There are many ways to replace teeth. Some of them require oral surgery, some of them a mere fitting and some dental prostheses. Dental implants are the only way to replace all of the parts of the teeth and to prevent tooth loss as a condition, but many other tooth replacement methods exist, and all of them will restore the appearance and the function of a full head of teeth.

Teeth Replacement in Holborn Camden London, W1

Your mouth can only work properly if all of the elements of a mouth are in place. If you have a tooth missing, you must get it replaced to stop further damages from occurring. A missing tooth can cause further complications, among them losing more teeth, back and neck pain, aching of the jaw, pains, indigestion, and speech impediments. There is also a social stigma with having gaps in your teeth, so your confidence and social standing may also plummet if you have a missing tooth. Here are the ways you can replace missing teeth:

All-on-4 Dental Implants

Dental Implants

Dental implants consist of a dental implant that goes into the jaw, an abutment, and a crown. It is essentially an artificial tooth root, the only method of tooth replacement that will stop more teeth from going missing because it replaces all of the parts of the teeth, thereby preventing the disintegration of the alveolus.

Dental Crowns

A dental crown replaces the tooth's visible portion, thereby giving back chewing function and can help with speech impediments. However, it is powerless to stop tooth loss from worsening and more teeth missing because it does not replace the tooth roots.

Dental Bridges

Dental bridges are a row of crowns meant to replace one or more teeth missing in a row. Bridges are not just aesthetic: they are needed for regular chewing functions; otherwise, you may start to experience damage to your jaw.

Dentures

Dentures are for when there are no or hardly any teeth on an entire row. Dentures can come in removable or fixed kinds and can be stabilised using dental implants or can be adhered to or use the force of suction to stay in place. The dentist will take your dental impression and get the dentures fitted. You will have to go back regularly to get them refitted.

Implant Supported Denture

Due to their stability and durability, only four implants are enough to support an entire denture, so even if you have lost most of your teeth, you can still benefit from the advantages of dental implants with an implant-supported denture. An implant-supported denture can give you back the ability to chew and smile like you would with your natural teeth.

In a rare oral surgical procedure, sinus lifts are performed only on the upper jaw and the teeth near the sinus cavity. If a tooth has been missing for a long time, the tissue between the sinuses and the oral cavity will become thinner and unable to house a dental implant. The dental implants may poke out into the sinus cavity in these cases. This result is unhealthy and potentially dangerous, leading to a higher risk of infections. This is where a sinus lift comes in.

Sometimes there is not enough bone material in your jaw to have a dental implant; in these cases, a bone graft is necessary. After losing a tooth, the alveolus disintegrates slowly over time, and the jaw's bone density drops dramatically; if you want to replace the tooth, you will have to bone graft. This invasive but necessary surgery requires an X-ray and a preliminary hygiene session.
