Intermittent teeth, also known as missing or gaps in the smile, can have a significant impact on a person’s self-esteem and overall oral health. Fortunately, there are various treatments available that can help fill in the gaps and restore the smile.
Here are some of the most popular options for treating intermittent teeth:
Dental Bridges: A dental bridge is a permanent tooth replacement option that consists of a false tooth (or pontic) that is attached to two dental crowns. The crowns are placed on the healthy teeth on either side of the gap, which hold the bridge in place. Dental bridges can be made from a variety of materials, including porcelain, ceramic, and zirconia.
Dental Implants: Dental implants are titanium posts that are surgically placed into the jawbone to act as a replacement for the missing tooth root. A dental crown is then attached to the implant, restoring the appearance of the missing tooth. Implants are a long-lasting, natural-looking solution for missing teeth and can even help preserve the jawbone and prevent further tooth loss.
Dentures: Dentures are removable devices that can replace one or more missing teeth. They can be complete (full set) or partial (replacing only a few missing teeth). Dentures are made of acrylic or a combination of acrylic and metal and are custom-fitted to the individual’s mouth.
Orthodontic Treatment: Orthodontic treatment, such as braces or clear aligners, can help correct the position of teeth and create a more even bite, reducing the appearance of gaps. Orthodontic treatment can also help improve the overall health and function of the bite.
