Alternative to Denture

Sometimes worsening gum disease can lead to loss of teeth. While there are several options available to replace missing teeth, including dentures and implants, this patient did not want dentures. Four of her lower front teeth were removed due to severe gum disease. A bridge replacing all four teeth was attached to two implants that would stay secure while she talks and eats. The patient was thrilled that she could eat normally again without worrying about her loose teeth.
