Missing Teeth or Want Dentures?

If you're missing one tooth or all of your teeth, dental implants may be the perfect thing for you. If you have a small dental bridge or partial dentures, implants will be a welcome alternative. Implants are an alternative to a fixed bridge. What is great about implants is that they will last a lifetime, but the crown on top of it will last ten to fifteen years. If there are any problems with either of them before those times, we will fix them for free.

Which means that when a you walk out the door of our office, you’ll actually have a denture that stays in place, won’t move around, pop-up, rub, or fly out of your mouth every time you sneeze or cough. There’s very little post-procedure pain, which we can take care of with a prescription anyway, and the cost to you is much less when compared to conventional implants! It’s simply amazing!

The greatest thing about these new dentures is that it allows you to have more confidence and prevents the fear of your dentures pulling up when you chew, or falling out of place when talking with others. Plus this new procedure is faster, costs less than conventional and slower procedures, and requires no healing time.

We are one of the few dental practices in the area who offer this new procedure.

Solution #2: Dental Bridge

A dental bridge is a false tooth that is fused between two crowns to fill in the area left by a missing tooth. The two crowns holding it in place that are attached onto your teeth on each side of the false tooth. This is known as a fixed bridge. This procedure is used to replace one or more missing teeth. Fixed bridges cannot be taken out of your mouth as you might do with removable partial dentures.

In areas of your mouth that are under less stress, such as your front teeth, a cantilever bridge may be used. Cantilever bridges are used when there are teeth on only one side of the open space. Bridges can reduce your risk of gum disease, help correct some bite issues and even improve your speech. Bridges require your commitment to serious oral hygiene, but will last as long as ten years or more.

If you have missing teeth and have good oral hygiene practices, you should discuss this procedure with your cosmetic dentist. If spaces are left unfilled, they may cause the surrounding teeth to drift out of position. Additionally, spaces from missing teeth can cause your other teeth and your gums to become far more susceptible to tooth decay and gum disease.

  • Dear Dr. Wightman,
    I want to thank you for the wonderful way you’ve corrected my smile.  I had wanted my teeth to be whiter and straighter for a long time, but had always put it off because other things were more pressing.
    The amazing technology that lets me see a photograph in advance of how my new smile would look was really exciting.  Now that I’ve had the dental work done, I wonder why I didn’t do it long ago!  It was painless, only took three appointments and I was back at work after each one.   When I was younger I had to wear braces for 2 years, I’m amazed this could be done in only three short appointments.
    Not only are my teeth whiter and straighter, they feel so much better, smooth and even, and I’m getting a lot of compliments from friends and co-workers.
    I also appreciate your patience in answering questions and making me feel comfortable with the process.  I felt completely at ease the whole time.   Everyone in your office treated me like family; they were kind, friendly and helpful.
    Please tell all your staff how much I appreciate their friendly style.  And thank you again for this great new smile.
    Sincerely,     Dorothy R., Sioux City, IA
  • Dr. Wightman,
    I wanted to take a moment to try to express my true appreciation for what you have done for me. Words cannot express how much I really appreciate this beautiful gesture. I cannot thank you enough. You put crowns on my front teeth and they look beautiful. The first sight of my new smile brought a tear to my eye. I did not know that this was possible. For the first time in my life I can truly smile.
    I have always adjusted my smile to hide that tooth, and for the first time in my life, I can fully smile, and I am proud of my smile! When I look in the mirror I see a whole new person. I have gained confidence in myself and truly feel like there is nothing that I cannot do if I set my mind to it. You did more than change my appearance,you have changed my life.
    I will never be able to fully express how thankful I am, and how much I truly appreciate what you've done for me.
     
    Sincerely,     Mike S.
