Few incidents have greater impact on dental health and personal appearance than tooth loss. When one or more teeth are missing, the remaining teeth can drift out of position, which can lead to a change in the bite, the loss of additional teeth, decay and gum disease.
When tooth loss has occurred, Dr. Fitzgerald may recommend the placement of a bridge. A bridge is one or more replacement teeth anchored by one or more teeth on each side of the missing tooth. The anchor teeth usually require crowns. In certain very specific situations, it may only be necessary to bond to the adjacent teeth. Your options may include Dental Implants.
