BRIDGES & ANCHORED DENTURES

What are “implant-supported” Crowns, Bridges & Anchored Dentures?
A dental implant is a foundation on which a crown, bridge or anchored denture is placed.

What is best to replace a lost tooth?
For the replacement of an individual tooth, a Crown (a false tooth) is made to perfectly blend in with the colour, shape and size of the surrounding teeth. This crown is then permanently attached to an implant.  This gives you one permanent tooth on each implant.

What is best to replace several missing teeth in a row?
A bridge allows multiple teeth to be supported by fewer implants. For a replacement of several teeth, a bridge is made to perfectly blend in with the adjacent teeth.  The bridge is connected to the implants. With the bridge securely connected to your jaw,  the bridge both looks and functions like natural teeth.

What is best to replace all of the upper teeth or lower teeth?
If you need to replace all of your upper teeth or lower teeth, an Anchored Denture can be created which attaches to the implants.  The Anchored Denture is used to replace the entire upper or lower arch of teeth.  Because the dental implants integrate with the jawbone, an anchored / implant-supported denture tends to be comfortable and stable, allowing you to bite and chew naturally.
