Dental Bridges
Dental bridges are comprised of two crowns placed between free standing replacement teeth, called pontics. They’re able to replace anywhere from one to four missing teeth in a row, as the crowns are secured to the two natural teeth on either side of the gap. Once the restoration is attached, with the proper care and a good oral hygiene routine, a bridge can last anywhere from 10 to 15 years.

Dental Implants
Dental implants take the best of traditional restorations like dentures and bridges and combine them with a modern technique of attaching them to surgically implanted, biocompatible implants that are used to replace the root structure of missing teeth. The implants are made from titanium, which is a biocompatible material that naturally fuses with the jawbone when it’s placed, creating a strong, reliable, and stable foundation for your restoration to be attached to.
