<strong>Missing</strong> <strong>Tooth</strong> <strong>Replacement</strong> <strong>Options</strong><br />
People lose their natural teeth for a variety of reasons, including accidental trauma to the face,<br />
dental diseases, and tooth decay. Regardless of the reason, having one or more missing teeth<br />
can affect the appearance of your smile as well as your oral health. Fortunately, Oak Brook<br />
Smiles offers you several missing tooth replacement options.<br />
Removable Dentures, Dental Bridges, and Dental Implants<br />
Removable dentures are artificial teeth attached to a plate and wires. Dr. Haque sizes the plate<br />
to fit securely in the roof of your mouth. This option is appropriate regardless of how many of<br />
your natural teeth you are missing. You can eat and speak with them in, but must remove them<br />
for cleaning and when you go to sleep at night.<br />
Dental bridges rely on the support of nearby teeth and are non-removable. Dr. Haque adheres<br />
metal brackets to the back of the teeth to the immediate left and right of the one that is<br />
missing. He then places a dental adhesive to hold the supporting bridge in place. The<br />
replacement tooth sits on top of your gum line. The materials used to place the dental bridge<br />
are quite visible, especially with front teeth. Those who want a completely seamless<br />
appearance may wish to consider dental implants.<br />
Dental implants replace both the tooth and its roots. After Dr. Haque installs your new tooth<br />
roots, you may have to wait several weeks or months for the area to heal and for the new roots<br />
to fuse with your existing ones. We can provide you with removable dentures in the meantime<br />
if you are interested. After Dr. Haque is satisfied that sufficient healing has taken place, he<br />
attaches the replacement teeth to their new roots. Your smile looks entirely natural since no<br />
one can see brackets, wiring, plates, or the artificial tooth roots below your gum line. Patient<br />
satisfaction is highest with dental implants for this reason.<br />
Life is too short to hold back your smile because you feel self-conscious about it. Please contact<br />
Oak Brook Smiles today to request an appointment with Dr. Haque to discuss your missing<br />
tooth replacement options.<br />
