When your natural teeth are missing due to injury, decay, or other reasons, your ability to eat and speak normally is impacted. Eating becomes difficult, speech will sound different and you may find it difficult to smile with confidence. The good news is that there are two common ways of replacing missing teeth: a partial denture or dental implants with a crown. Both have their own pros and cons; so, let\u2019s take a closer look at each option and see which one is best for you.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Dental implants<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Dental implants are artificial roots that are used to hold a crown or a bridge in place. They are used to replace one or more missing teeth. The implant is placed into the jawbone which then heals around it and becomes a new source of natural tooth root. Implants are able to be used to replace single teeth or even multiple teeth in a single implant. <\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The most common type of dental implant is the endosteal implant. This type of implant is placed into the jawbone under the gum tissue and comes with a screw that is embedded into the jawbone. The second type of implant is an osseointegrated implant. This implant is attached to a titanium screw that is implanted into the jawbone. Once the jawbone has healed around the titanium screw, the implant is placed on the screw and is able to be used to replace a missing tooth.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n

Partial dentures<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

A partial denture is a removable solution for one or more missing teeth. A partial denture replaces your missing teeth with artificial teeth, which are then held in place by a gum-coloured base. This base, also known as \u2018retained\u2019 denture, attaches to your existing healthy teeth to provide extra support. The partial denture can also be held in place by a dental retainer. This is a device that is worn around your jaw and teeth, and clasps onto the teeth to keep the partial denture in place.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

A partial denture is designed and custom-made to fit your mouth, missing teeth and your natural teeth. This is an effective solution for replacing one or more missing teeth, but it is not for everyone. Some patients may find that their bite does not feel natural, others may experience soreness around their gums and irritation from the base.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n
