Your Tooth Replacement Options

Whether you’ve lost a single tooth, several teeth, or an entire arch of teeth, it’s essential that you restore your smile as soon as possible. When a tooth is lost, your ability to speak clearly, consume a varied diet, and smile with confidence are all adversely impacted. Over time, one lost tooth can lead surrounding teeth to shift out of alignment, place excess pressure on specific teeth that increases risk for damage, and cause supportive tissues to diminish, which increases the risk for further tooth loss.
