Multiple MissinG TEETH
There are three courses of action your dentist can take to fix or replace your damaged or missing teeth. He or she can either use your adjacent natural teeth to fabricate a bridge, or removable partial denture. Alternatively one or more implants may be used to fabricated a implant-supported bridge.
Modern dental restorations supported by dental implants look and feel like natural teeth. Their color, shape, and contours mimic those of natural teeth.

Dental implants are generally considered the most conservative and long-lasting treatment for replacing missing teeth as they do not rely on the adjacent teeth for support or retention. Additionally, dental implants are not susceptible to decay like natural teeth are. However, it is still important to see your dentist regularly to ensure the health of your dental implants and prevent complications.

The number of implants needed to replace your missing teeth will be determined by your dentist depending on the situation and risk factors involved.
