What is the most suitable treatment for missing teeth?
Q. I am going to get four teeth removed because of gum disease and will be getting a partial denture soon after when the gums are sorted. He then said that some time after that I can get dental implants to cplete the job. I am unsure about implants and was wondering if a bridge may be a suitable alternative to the implants? Which would you say is the bestter option for me seen as I have had gum disease, well still have it.
A.
It is difficult to assess your situation. Usually if you are a candidate for implants they are planned initially. Implants are your best option but depending on what teeth remain and the condition of those teeth bridges may be considered. Speak to your dentist about the expected treatment.
