SEVERAL TEETH MISSING
Benefits with fixed bridge on implants:
In this case, when replacing three teeth in the far back of the mouth, a fixed bridge anchored to dental implants is the only non removable alternative. Traditional dentures can't offer the same stability or function.
Having dental implants replacing your lost back teeth will give you new, unparalleled strength and stability that allows you to eat normally. It will also preserve your jawbone and facial appearance

 |
1: Before the procedure
Three teeth at back end of the mouth are missing. The only real replacement alternative is installing a fixed bridge. The bridge contains all teeth in one piece and is anchored on dental implants. |
|
2: Installing the implant
First, the implants are installed. This is normally done in a single session. |
 |
|
 |
3: Attaching the bridge
The implants need to integrate with the jawbone before the permanent bridge is attached. This is normally done a few months after the implant installation. |
|
4: End result
The new bridge will handle all the pressure that your strong, natural back teeth did. You will have a stable and secure solution that allows you to eat normally. |
