| Bridges and partial
dentures (click here
for more information) |
| There are two main ways to replace the missing
teeth. The first is with a removable false tooth or teeth –
a partial denture. The second is with a fixed bridge. A bridge
is usually used where there are fewer teeth to replace, or when
the missing teeth are only on one side of the mouth. |
| Dentures (click

for more information) |
| A denture is an appliance which is worn to replace
lost or missing teeth to enable you to enjoy a healthy diet
and smile with confidence. A complete or full denture is one
which replaces all of the natural teeth in either the upper
or lower jaws. A partial denture fills in the spaces created
by lost or missing teeth and is attached to your natural teeth
with metal clasps or devices called precision attachments. |

| A crown is an artificial
restoration that fits over the remaining part of a prepared
tooth, making it strong and giving it the shape of a natural
tooth. A crown is sometimes known as a ‘cap’. |
