What are the options for replacing multiple missing teeth?

How dental implants generally work, their advantages and disadvantages, we have already discussed in our comprehensive guide to dental implants. Now, let's take a closer look at the topic of replacing multiple missing teeth.

The replacement of multiple missing teeth can be achieved by placing dental implants and subsequently fabricating a fixed bridge anchored to these implants, a fixed bridge anchored to natural teeth, or a partial removable denture.

Fixed bridge supported by implants

After the placement and integration of two or more dental implants, it is possible to create a dental bridge, based on a scan, which is fixed to the implants using abutments.

This is a fixed restoration for two or more teeth in various locations, and the patient cannot remove this dental bridge at home. This fixed bridge aesthetically and mechanically replaces the lost group of teeth.

Fixed conventional dental bridge

A fixed bridge requires the preparation (grinding) of two or more teeth adjacent to the gap to create space for the prosthetic restoration.

The number of teeth requiring preparation before anchoring the bridge depends on several factors, such as the number of missing teeth, their position within the dental arch, and the condition of the prepared teeth themselves.

Partial removable denture

This solution is suitable for patients for whom a fixed bridge cannot be made or implants cannot be placed. This type of restoration can be removed from the mouth for routine dental hygiene of the remaining natural teeth and the denture itself. The denture is made of metal components, resin, and artificial teeth.
