You can select from a number of different options to replace your missing teeth – from temporary to long-lasting solutions. Dental implants are the most comfortable and permanent solution. They form a strong foundation for teeth and keep the jaw healthy and strong. Implants support individual replacement teeth or secure specialized dentures in place. Unlike bridges, no healthy teeth are damaged. Unlike most bridges, implants can last a lifetime. Implant-supported replacement teeth can be attractive, stable, and comfortable for almost any patient.
Wisdom Teeth Removal
With an oral examination and x-rays of the mouth, Drs. Brown or Neuwirth can evaluate the position of the wisdom teeth and predict if there are present or future potential problems. If you do not have enough room in your mouth for your third molars to fully erupt, a number of problems can happen. Impacted wisdom teeth should be removed before their root structure is fully developed. In general, you will heal faster, more predictably and have fewer complications if treated in your teens or early twenties.
