disease, but it can also change your appearance. Because after an extraction, the bone that supports the teeth begins to shrink and over time your face adjusts with it. Of course no one wants to look and feel older than they really are! But the longer you wait after a tooth is extracted, the more bone volume you lose. And the more bone volume you lose, the more expensive and difficult it becomes to get teeth replaced………

The long-lasting option: Dental Implants.

If you are missing teeth and your gums and jaw are healthy, you may get the benefit of getting dental implants, which are replacement teeth that are implanted surgically into the jawbone. With good oral hygiene, dental implants can last for 10 to 20 years or more without the need for replacement. Dental implants are often a popular choice for people who have only one or two teeth missing, but they can be an alternative to dentures if you have several missing teeth. As long as your gums and jaw are healthy, two or more implants can serve as a base of support for several replacement teeth.

Dental implants are generally the most expensive option but for patients with good oral health, they are likely going to be your best choice to avoid further tooth decay or loss. Whenever you replace a tooth, you hope it’ll be the last time. Dental implants give you the best chance of keeping your remaining healthy teeth.

 

Another option is a fixed Dental Bridge.

If you’re just replacing a single or two teeth and have healthy gums, a fixed dental bridge will always be a far less expensive option for you. now we have an option of conventional Porcelain fused to metal bridge & the latest once the Zirconia metal free CAD CAM crown & bridge work — These normally last about 10-12 years. In order to make a bridge, the adjacent teeth are prepared by reducing their size and then prosthetic teeth are placed over the existing teeth and empty space. The problem with fixed bridges is the irreversible damage they do to your adjacent teeth.

 

The classic choice: Dentures.

Most people who have heard of dentures (a.k.a false teeth) have also heard that they can be a nuisance – slipping while speaking, discomfort while chewing and of course soaking them by your bed every night – but dentures have come a long way in recent years. Most commonly when people think of dentures, they think of complete dentures which are recommended when a patient is missing all of his/her teeth or have weakened bone.

Partial dentures are dentures that only replace some of your teeth. They rely on the surrounding teeth for support, and so can cause additional damage to those surrounding teeth and gums. Implant supported dentures are recommended when a patient is missing all of his/her teeth but has a healthy enough jaw to support implants.
