When one, multiple, or all of your teeth go missing due to oral health problems or trauma, it’s crucial to have them replaced before they take a serious toll on your confidence and mental and physical health.

Why Choose Hyland Dental for Replacing Missing Teeth?

Dental Bridges

Dental bridges are a prosthetic made from customized dental crowns and free-standing replacement teeth, called pontics. The crowns act as an anchor to hold the bridge in place by being placed on the existing teeth at either end of a space in your smile, while the pontics fill that gap in, completing your arch of teeth. They can be made from a variety of materials, including porcelain and ceramic, and can last for over a decade with the proper maintenance.

Dentures

For patients who are missing several or all of their teeth along an arch, dentures are a tried-and-true tooth replacement option that can restore the function and feeling of the mouth. They’re made from a gum-colored acrylic base that holds ceramic, custom color-matched teeth in place. Depending on whether you receive full or partial dentures, they will either stay in place by harnessing natural suction in the mouth or fit between your existing natural teeth.

Dental Implants

Dental implants are a more modern, advanced tooth replacement option that’s great for patients who are looking for a more stable, permanent alternative to traditional bridges and dentures. The implants are surgically placed below the gumline to restore the missing root structure of the teeth and hold a prosthetic in place. Due to their biocompatible properties, they’re able to offer a wide array of unique benefits, including the prevention of jawbone deterioration and preservation of your natural facial structure.
