Tooth loss is a very common problem nowadays. Missing teeth can cause problems with eating and speech as well. Having healthy teeth is very important for your overall health, smile, and self-confidence. So, different types of tooth replacements exist for you to have a healthy smile again. The three major options available today include dentures, dental bridges, and implants. Choosing between these different types can be a difficult decision to make. So, we will discuss the different types of tooth replacement, and the pros & cons of each one.
Dentures are usually made of an acrylic base and artificial teeth. Today, dentures are the least common compared to the other types of tooth replacement because they are removable, not strong enough to support eating and speaking, and need to be replaced every 7-10 years. There are two types of dentures; partial dentures and complete dentures. Partial dentures are used to replace a few missing teeth.
