We understand that dental services and treatments in general can be expensive – but you should not have to compromise when it comes to your health and well being. Sometimes, when you make a decision to go for a cheaper, less durable treatment for a dental condition, you may actually have to pay much more in the long run to cover for any complications or unfavorable changes stemming from this procedure.

Here’s a good example: If you have multiple missing teeth in your mouth, and you inquire about your options from a dentist in Orlando – you’ll find that you can get:

• A Dental Bridge
• A Partial Denture
• Dental implants

Partial dentures are the cheapest – they’re prosthetic removable crowns made using plastic-like acrylic. They’ll probably cover the gaps in your mouth, but you won’t be able to eat all the things you love, and then there is always the risk of partial dentures moving too much when you chew or speak, because they’ll only fixed to the natural teeth with the help of a small metal clip.

Bridges are fixed prostheses; they’re more expensive than dentures, but still cheaper than Implants. There is no risk of displacement or movement with this treatment – but there are still other drawbacks. In order for a Bridge to be fixed and cemented into place, at least two natural teeth on either side of the socket have to be trimmed down and resized. Another major drawback is the gradual resorption or thinning of the jawbone that will continue to occur beneath the Bridge because there is no root (real or artificial) to halt or reverse it.

Dental Implants are therefore considered the best investment if you want a long lasting, effective and durable solution for missing teeth in the mouth. Fabricated using the strongest, more resilient, and biocompatible materials available – these artificial teeth will last you a whole lifetime without requiring any extra maintenance or additional expense. You’ll be able to eat whatever you like without the risk of implant fracture or displacement, and smile as wide as you want without feeling conscious.
