3-unit bridges have traditionally been used to replace a single missing tooth. A bridge uses the teeth adjacent to the missing tooth to provide support for an artificial tooth that fills in the void left by the missing tooth. Although the goal of a bridge is to restore function and achieve an aesthetically favorable outcome, it does so at the expense of the bone under the replacement tooth. Because that space is no longer stimulated by chewing, bone in that area tends to get resorbed into the body, creating a gap between the replacement tooth and the gums.
Fortunately, a more state-of-the-art solution exists - a dental implant. Dental implants provide an esthetically pleasing single tooth replacement without compromising surrounding teeth. Now you can start over! With man-made, substitute tooth roots, Dr. I. Stephen Brown can offer you a unique and permanent solution to missing teeth that look, feel, and function just like natural teeth. These modern miracles of tooth replacement can be matched exactly to your own teeth, restoring your smile to its optimal state. Dental implants can be your doorway to renewed self-confidence and peace of mind.
This Philadelphia man suffered a fractured front tooth. He did not want his adjacent teeth cut down for crowns
, or to be forced to wear a removable bridge. A dental implant provided him with a functional and cosmetically pleasing tooth replacement. Philadelphia Dental Implant Specialist Dr. Stephen Brown placed a titanium implant in order to attain a superior esthetic result, and since titanium is strong and naturally accepted by the body, the results will be long-term. The patient was incredibly pleased with the outcome.To see more cases like this one or to learn more about Dental Implants Philadelphia, visit Dr. Stephen Brown on the web at http://www.theperiogroup.com/.
