Missing teeth can hold you back from living a full and healthy lifestyle. Missing teeth may cause low self-esteem, but they are also linked to serious oral health and medical conditions. Even a single missing tooth can lead to loss of bone structure, shifting teeth and additional tooth loss creating more complicated and costly dental concerns.
If you are missing teeth it is important to have them replaced as soon as you can to prevent secondary dental health concerns.

Options For Replacing Missing Teeth
Implants
Dental implants are the most natural options for replacing missing teeth. Designed to mimic the natural tooth, dental implants support bone health, bite alignment and overall oral wellness. Dental implants are a permanent solution with over 90% success rate. If you’re looking for a long-term, long-lasting investment that requires little more maintenance than your real teeth, dental implants may be right for you. Dr. Weinstock offers full service, in-house dental implant treatment plans designed to restore your oral health.

Dentures
The most traditional option for replacing a full set or arch of teeth, today’s dentures have improved in fit, form, and comfort. Dr. Weinstock can customize the color and translucency of the denture material to provide a natural-looking dental restoration to replace your missing teeth. Modern dentures may also be secured in place using four or more dental implants. Dr. Weinstock is a prosthodontist with years of advanced training and experience placing successful dental implants. We offer implant secured dentures, partials and All-on-Four, making dental implants a more viable option for edentulous patients.
Bridges
After a thorough dental health analysis of your gums, existing teeth, and jaw joints, Dr. Weinstock will help you decide which type of dental bridge is the right fit for your budget and needs. A dental bridge is commonly used to replace a single tooth or multiple consecutive missing teeth. Traditionally the bridge is anchored in place using adjacent teeth. Modern dental bridges can be secured using dental implants, preventing the need to compromise adjacent healthy teeth.
