Coral Gables and Doral, FL's Leader in Teeth Replacement
Our teeth play an essential role in our lives. They chew and digest food, allow us to speak clearly, provide shape to our face, and most importantly, radiate joy from our bright smiles.
The National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) reports 92 percent of adults between the ages of 20 to 64 have tooth decay. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, among adults from 35 to 44 years old, 69 percent are missing teeth because of decay. Thankfully, the advancement of dental technology has produced several dental solutions for missing teeth.
Dental Implants provide the most durability, strength and effectiveness. A dental implant is a surgical procedure in which a titanium fixture, usually in the shape of a screw, is implanted into the jaw bone to permanently replace a missing or hopelessly damaged tooth.
Advantages of Dental Implants:
Resembles a natural tooth, increased aesthetic
Stable and comfortable
Ideal for single tooth replacements
Up to decades long lifespan
No affect on surrounding teeth
Decreased maintenance
Disadvantages of Dental Implants:
Requires a minor surgical procedure
Longer process
Longer healing time (several months)
Expensive
2. Fixed Bridges
A fixed bridge, generally an artificial tooth or dental prosthetic, extends across the gap caused by one or more missing teeth and is bonded to the adjacent teeth with dental cement.
Increased failure rate and less predictable than implants
Do not correct a bone loss in the jaw.
Do not last as long as implants
3. Removable Partial Dentures
Removable partial dentures consist of replacement teeth attached to pink or gum-colored plastic bases.
Advantages of Removable Partial Dentures
Budget-friendly
No surgery or procedure required
Minor, rare alterations to existing teeth
Disadvantages of Removable Partial Dentures
Removable
Less aesthetic and stability
Less functionality
Decreased comfort
High maintenance cleaning
