Dental Bridges
Dental bridges are designed to replace multiple missing teeth in a row. They’re comprised of two major parts: the free-standing replacement teeth, called pontics, and the anchors, which are dental crowns. The crowns are fused to either side of between one and four pontics, and once they’re cemented to the existing teeth, the bridge will be firmly secured within the mouth. With good care, dental bridges can last for up to 15 years or more, and they can restore both the function and appearance of your smile.
Dentures
We offer two types of dentures: full and partial. Full dentures are designed to secure atop the gumline, using natural suction to remain firmly anchored in place, while partial dentures have a metal or resin base that’s designed to fit like a puzzle piece, replacing missing teeth throughout an arch. Both are designed using high-grade materials, like gum-colored acrylic, porcelain, and ceramic.
Dental Implants
Dental implants can provide an unwavering foundation for crowns, dentures, and bridges to restore the entire structure of missing teeth. They’re small titanium posts that are surgically placed below the gumline and into the jawbone to replace the roots of teeth. Due to their biocompatible nature, they’re able to fuse with the bone and keep it from eroding with time. Once this process occurs, Dr. Mackie can secure a dental bridge, crown, or denture to the implants to restore any number of missing teeth within your smile.
