Tooth Replacement Options
Although researchers recently discovered that low-power lasers are capable of stimulating cells to regenerate dental tissue, many patients who are missing teeth will have to explore more traditional methods of filling the gap in their smiles. Cincinnati dentists Dr. Tara Hardin and Dr. Gary Hardin can replace lost teeth by combining an artistic eye with advanced technology.
If you’re missing the entire structure of one or more teeth, there are several different replacement options to choose from. Which one might work best for you will depend on your restoration needs and your cosmetic goals.
Tooth replacement services at Hardin Advanced Dentistry include:
- Dental implants
- Full, partial, or implant-supported dentures
- Fixed bridges
Dental implants are often the ideal option for replacing lost teeth because they are the only type of restoration that completely restores the structure of a natural tooth above and below the gum line. Once the artificial tooth root has bonded with the jaw bone, implants have the same function and stability as a natural tooth. Complete the restoration with a porcelain crown and the apparatus will look like a natural tooth, too.
