A dental implant is something that is used to replace a missing tooth. When you get a dental implant the doctor will put a screw into the bone where your missing tooth once was. On top of the screw, the dentist will then put the crown or fake tooth.

Dentures are one alternative that you can choose instead of dental implants. Dentures are fake teeth that are removable. Dentures need to be removed every night and cleaned frequently. Even though they require more care, they do look good cosmetically.

A bridge is another alternative to dental implants. A bridge is a crown that covers three different teeth. The main crown is the one in the middle, and the other two crowns go on top of the teeth on each side of the middle one.

Overall, if you are missing teeth you have a few options. Dental implants are a great option because they are permanent.
