Additional treatment options

Removable partial dentures

Prosthetic teeth attached to a removable framework replace missing teeth for functional and aesthetic purposes. This option is particularly useful during growing years when jawbones are still developing.

procedure

Dental implants

Titanium posts surgically placed in the jawbone provide permanent anchors for prosthetic teeth, mimicking natural tooth roots. This option is typically pursued after jaw growth is complete.

surgical

Dental bridges

Fixed prosthetic devices anchored to adjacent teeth replace missing teeth, restoring chewing function and appearance. This option provides stable results without removable components.
