So there are a lot of reasons people lose teeth, you know, it can be because of decay, it can be because they break, maybe periodontal disease. There are different reasons for that. I mean, one thing we can do to help you replace those is through using crowns and bridges. Bridges usually are a series of crowns that are fused together. And so they’re cemented onto the two teeth on either side of the space, and there’s kind of a crown that just hovers over that space there. I mean, crowns are usually used for broken teeth or teeth that have had large fillings or fracture lines or something like that. They’re used to restore the tooth. So when you lose a tooth, you know, you also lose function. And so you might lose the ability to chew effectively on a certain side, or you might be putting pressure on other teeth, which could be causing damage to those teeth. So crowns and bridges can be used to replace those missing teeth so that you’re functioning properly and you’re not putting undue stress on other teeth, and also for cosmetic purposes. If you have a missing tooth towards the front, obviously that’s gonna help from a cosmetic perspective as well.
