Restorative Services at Total Care Dental:

Understanding Your Tooth Replacement Options

Adults lose teeth or require dental extractions for many reasons, and missing teeth should never be a source of shame. Our replacements are made from materials like porcelain for a natural appearance and a seamless fit with your smile. Most people won't even notice they're "false" teeth.

 Tooth Replacement Options by Treatment

Discuss your replacement options with our expert dentists
DenturesDental Implants

Dentures are removable appliances used to replace many or all missing teeth.

  • Partial Dentures: Replace multiple teeth in a specific area.
  • Full Dentures: Replace all teeth on the upper or lower arch.
  • Care: Remove daily for cleaning and maintenance.

Dental implants are permanent solutions for missing teeth, designed to look and function like natural teeth.

  • Best for replacing one or multiple teeth in different areas.
  • Care: Maintain implants with regular brushing, flossing and professional check-ups.
Crowns and BridgesFour Life-Changing Implants

Crowns cover damaged teeth, while bridges replace one or more adjacent missing teeth.

  • Ideal for situations where adjacent teeth are healthy and strong.
  • Care: Treat like natural teeth with daily brushing and flossing.

This hybrid option combines implants and dentures to replace all teeth on an upper or lower arch using just four implants.

  • Completed in a single appointment for convenience.
  • Care: Similar to natural teeth with regular hygiene practices.

Model of DenturesWill The Way I Lost My Tooth Affect My Replacement Choices?

The circumstances surrounding tooth loss can influence which replacement options will work best. For instance, breaking a tooth or losing a tooth due to injury might mean waiting for gums and jawbone to heal before dental implants or bridges can be placed. Bone decay may require grafting to strengthen the alveolar bone for implant support. Weak or damaged teeth near the gap might rule out bridges as a viable choice.

At Total Care Dental, we use advanced dental technology to thoroughly evaluate your oral health and recommend the most suitable replacement options. Nearly all cases of tooth loss can be treated with long-lasting solutions to restore function and aesthetics, keeping your smile healthy and strong for years.

 

Which Tooth Replacement Option is Right for You?

OptionBest ForDurabilityCare NeedsCost Range
Dentures Many or all missing teeth Moderate Remove for cleaning $$
Dental Implants Single/multiple missing teeth High Regular oral hygiene $$$
Crowns/Bridges 1-2 adjacent missing teeth High Brush and floss regularly $$
Four Life-Changing Implants Full upper/lower arch restoration Very High Like natural teeth $$$$

Why Replace Missing Teeth?

Leaving missing teeth untreated can lead to complications like:

  • Bone Loss: The alveolar bone begins to decay after tooth loss.
  • Gum Recession: Surrounding gums may recede, risking other teeth.
  • Shifting Teeth: Adjacent teeth may shift, causing alignment issues.
  • Chewing Difficulties: Fewer teeth make it harder to chew food, leading to nutritional problems.

Replacing missing teeth restores your smile and prevents these complications, improving oral health and overall well-being.
