Crowns, Bridges and Dentures are all solutions provided at Alton Dental for clients with missing teeth. Filling gaps inside the mouth is not a recommended procedure purely for cosmetic reasons due to the possibility of a host of unexpected problems arising.
Two or three missing teeth may not appear to the untrained eye as a serious problem; however, Alton Dental’s dentistry professional dentists know that this will cause a strain on teeth adjacent to the gap. Missing teeth can also affect the bite by forcing remaining teeth to lean into the empty space, small gaps such as this may encourage food residue to become stuck, causing decay and even gum disease. Smiling now?
