Missing several teeth can affect the way you eat, speak and smile. Multiple dental implants offer a stable way to replace one or more missing teeth while helping restore both function and appearance. Every treatment plan is personalised to suit your individual needs and oral health.
If you're missing several teeth and would like to explore your replacement options, we're here to help. At Ardent Orpington Dental Clinic, we'll assess your oral health, explain the available treatment options and create a personalised plan designed around your needs.
When several teeth are missing, replacing them individually isn’t always the only option. Depending on the position of the gaps and the condition of your mouth, dental implants can support individual crowns or an implant-supported bridge.
The most suitable approach depends on factors such as the number of missing teeth, the amount of healthy bone available and your long-term treatment goals.
Multiple dental implants may be suitable if you:
Every patient receives an individual assessment before treatment is recommended.
We’ll examine your teeth and gums, assess the areas where teeth are missing and discuss whether multiple dental implants are the most appropriate solution. Diagnostic imaging may be used to help plan your treatment.
The required dental implants are carefully placed into the jawbone in the planned positions. Depending on your treatment plan, these implants may support individual crowns or an implant-supported bridge.
The implants are given time to integrate with the jawbone, creating a stable foundation for your replacement teeth. We’ll review your progress throughout the healing period.
Once healing is complete, your custom-made crowns or bridge are securely attached to the implants, restoring the appearance, function and stability of your smile.
Replacing several missing teeth with dental implants may provide a number of advantages.
Potential benefits include:
The most appropriate treatment will always depend on your clinical assessment and oral health.
