A life with multiple missing teeth is never a enjoyable life. Chewing and talking becomes uncomfortable. Also, the remaining teeth can move and shift into the gaps. Missing teeth can also cause you to have jawbone loss, which can affect the way you look.
If you have missing teeth, you may feel shame or shyness about your appearance. Missing teeth might even lead you to change the way you speak or smile to hide the gaps from view.
If you have one or multiple missing teeth, our dental team at Alpine Dentistry can help you. The dental implants we can provide you will restore the look and function of your teeth. It will also make them healthy for life.
Dental implants replace your tooth’s roots, providing a life-long foundation for replacement teeth. We insert the implants (titanium posts) into your jawbone. Then, a few months later, we attach dental crowns or bridges to the posts to replace your missing teeth.
If you have more than one missing tooth, we have some options to restore your mouth’s look and function. Tooth replacement options for you will include: Removable partial dentures consist of a gum-colored base with replacement teeth. This dental appliance rests on your gum tissue and clasps onto your remaining teeth. A tooth-supported bridge is a man-made tooth (or teeth) that spans a gap where one or more of your teeth are missing. We usually place a crown on either side of your missing tooth as anchors for the bridge. The whole bridge looks like your natural teeth.
At Alpine Dentistry, we offer you the above teeth-replacement options. However, we often recommend implant-supported crowns or bridges. These replacement teeth are ideal if the remaining teeth are not strong or healthy. Implant-supported bridges attach to the dental implants we place into the jawbone. These appliances fully restore your teeth’s natural look and function. Unlike removable dentures, dental implants will prevent bone loss. Implants will also keep your remaining teeth from shifting.
Dental implants cost more than tooth-supported bridges and partial dentures. However, for the higher price, your new implants have the same qualities as natural teeth. You will also never need to replace, adjust, or fasten your implant-supported dentures. Like natural teeth, your implants will never cause discomfort or gum irritation.
If you can’t afford an upfront payment for dental implants, the good news is that we can help. At Alpine Dentistry, we offer flexible financing options through CareCredit and Mountain America Credit Union.
Dental implant and denture costs are all-inclusive and include your First consultation, all the needed scans, Sedation as well as post-op treatments. If you have several missing teeth, our dental implant treatment may be the ideal solution for you. Be sure to reach out and schedule a visit to learn more about this permanent dental solution.
