Replacing a missing tooth will give you a healthier and better-looking smile that will open doors in your work and social life. There are a handful of options for replacing a missing tooth, but how do you know which one is the best? Read on to learn why dental implants in Edison are the top choice for tooth replacement from your local dentist.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2>What Are My Replacement Options?<\/h2>\n<p>Check out some of the most common tooth replacement options that dentist\u2019s use today:<\/p>\n<h3>Fixed Bridges<\/h3>\n<p>To put it simply, a fixed bridge bridges the gap between one or more missing teeth. The bridge is custom-made to match your natural teeth, so the customizing and placing of this restoration may take a few separate visits to the dentist. Once it\u2019s placed, it will look and function like your natural teeth, and it\u2019ll last for 5 to 15 years depending on care.<\/p>\n<h3>Removeable Partial and Full Dentures<\/h3>\n<p>A removeable partial denture consists of replacement teeth for a small section of your smile. A removeable full denture is used to replace most, if not all of your teeth. These false teeth are connected to a piece of plastic that fits in your mouth. While removeable dentures are great for aesthetic appeal, they can become uncomfortable after wearing them for an extended period of time, and you may have to limit your diet to accommodate your dentures.<\/p>\n<h3>Dental Implants<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.njsmile.com\/implants.html\">Dental implants<\/a> are artificial tooth roots made of titanium that are fused to your jawbone beneath your gums. They serve as a sturdy support for your restoration (false tooth) and they can be used to replace one tooth or many.<\/p>\n<h2>Why Are Dental Implants the Best?<\/h2>\n<p>Dental implants have many benefits, but here are some of the highlights:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>They are the only restoration that looks, feels, and emerges from the gums exactly like your natural teeth.<\/li>\n<li>Dental implants make eating easy. You can eat whatever you want (like your favorite sticky or hard foods) without worrying about damaging your replacement.<\/li>\n<li>You can talk and laugh with confidence. Since your implant becomes a permanent part of your smile, you won\u2019t have to worry about a slipping denture when you\u2019re speaking.<\/li>\n<li>Dental implants are the only restoration that preserves bone health. Missing teeth cause your jaw bone to deteriorate, and this replacement is the only option that preserves your jaw by stimulating the bone.<\/li>\n<li>Last but not least, this replacement option can last a lifetime with proper care. Their durability is unmatched compared to the other options above.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Does it sound like dental implants are right for you? Talk to your dentist in Edison to see if you\u2019d be a good candidate for implants to complete your smile.<\/p>\n<h2>About the Practice<\/h2>\n<p>Dr. Steven J. Resnick and Dr. David S. Rosenfeld are a team of dentists who each bring a wide-range of specialties to the practice.
