As an alternative to dental implants, a resin-bonded bridge may be the solution! Usually used for a missing front tooth, it is a custom false tooth that is attached to neighboring natural teeth with resin cement.
The procedure is minimally invasive and doesn't require alot of prep, and it's cheaper! A typical resin-bonded tooth can last between 5 or 10 years but it is imperative that dental hygiene is maintained and regular dental visits are kept. Your natural teeth must be straight and in good shape.
If you are missing a tooth and you can't afford an implant, )keep in mind, most insurance companies will only offer to cover a minimal amount for an implant) check with your dental provider for a consultation to see if you are a candidate for a resin-bonded bridge!
Keep smiling!!
