Losing a tooth can feel unsettling, but you don’t have to live with gaps in your smile.

Modern dentistry offers several ways to restore your bite, protect your oral health, and regain your confidence.

Why should I think about replacing a lost tooth?

A missing tooth isn’t only a cosmetic issue. When there’s a gap, nearby teeth can start to shift out of place, which changes how your bite fits together. Over time, that can make chewing less comfortable and even affect your speech. Replacing the tooth helps keep everything stable and functioning properly.

How long will the process take?

It depends on the treatment you choose. Implants usually take a few months, as the jawbone needs time to heal before the final crown is fitted. Bridges and dentures are typically quicker, often ready within just a few weeks.

Frequently asked questions

Will my new teeth look natural?

Yes. Every replacement is carefully colour-matched and shaped to blend in with your existing teeth. Most patients find that once treatment is complete, nobody can tell the difference.

How do I look after them?

It’s easier than you might think. Daily brushing, flossing, and regular dental check-ups are the main things you’ll need. Depending on your treatment, we’ll also give you specific tips to help your replacement last as long as possible.

What if I’m not sure which option is best?

That’s exactly what we’re here for. We’ll examine your mouth, chat through your goals, and give you honest advice on what would suit you best. There’s never any pressure, just support and guidance.
