If you\u2019re like 120 million Americans, you\u2019ve likely lost a tooth or two over the years. You have more options than ever to fill the gaps. While you could choose a traditional method, you can join over 500,000 people annually who are turning to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.keysdentist.com\/dental-implants.html\">dental implants<\/a> to treat their missing teeth. As a nearly perfect replica of your real teeth, you can enjoy results that can last for decades. There are 3 types of dental implants available. Here\u2019s what you need to know to choose the best option for your smile.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Single Missing Tooth<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A single missing tooth is typically treated with a bridge and crowns. All-ceramic material is used to replicate the position of your tooth above the gum line. The bridge is held in place by bonding dental crowns over the adjacent teeth. Although the treatment is effective, you\u2019ll need to permanently alter healthy teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As an alternative to a fixed bridge, a dental implant restores the entire tooth from the root up. A titanium post is surgically placed into your jaw to act as a root. An abutment is connected to the post to attach your restoration. You won\u2019t need to worry about reshaping any teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Multiple Consecutive Missing Teeth<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A bridge and crowns can also treat consecutive tooth loss, but they will only last for a few years before needing to be replaced. If you want to save money, an implant bridge can thrive for a lifetime with the right care, so you\u2019ll never need to pay for a new one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Depending on how many teeth you\u2019re missing, 1-2 dental implants anchor your bridge to your jawbone. With the posts serving as roots, they stimulate your jaw to keep your bone strong to prevent your teeth from moving. You\u2019ll stop common issues associated with tooth loss to save money down the road.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Full Arch of Missing Teeth<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Traditional dentures have been improved over the years, but they will always have their limitations. Implant dentures in Big Pine Key eliminate slipping and irritation while you regain as much as 70% of your biting force. 4 to 10 dental implants anchor your denture to your jawbone, so your smile will look and feel natural. You\u2019ll look younger while also feeling confident your new teeth will stay firmly in place when speaking, chewing, and smiling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Rebuild Your Smile Today<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re ready to enjoy dental implants in Big Time Key, you\u2019re making a smart decision for your oral health and quality of life. You won\u2019t be disappointed when choosing the most reliable option to treat tooth loss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>About Dr. Amanda Cobb<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.keysdentist.com\/meet-amanda-cobb-dmd.html\">Dr. Cobb<\/a> earned her dental degree from the Nova Southeastern University and has completed additional training in periodontics and implant dentistry.
