It is amazing how much just one missing tooth can affect your everyday life. A single space can make eating uncomfortable, speaking feel awkward, and turn smiling into a source of anxiety. These problems only compound with each missing tooth. Dr. Makadia is ready to offer patients the strong, lasting solutions they deserve. With custom–made bridges, dentures, and dental implants, he can virtually turn back the clock and help a patient look and feel like they never suffered from tooth loss in the first place. Keep reading to learn more about your options for replacing missing teeth in Bohemia, NY.
Dental implants distinguish themselves from other tooth replacement options because they actually bring back an entire tooth from root to crown. Rather than just sitting on top of the gums, a new, titanium root is placed into the jawbone. This serves as the foundation for a patient’s new tooth. This not only makes the restoration extremely strong, but durable as well, as implants have a long lifespan.

Patients missing several teeth, or even an entire row, can benefit greatly from dentures. Full or partial dentures, supported by dental implants or without any, are natural-looking prosthetic teeth that come in a variety of options. The one that is right for you and your mouth depends on your unique situation. Whatever you choose, you will enjoy the benefits of a completely restored smile. If you are having any difficulties with your current dentures, Dr. Makadia can also make them fit better. To do so, he can add mini-implants and make them stable in one to two visits.
Dental bridges (sometimes called crown and bridge) are used to replace 1 or more missing teeth. This not only improves the appearance of the smile, but it also restores the person’s ability to eat and chew their favorite foods. Bridges also prevent the teeth that are adjacent to the gap from shifting, prevent damages to adjacent and opposing teeth, and stop potential orthodontic issues that can impact the smile and bite.
