Choose dental implants to replace a missing tooth
 

Losing a tooth by accident or by extraction is not the end of the matter.  When a tooth is missing, the resulting gap will allow nearby teeth to tilt or drift from their normal position, and the teeth above the gap will move downward.

Aside from the obvious cosmetic problem, the changed positions of these teeth can lead to severe bite problems causing jaw pain and headaches. As adjacent teeth collapse into the space they are often lost in a domino fashion.

Missing teeth should be replaced to keep other teeth in their normal position.  This can be done by Dr. Epstein with a fixed bridge or a dental implant.  Both of these treatments offer a good functional and cosmetic result. If many teeth are missing, a partial or complete denture is an economical way to replace the missing ones and to preserve the remaining ones.

Please call our office at (203) DEN-TIST with any questions you may have about the benefits of replacing missing teeth with bridges or dental implants.
