Prompt replacement can restore functionality and the appearance of his smile Losing a tooth as an adult can significantly affect both your oral health and confidence. Fortunately, restorative dentistry offers several solutions to re-complete your smile and improve its functionality. At Aesthetic Dentistry of Georgetown, our outstanding dentists, who have trained at prestigious institutions, specialize in providing personalized restorative treatments to meet your unique needs.

Dental Implants: A Permanent Solution

Dental implants are considered the gold standard for replacing missing teeth. An implant consists of a titanium post surgically placed into your jawbone, acting as an artificial tooth root. Once the implant integrates with the bone, a custom crown is attached, completing your restoration. Dental implants are durable, natural-looking, and help preserve jawbone health by preventing bone loss.

Dental Bridges: Filling the Gap

A dental bridge is another effective option for replacing one or more missing teeth. It consists of a false tooth (or teeth) anchored by crowns placed on the adjacent natural teeth or implants. Bridges are a fixed solution, meaning they stay securely in place and do not require removal for cleaning. This option restores the appearance of your smile and helps maintain proper alignment of surrounding teeth.

Dentures: Versatile and Customizable

If you are missing multiple teeth or an entire arch, dentures are a reliable choice. Partial dentures are used when some natural teeth remain, while full dentures replace an entire row of teeth. Modern dentures are lightweight and designed for comfort and functionality. At Aesthetic Dentistry of Georgetown, we craft custom dentures that look natural and feel secure.

Each tooth replacement option has unique advantages. Dental implants provide unparalleled stability and longevity, while bridges offer a fixed solution without the need for surgery. Dentures, on the other hand, are a cost-effective choice for patients needing to replace several teeth.
