The loss of a tooth can be a devastating event in your life. Whether it’s the result of an accident or neglect, the impact is the same; your confidence suffers because you have lost a part of you that you assumed you’d have for a long time.
Beyond that, though, tooth loss also significantly your ability to eat,
But the Novato dental implants dentist offers several options for replacing missing teeth and regaining functionality. From partial dentures to full dental implants, we can restore your smile and your life.
Dental Bridges
A bridge is a prosthetic that is designed to fill the space left by a missing tooth. An artificial tooth is suspended on either side by crowns that we attach to adjacent teeth. A bridge will restore function and conceal the empty space.
Full or Partial Dentures
Partial dentures continue to be a reliable tooth replacement option that works well for many people. We recommend partials in cases where several or all teeth are missing, and they are designed to fit in and around existing teeth.
Full dentures are recommended when most or all teeth are missing. Today we design natural-looking dentures that fit comfortably and restore much of the function lost with missing teeth.
Dental Implants
If you’re looking for the replacement that looks, feels, and functions the most like a natural tooth, dental implants may be the perfect option. Implants are rooted in your jaw, so they offer stability and can be used for any of the above replacement methods. We can also use implants as a stand-alone tooth replacement when restored with a dental crown.
