Dental Implants
Dental implants are often referred to as the gold standard when it comes to replacing missing teeth, and the reason is simple—they offer so much more than traditional restoration solutions. The process involves titanium posts that are placed directly into the jawbone, where they fuse and become replacement tooth roots. From there, custom-made restorations are attached and receive impressive support. Dental implants can prevent the bone loss in the jaw that is associated with lost teeth, and with the right care, they can last for decades.

Dental Bridges
Dental bridges are used to replace anywhere from one to a few missing teeth along the same arch. They do what their name implies, forming a “bridge” to fill the gap, with the help of crowns placed on the teeth adjacent to it. The replacement teeth are lifelike and can withstand the daily pressure of biting and chewing, and with the right care, a bridge can last for several years.
Dentures
Dentures are what come to mind for most people when they think about tooth replacement options, and these tried-and-true restorations have helped countless patients over the years. While traditional dentures rely on adhesives and suction to remain stable, implant-retained dentures combine dental implant posts with the dentures for added support, among other unique benefits.
