Tooth Loss & Replacement Options
Introduction
Tooth loss is more than just a cosmetic concern—it can affect your ability to eat, speak, and smile confidently. At Excel Dental Clinic, with locations in Mumbai and Kalyan, we understand the emotional and physical impact missing teeth can have on your daily life. Whether caused by injury, decay, or gum disease, missing teeth should never be ignored. The good news is that modern dentistry offers several safe and effective solutions to restore both function and aesthetics.
Led by Dr. Rahul Shetty and Dr. Nupur Shetty, our team specializes in advanced tooth replacement treatments, including dental implants, bridges, and dentures tailored to your needs and lifestyle.
Why Replacing a Missing Tooth Matters
When a tooth goes missing, it creates more than just a gap in your smile. The surrounding teeth begin to shift, which can misalign your bite and lead to jaw discomfort. Additionally, bone loss can occur at the site of the missing tooth, causing changes to your facial structure over time. Tooth loss can also impair chewing and digestion, and even affect speech clarity.
At Excel Dental Clinic, we emphasize timely intervention. Replacing a missing tooth early helps preserve oral health, maintain bone structure, and restore your confidence
Your Tooth Replacement Options
1. Dental Implants
Best for: Single or multiple tooth loss, long-term durability
Dental implants are considered the gold standard in tooth replacement. A titanium post is surgically placed into the jawbone to mimic a tooth root, and a custom crown is attached on top. Implants look, feel, and function like natural teeth and prevent bone loss by stimulating the jaw.
At Excel Dental Clinic, Dr. Rahul Shetty and Dr. Nupur Shetty use 3D imaging and guided implant technology to ensure precise placement and optimal results.
Benefits:
Permanent solution
Preserves jawbone
No impact on surrounding teeth
Natural appearance and feel
2. Dental Bridges
Best for: Replacing one or more missing teeth in a row
A dental bridge uses the adjacent natural teeth as anchors to support a false tooth (pontic) in between. Bridges are fixed and do not require removal. This option is cost-effective and faster than implants but may require modifying nearby teeth.
Benefits:
Fixed, non-removable
Restores chewing ability
Aesthetic improvement
Less invasive than implants
3. Removable Dentures
Best for: Full arch tooth loss or temporary tooth replacement
Dentures are custom-made prosthetics that replace several or all missing teeth. They can be full (complete dentures) or partial, depending on your needs. Today’s modern dentures are far more comfortable and natural-looking than those in the past.
Benefits:
Affordable
Non-invasive
Easy to adjust and repair
Suitable for patients with limited bone support
Immediate Load Implants: A Smile in One Day
For eligible candidates, we also offer immediate load implants, where the implant and temporary crown are placed on the same day. This technique minimizes downtime and gives you a functional smile in just a single visit.
