Dental bridges and dental implants are quite different. The bridges are used to bridge a gap of missing teeth (loaded with crowns) where as the dental implants will replace the roots of teeth to securely anchor in the restoration on top. The restorations that go on top of the implants will depend on your exact case and how many missing teeth you have, and where the gaps fall into your mouth.
What Braces Will Be The Best Option For Me?
We offer an extensive range of braces that can meet a wide range of patients needs. Braces have evolved over the years and there are now a number of systems that can be used to straighten your teeth. Each brace has been designed with certain problems to treat, whether it be crowding, bite problems (over bite, under bite etc) or spacing issues. The exact brace which will be the most suitable for you will be identified at the free consultation. In some cases, there may be a couple of options that can be used to treat your individual case.
What Is A Dental Implant?
Dental implants can be used to replace a missing tooth or multiple missing teeth. The implants are placed into the jawbone and then integrate with the patients jaw to securely hold the new tooth/teeth in place. On top of the implant, the restoration will be securely attached. Depending on your exact case, the final restoration will vary (crowns, bridges, dentures etc).
