Missing Teeth

WE OFFER EFFICIENT SOLUTIONS FOR MISSING TEETH IN NOTTING HILL

A smile is incomplete when teeth are missing. Not only does tooth loss affect the appearance of the smile, but it also leaves you at risk for tooth decay and chewing difficulty. Depending on the location and extent of tooth loss, speech may also be impacted. In our Notting Hill dental office, we provide efficient restoration with bridges, dentures, and dental implants.

Dr. Fahami and the Notting Hill Dental Clinic team have years of experience in fitting bridges. This conventional treatment may be ideal for patients who need to replace one tooth or even several adjacent teeth. This prosthetic includes two dental crowns and one or more artificial teeth to replace those that have been lost. The crowns are affixed to natural teeth on each side of the open space providing functional stability. We make dental bridges from metal, ceramic, or a combination of the two depending on what is best suited to patients’ needs.

DENTURES

Complete tooth loss may occur for several reasons. In many cases, it is not necessarily that all teeth naturally fall out, but that disease or a genetic condition affects teeth to such an extent that extraction becomes necessary. When complete replacement is needed, the conventional treatment is to restore a nice appearance and function with full dentures. These prosthetics may also be made with metal and ceramics. Due to our use of only the highest quality materials, dentures look very natural, with gums and artificial teeth shaded to complement your own complexion. Teeth are also precisely sized in order to fit comfortably and attractively into the smile. Full dentures may be stabilized with denture adhesive and can be removed daily for cleaning.

DENTAL IMPLANTS

One of the most efficient ways to replace missing teeth is with dental implants. Different from a bridge or denture, the implant is intended for the replication of natural tooth structure. Dental implants do not replace teeth. Rather, they replace roots. This method of tooth replacement has evolved from single restorations to multiple and now even to full mouth restoration. Dr. Fahami has treated hundreds of patients with dental implants, enabling them to regain confidence in speaking, smiling, and in their chewing abilities after experiencing tooth loss.

Whether you choose a dental bridge, dentures, or dental implants to replace missing teeth, we support you in your efforts for ongoing oral health by demonstrating proper hygiene techniques based on your chosen restoration.
