A dental implant replaces both the root and the crown of a missing tooth. A small titanium post is placed in the jawbone, where it bonds with the bone over time, and a crown, bridge, or denture is attached on top. Because implants stand on their own, the healthy teeth around the gap stay untouched.
A fixed bridge is a connected set of replacement teeth cemented to the natural teeth on either side of the gap. It stays in place full time, but the neighboring teeth usually need to be reshaped to support it, and a bridge does not replace the missing root.
A metal partial denture is made of durable metal and plastic and held in place by wire clips that grip your remaining teeth. You can take it out to clean it and put it back in yourself.
Dentures replace all of the teeth in the upper or lower jaw. They work well for some people, while others find that they slip or feel uncomfortable. Implants can anchor a denture for greater stability, as with a bar-attachment denture. See your options if you're missing all upper or lower teeth.
A flipper is a removable plastic tooth attached to a plastic retainer. It is inexpensive but fragile, so it is usually used as a temporary placeholder while you plan a longer-term replacement.
A dental implant may be a good fit if:
Implants need enough healthy jawbone to anchor them. If bone has thinned since you lost the tooth, bone grafting for implants can rebuild it first. If a tooth still needs to be removed, our surgeons can perform the extraction and, when appropriate, socket preservation to protect the bone for a future implant.
The cost of replacing a missing tooth depends on the option you choose, how many teeth you're replacing, and whether you need extractions or bone grafting first. Your surgeon will give you an estimate at your consultation.
Our team can review your insurance benefits and payment options with you before treatment begins.
