Replacing Missing Teeth

Options for Replacing Missing Teeth

When you meet someone for the first time, one of the first things this person will notice is your smile. A full set of teeth will enhance your smile and appearance. Unfortunately, though teeth are strong and durable, they can be damaged and fall out due to injury or decay. Replacing missing teeth can restore your smile and allow you to eat and speak normally again.

Options for missing teeth are available at Gresham Advanced Dentistry in Gresham and the surrounding area. You should speak to our team about which options make the most sense for your budget and needs—bridges, dentures, or dental implants. We can provide you with a solution that you can feel good about.

“An evaluation will factor in a person’s medical history, the severity of oral health conditions, and how many teeth are missing to decide on the preferred treatment option.”

Built to Last

The Top Solution for Tooth Loss

Dental implants offer numerous benefits and are considered the top solution for tooth loss. You deserve the best.

Natural-Looking ResultsAvoid artificial-looking prosthetic teeth and opt for dental implants that seamlessly blend with your natural teeth for an authentic smile.

Comfort is KeyDental implants offer a painless and long-lasting solution for missing teeth, allowing you to enjoy your favorite foods without any discomfort.

Simple MaintenanceImplants are a permanent solution that does not require removal. Just like natural teeth, they can be maintained with regular brushing and flossing.

Protect Your Oral HealthImplants closely resemble natural teeth and safeguard your jaw and gums from bone loss and irritation.

Durable and Long-LastingDental implants are a long-term tooth-replacement option. Longevity varies with your health, daily care and regular dental follow-up.

Comparing Your Options

How Long Will Each Option Last?

Durability is a critical factor when choosing a long-term treatment option. The last thing a patient wants is to return to the office every couple of years for more dental work treating the same issues.

Dental Implants

The most durable option. These titanium false teeth can last up to 20 years with proper care and maintenance. Implants also replace a tooth’s roots and can make this system as stable as natural roots.

Dental Bridges

Bridges will not last as long as implants, but this combination of artificial teeth, crowns, and natural teeth can serve a patient well for a decade or longer.

Dentures

A moderately durable option that typically requires replacement every seven to eight years. However, the patient should be able to eat most foods with dentures.

Age & Candidacy

The Role of Age on Replacing Missing Teeth

Regardless of a person’s age, it is vital to have functioning teeth. Missing teeth makes chewing more difficult, can weaken oral health, and can affect appearance. Our staff will consider a person’s age when deciding what option for replacing missing teeth is right.

Older adults may prefer dentures because they take less work to clean. Conversely, young patients are more active and may find themselves in more social situations, so they may prefer implants. Overall oral and physical health is an important criteria for being a good candidate for dental implants.

Making the Right Choice

Choosing the Right Option for You

Patients should consider the extent of their issues. For only a couple of missing teeth, a bridge or implants may make the most sense. For several missing teeth, partial dentures are a good option. Getting full dentures is a common solution to replace all missing teeth.

Patients need to budget wisely too. Implants may be the most long-lasting treatment, but it can be the most expensive as well. People should look at their lifestyle and determine which replacement option fits their needs and preferences.
