A single tooth can be lost in the front of the mouth and restored in a number of ways: • Moving teeth into the spaceOrthodontic treatment can be viable for young individuals, but more complex in adults. Itdepends on whether the adjacent teeth are of the right shape and in the right position.• Removable Partial DentureMain disadvantage that it is removable and may come away unexpectedly. It can cause further gum disease of tooth decay if not maintained correctly.• Adhesive BridgesThese are secured by bonding to the adjacent teeth on either side and are effective at replacing a missing tooth, but might not last indefinitely especially when there is a strong bite.• Conventional BridgeA predictable procedure, which requires the cutting down of healthy teeth on either side of a gap in order to support the bridge. This is a major disadvantage because it involves destroying healthy tooth tissue.• ImplantsAn implant replaces a missing tooth and is an independent restoration. It has the advantage that it stimulates bone to stay and get stronger. This is something that will not happen with any other option. Implants are usually a more cost-effective and satisfactory option.

The process is based on a process of integration of titanium or zirconia to the surrounding bone. This allows the new replacement tooth or teeth to have a very strong and stable base, maintaining the surrounding bone. This is the reason why implants give you the comfort, functionality and beauty of healthy teeth. In order to understand how implants work it is important to appreciate the way in which healing takes place. When a tooth is taken out it leaves a hole in the gum which fills up with a blood clot. Within two months the hole in the jaw is covered with gum, slowly over the next six months the bone fills the hole completely. The healing of implants depends on this natural process. Traditional dentistry, which relies on bridges, partial and complete dentures, simply cannot compare to the “good as new” quality that advanced implant technology can give you. Teeth are rarely lost today, because every effort is made to save them. There are a number of reasons why teeth may need to be taken out.• Dental DiseaseWhen very little of the tooth remains because of a lot of decay. For example root filled teeth with failed post crowns or broken teeth.• Gum DiseaseThe supporting bone around the tooth is lost due to pocketing and infection, in some cases even leading to tooth mobility.• Unsuccessful Root canal therapyTeeth that have been root canal treated can be prone to persistent infection resulting in a poor prognosis and are often removed.Implant therapy is the replacement of the root with an artificial root that is made from titanium or zirconia. The procedure can be used to replace one tooth, several teeth or all the teeth. <
