I am missing several teeth
Gum disease, decay or an accident can lead to the loss of several teeth. Long-lasting solutions exist to restore efficient chewing and a smile you are proud of.
What are the consequences?
When several teeth are missing, the whole mouth is affected:
In daily life: chewing becomes harder, which can affect digestion, and an incomplete smile can weigh on self-confidence.
For the remaining teeth: they shift into the gaps and may eventually become loose, as they carry the whole chewing load alone.
For the bone: it gradually shrinks where teeth are missing.
This is why an appropriate, long-lasting treatment is important.
Ask for a pre-implant examination
Possible solutions
After a complete examination, your dentist presents the solutions suited to your situation and your wishes.
The bridge or the removable partial denture
These solutions are quick to carry out. However, they are less durable and less comfortable, and they can increase the risk of decay on the teeth that support them.
Fixed prostheses on implants
They offer excellent long-term results, great everyday comfort and a very natural look. The ideal solution to avoid the drawbacks of a removable denture.
The number of implants and the type of bridge are decided with you according to your situation.
