A missing tooth can raise questions about eating, appearance and the care that comes next.

Understand your options

Understand the available approaches.

Replacement options can include bridges, dentures and implant-supported teeth. They differ in how they are supported and how they are cared for.

Your remaining teeth, gums and overall situation help shape the discussion. Ask which options apply to you and what each would involve before choosing a path.
