What Happens If I Have A Missing Tooth?
Whether you lose a single tooth or have multiple missing teeth, either by injury, disease or tooth decay, the actual bone around the missing tooth begins to weaken and deteriorate over time, resulting in your remaining adjacent teeth shifting into its place. This can negatively impact your overall dental health, natural teeth and gum tissue, resulting in discomfort, chewing imbalances and toothaches.
But at Kensington Dental Care, you can be assured that a dental professional will thoroughly examine your teeth, ensuring that your dental history is considered when creating various treatment options and solutions.

-
With dental bridges, an artificial tooth or teeth are used to permanently replace missing teeth and are typically made from porcelain, metal or a combination of both. Dental bridges are a fixed alternative to dentures and are designed to blend in naturally with your surrounding teeth.
-
In addition to replacing any number of missing teeth, removable dentures (false teeth) can also be used to fill in your mouth and face’s contours, which tend to indent when multiple teeth are missing, providing you with a natural look and feel. Modern dentures represent one of the best missing teeth replacement options for multiple tooth loss.
-
Dental implants are often suitable for those wanting a single or multiple tooth replacement that looks and feels just like a natural one. Dental implants are a long-term solution which allow you to chew, brush and smile without affecting your other teeth. For single tooth replacement, implants provide the most permanent and natural-looking results.
