Replace Missing Teeth – Langley, WA
Getting Rid of Gaps in Your Smile
You could end up losing a tooth – or even multiple teeth – for any number of reasons. At first, you may think you can learn to live with the empty space, but in terms of oral health, it’s typically in your best interest to have your teeth replaced as soon as possible. Teeth can shift into the open space creating food traps which often cause cavities. Also, the bone in the area can melt away over time, causing recession and making it difficult to get a tooth replacement in the future. If you need to replace missing teeth in Langley, give the practice a call; Dr. Giswold will be happy to help you explore your options.

Dental Implants
Dental implants are considered to be the best tooth replacement solution by a wide margin by both dentists and patients around the world. The implant posts are inserted directly into your jawbone so that they can support a new tooth/teeth on top. Not only will the posts improve the chewing power of your replacement teeth, but they will also stimulate the jaw in order to stop bone loss from occurring. We can help you figure out whether dental implants are the right choice for your smile if you set up a consultation at the office.

Dental Bridges
Filling in a single gap in your smile is often a job for a dental bridge. Creating a bridge involves combining two dental crowns with a number of replacement teeth, which are also known as pontics. The crowns will be anchored to your natural teeth in order to ensure that the bridge stays in place; the pontics between the crowns will fill in the empty space in your grin, thus improving your ability to speak clearly, eat a variety of foods, and smile confidently.
Dentures & Partial Dentures
Dentures are well-known for being able to replace multiple teeth at once. At the office, we can combine beautiful, durable dentures with long-lasting dental implants. The result is a sturdy new smile that won’t slip out of place at inopportune moments. When dentures are attached to dental implants, they are often designed to stay anchored in place; this allows you to brush your replacement teeth as if they were your real ones.
