Discussing your Teeth Replacement and Restoration Options with your Dentist in Dubai

Share

Many adults go through that period in life where they have to learn to live without their original teeth. Most people experience this due to accidents, injuries, and dental diseases that cause unrepairable damage. However, thanks to the advancements in dentistry, you can easily get your missing teeth replaced to regain your beautiful smile. In this article, we have highlighted the most common dental replacement and restoration procedures that could be the best fit for your dental needs.

Dentures, Bridges, or Implants

When it comes to teeth replacement and restoration, there are many options available. However, not every option is designed to be the perfect smile enhancing the procedure for your teeth. Unfortunately, this is not a kind of decision that you can make on your own. You need to consult with a dentist who will recommend the best treatment option for you. Based on his examination, he may refer you to an Implantologist or Prosthodontist if required.

Here are a couple of procedures that can help you restore your missing teeth:

  1. Dental implants:

    A dental implant is the best solution for replacing a missing tooth. A dental implant in Dubai consists of a titanium screw which acts as an artificial root and is inserted into your jaw bone by the Implantologist. An attachment called abutment will be attached to the implant screw and a porcelain crown that mimics your natural teeth will be fitted on this.

  1. Dental Bridges:

    Also known as the fixed partial denture. A dental bridge can also replace a missing tooth or teeth. The dentist or prosthodontist would have to grind the neighboring teeth on either side of the gap and then crowns are made to fit these teeth and a separate crown or crowns are attached to them to close the gap. While porcelain bridges can be cheaper, they are not the ideal option as it requires your healthy teeth to be trimmed to anchor the crowns over the gap.

  1. Dentures:

    Acrylic dentures can also be made to replace a single or multiple or even all missing teeth. The problem with the dentures is inconvenience caused to remove them during the night and to clean them. Dentures also get loose over a period of time and will have to be replaced.
