WHY CHOOSE FRANKFORT SMILES DENTAL

Tooth Replacement in Frankfort

What Involves Tooth Replacement?

Tooth replacement encompasses a range of dental procedures designed to restore the functionality and appearance of missing teeth. Options include dental implants, which offer a permanent and natural-looking solution; dental bridges, which fill gaps by anchoring artificial teeth to adjacent natural teeth; and removable dentures, which provide a versatile and affordable choice for replacing multiple teeth.

These solutions not only enhance a person’s smile but also improve chewing efficiency, speech clarity, and overall oral health. By addressing tooth loss, patients can regain confidence and prevent issues like bone loss or shifting teeth, ensuring long-term dental wellness.

Partial vs. Full Dentures

Partial dentures are designed for patients who still have some natural teeth remaining and are used to fill gaps, often attaching to adjacent teeth with clasps or precision attachments. They are customized to blend seamlessly with the existing teeth, preserving oral functionality and aesthetics.

In contrast, full dentures replace an entire arch of teeth when no natural teeth remain, resting on the gums for support. While partial dentures prevent remaining teeth from shifting, full dentures restore complete functionality and appearance in cases of total tooth loss.

Both options offer improved chewing, speech, and confidence for patients.

Choosing between partial and full dentures depends on the extent of tooth loss and the patient’s specific oral health needs, ensuring a tailored solution for a natural and comfortable smile.

Implants

Dental implants are a permanent tooth replacement solution that involves surgically placing a titanium post into the jawbone to act as an artificial tooth root. Topped with a natural-looking crown, implants restore both function and appearance while preventing bone loss and maintaining facial structure. They are durable and long-lasting.

Bridges

Dental bridges are a fixed tooth replacement option used to fill gaps created by one or more missing teeth. Anchored to adjacent healthy teeth or dental implants, bridges consist of artificial teeth that restore the look and function of your smile. They help maintain proper alignment, improve chewing, and prevent remaining teeth from shifting.

Dentures

Dentures are removable appliances designed to replace missing teeth, providing a natural-looking and functional solution. Available as full or partial sets, they restore the ability to chew, speak clearly, and maintain facial structure. Modern dentures are comfortable, customizable, and an affordable option for tooth replacement.

After so many years of fear of going to the dentist, I'm not scared anymore. It was by chance that I went to Frankfort Smiles because of a cavity and a friend recommended them. It's a comfortable casual environment & it feels like I'm visiting friends.
