Dental Implants Versus Bridges

Dental implant versus bridge (connecting 2 or more teeth together to replace a missing tooth) was a valid debate several years ago.

Dental Implants

With the success, predictability and the aesthetics of the new implant systems, the debate no longer exists. With the exception of some cases, dental implants are superior because they offer a solid, strong, and aesthetic alternative to bridges, and in most cases they rival natural teeth in beauty and longevity.

With implants, decay is no longer a concern, and with the new technology, a missing tooth can be replaced in less than hour. Vast majority of time the procedure is done with local anesthesia and minimal discomfort is reported by patients following the placement of implants. In fact, most patients are amazed at how easy the procedure is.
