Since they replace the roots of the missing teeth, they offer a wide range of benefits, like additional stability, comfort, and longevity. Dental implants are the next best thing after natural teeth! The number of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.smilecastlerock.com\/dental-implants.html\">dental implants<\/a> you need will require depends on the number of teeth you are missing and where they are located in your mouth. Continue reading to learn more!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Missing One Tooth<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are missing a single tooth due to an injury, decay, or an oral health issue, dental implants are an excellent solution. Replacing one tooth usually requires a single dental implant and dental crown to fill the space. This will preserve the underlying bone tissue and prevent the surrounding teeth from shifting out of their places. Your dental crown is customized to fit perfectly in your mouth, so it will be the exact size, shape, and color needed to blend in with the rest of your teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Missing Multiple Teeth<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are missing multiple or all of your teeth, this process will look a little bit different. Dental implants are likely still a viable option. Depending on the number of teeth you are missing and their locations, you may need to get an implant bridge or implant denture. For multiple consecutive missing teeth, a dental bridge can be supported by dental implants. If you are missing multiple teeth in different locations of an arch, an implant-supported partial denture can be used to complete your smile. If you are missing all of the teeth in an arch, a series of dental implants can be strategically placed to support a full denture. Depending on your unique situation, a plan can be created just for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Can You Find Out How Many Dental Implants You Need?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The only way to know for sure how many dental implants you need is to schedule a consultation with your dentist. During this visit, they will examine your smile to determine if you are a good candidate for the procedure, or if you need preliminary procedures before you can replace your missing teeth with dental implants. They will put together a plan, including determining the number of dental implants you need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether you are missing one tooth or all of your teeth, dental implants can help you get your smile back. By attending a consultation with your dentist, you can work toward a complete smile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At Smile Castle Rock, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.smilecastlerock.com\/meet-dr-radz.html\">Dr. Gary Radz<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.smilecastlerock.com\/meet-dr-thompson.html\">Dr. Glenn Thompson<\/a> work together to treat patients in the Castle Rock community.
