Ways to replace missing teeth

There are a number of ways to replace missing teeth, some are better but cost more money, treatments include a single implant, dental bridge, dentures or implant supported dentures.

Which way is the best for you. Let’s find out.

Tooth decay or damage

Teeth go missing for a number of reasons, bad decay or damage are the principal causes, missing teeth mean that there are gaps between teeth.

Where there are gaps issues arise, teeth tend to move into those gaps, teeth grinding can cause problems, your bite can change.

A change in bite means that everyday chewing and eating of food causes more wear and tear on your teeth.

Those gaps in your teeth cause the jawbone to regress so jawbone growth is affected, the mouth can begin to sag and the face appears older.

Under a general anaesthetic, a small titanium post is positioned through the gum and into the jawbone.

It is allowed to grow into the jawbone over a period of about four months, following which an abutment is screwed into the post.

A new tooth or crown is then attached to the top of the abutment, the new tooth looks and feels so like a natural tooth it’s hard to tell the difference.

A dental bridge

When you are looking at ways to replace missing teeth, a dental bridge is a more cost effective way to fill those gaps that are left behind.

This way or treatment is quite popular with our patients, unlike implants there is no surgery involved.

During a dental bridge treatment our dedicated team in Perfect Smile Hungary use the teeth on either side of the gaps to support bridgework.

The bridgework or dental bridge acts as a secure place where a set of replacement teeth are placed and fixed permanently.

The new set of replacement teeth or crowns are quite durable, secure and they look great and natural.

Cost wise this way to replace missing teeth is priced at between €690-€3,500 per bridge with two crowns in most Irish clinics.

Each unit or tooth on the bridge costs from €550 upwards, this way can turn out to be rather expensive in Ireland.

Dentures

For many years dentures have been one of the cheapest ways to replace missing teeth, as a way to treat the issues, dentures take the shortest time.

There is no need for surgery, no implants or dental crowns to place, all that us needed is a dental impression from which dentures are created.

The whole treatment can be completed in a few weeks, dentures can be made to replace single or multiple missing teeth.

Having said all if that, dentures do come with their own shortcomings, Ill fitting, uncomfortable, falling out, and they have to be cleaned every night after you take them out.

Implant supported dentures

Implant supported dentures are one of the ways to replace missing teeth that gives more security compared to dentures.

This type of denture is secured by the implants that are inserted through the gums into the jawbone, they don’t rest on the gums unlike a traditional denture.

The biggest advantage is the denture is more stable and it fits more securely.

This advantage means more comfort, better chewing functionality and you feel more confident because they are permanent and wont move.

Cost wise, implant supported dentures prices will be determined by how many teeth are missing and how many implants are required.

A ballpark figure based on dental clinics in Dublin is somewhere between €2995-€6500-€14,950 per arch.

How much the final bill will be will depend on a number of factors that include how many teeth are gone, how many implants are necessary and other factors.

The options that you have are to look abroad for ways to replace missing teeth where the costs are more affordable.
