So, you have missing teeth for whatever reason possible. What can you do? The worst thing is not to do anything and live in an open space between the teeth. We don’t recommend that. Dental implants are another option. You can also opt for dentures. Finally, dental bridges can be beneficial. Do not hesitate to arrange a meeting at Dental Emergency Cheadle, so our expert would be able to give you full insight into the best solution.
One of the first disadvantages of such a solution, which falls into the mind, is a bad appearance. The bone around the place where the tooth has fallen out will resorb with time. That will cause many problems if a patient decides to use dental implants later in life. Teeth close to the gap on both sides will tend to move into the space causing all sorts of problems with biting and chewing. Similar stands for the teeth in the opposing jaw.
Dental Implants Dental implants are often an excellent option for restoring teeth. They help maintain bone density and prevent resorption. Additionally, choosing dental implants eliminates the issue of loose neighboring teeth. Over time, this solution frequently becomes the most cost-effective choice for patients.
Dentures carry along with many risks, as they are removable. A patient has to be very careful with it most of the time. Anyway, this option is often the most cost-effective. Nowadays dental technology and materials can also provide solutions looking so good, that most people wouldn’t even recognise a patient is wearing one.
Dental bridges have been known for many years now. The new supportive crowns are placed on each side of the gap. Their biggest deficiency is that the need for drilling the nearby healthy teeth might occur.

Handle the tooth by the crown and rinse it very gently with water. Do not scrub the tooth. Keep the tooth moist by placing it in milk, saliva or in a tooth preservation solution. Seek immediate dental treatment in order to increase the chances of saving the tooth.

If the tooth is intact and quickly brought in, dentists may attempt reimplantation. If that’s not possible, options include dental implants, bridges, or partial dentures to restore function and appearance.
You should go to the Emergency dentist if the tooth was lost during a major accident with head, jaw, or facial trauma, uncontrolled bleeding, or any signs of a concussion. An emergency dentist is the most appropriate facility if you lose a tooth for other reasons.
