Have you considered replacing a missing tooth? If you are missing one tooth or multiple teeth, you may have started to explore options for replacement. There are several options to choose from for tooth replacement, and talking to a dentist near you can help you make an informed and educated decision.
A dental bridge may be a possibility to replace missing dentition. Bridges may also be referred to as artificial teeth. Bridges can restore the missing dentition in your smile. They act as a bridge with “abutment” teeth serving as the anchors. Abutment teeth must be in good health. Dental bridges are custom made to your specifications and will fit precisely.

A dental bridge may be a possible treatment option if you are missing any of your teeth. A bridge can restore missing teeth, and can positively impact phonetics (speech), esthetics and chewing function. Dental bridges can also increase confidence over time, leading to a positive overall impact on one’s quality of life.
 People can experience several issues if they have missing teeth for a long period of time. Missing one or multiple teeth can result in the shifting of teeth over time, which would need to be corrected with orthodontic treatment. Cleaning of gum tissue may become more challenging with shifting teeth, and may result in more issues like cavities or periodontal concerns.
