Multiple-teeth implants provide a unique dental solution that can restore your smile, balance your bite, and stop remaining teeth from shifting. Whereas missing teeth may cause difficulty in eating and speaking, multiple-teeth implants from Dentist of Long Beach can help you resume your normal activities as soon as possible!
There are four main ways that cosmetic dentists can replace several teeth at once including multiple-teeth implants, an implant-supported bridge, a fixed bridge, and a removable partial denture.
Multiple-teeth implants provide a permanent dental solution for individuals who are missing several teeth. Essentially, the implant serves as a substitute for each tooth that is missing and has three parts: a biocompatible post, an abutment, and a dental prosthesis.
The post assumes the function of the missing tooth’s root. It is carefully inserted into the jawbone and is typically made of titanium, which is biocompatible.
The abutment serves as the connecting point between the post and dental prosthesis, and it is also usually constructed of titanium.
Essentially, the dental prosthesis is the substitute tooth. It may be crafted of porcelain, porcelain integrated with metal, or gold.
Although a bit more difficult to keep clean, another implant option for patients at Dentist of Long Beach is to receive an implant-supported bridge. This is an affordable solution where two implants are screwed into the jaw and space is left in lieu of additional implants. The bridge consists of the substitute teeth, which are connected to the abutment crowns and securely attached to the implants.
