Missing Teeth

Gaps in your smile can be detrimental to your confidence and your oral function.

Here at Paddock Dental Centre, we offer multiple options to get you smiling again, including dentures, crowns, implants and bridges.

Live well and smile confidently again

We fully understand how invasive even one missing tooth can be, throwing all your biting forces out of sync, and inducing feelings of self-consciousness around others.

But it doesn’t have to be this way.

Using state-of-the-art technology and lightweight, comfortable and cosmetically sound materials, you will be smiling again before you know it.

FAQs

Why is it important to replace missing teeth?

• Whether it’s one, two or a whole arch of missing teeth, it’s important that they’re replaced as early as possible. Doing so will bring about the following advantages for your health and well-being:
• Your facial structures will look more youthful.
• You will be less vulnerable to dental problems like decay and gum disease.
• Your neighbouring teeth won’t move out of position and into the gaps.
• You’re likely to feel much more confident when smiling around others.
• Your diet will not be as limited.

Is it true that implants are the best solution for missing teeth?

The case for implants is certainly strong – we consider them to be the premium of tooth replacement treatments. Implants function as replacement tooth roots and therefore, they’re much more stable and capable of supporting the jawbone.

Bridges that are supported with implants are far more effective when you chew and talk, and they don’t involve altering existing teeth – in short, they’re much more preservative for your smile.

What is the treatment journey like at Paddock Dental Centre?

For more involved treatments, we offer appointments with our Treatment Coordinator, who can talk you through the options available to you, and outline the steps involved. Your appointment with the Treatment Coordinator is also when you will be asked to fill out consent forms and review and approve your treatment plan.

They will encourage you to ask any questions you might have prior to, during and after your treatment, whether these are regarding finance, consent, aftercare, or simply general questions. You will find the Treatment Coordinator to be helpful, supportive and someone who streamlines the entire patient journey, so that it’s a stress-free and seamless experience.
