Dental implants provide an excellent solution for replacing several missing teeth, restoring both the function and appearance of your smile.
Depending on your individual needs, missing teeth can be replaced with individual implant-supported crowns or with an implant-supported bridge. In many cases, it isn't necessary to place an implant for every missing tooth, as a bridge can be securely supported by strategically positioned implants, providing a strong, natural-looking and long-lasting result.

Replacing multiple missing teeth is important not only for the appearance of your smile, but also for your long-term oral health.
Your molars are responsible for most of the chewing forces in your mouth. When these teeth are missing, the workload is transferred to your front teeth, which are not designed to withstand the same level of pressure. Over time, this can lead to excessive wear, damage and changes to your bite.
Dental implants restore balance to your bite by replacing missing teeth with stable, functional restorations, allowing you to eat comfortably while helping to protect your remaining natural teeth.
Every smile is different, which is why your implant treatment will be tailored to your individual needs. Depending on the number and position of the missing teeth, we may recommend individual dental implants, an implant-supported bridge, or a combination of both.
For patients with several adjacent missing teeth, an implant-supported bridge can often replace multiple teeth using fewer implants, providing a predictable and cost-effective solution without compromising strength or aesthetics.
If significant bone loss has occurred, we may recommend a bone graft before implant placement to create a strong, healthy foundation for your new teeth. During your consultation, we'll discuss all of your options and create a personalised treatment plan designed to achieve the best possible outcome.
