Why Should You Replace Missing Teeth?
Every tooth plays an essential role in the form and function of the smile, so whether you’ve lost a single tooth or a full row of teeth, replacing them as quickly as possible should be your priority. However, many patients who’ve lost only one tooth believe it will not cause profound harm to their overall oral health, but without even a single tooth, your smile may be open to numerous concerns, including:
- Dental drift, or when teeth begin moving to fill in the gap in the smile
- Loss of gum tissue volume and jawbone density
- Change in facial structure that occurs when tissue volume decreases
Whether you’re a patient of Vista Dental Care or new to our practice, we encourage you to call our office right away if you’ve lost one or more teeth. During a tooth replacement consultation, we’ll explore all of your tooth replacement options and help you find the best option.
Dental Bridges
To replace one or more consecutive teeth, we can use dental crowns to support a replacement tooth or teeth called pontics. Placed on both sides of the pontics, the dental crowns are attached to remaining healthy teeth for support. We can also use dental implant posts to support a fixed bridge.

Dental Implants
Dental implants are considered the gold standard when it comes to replacing missing teeth, capable of restoring them in terms of look, feel, and functionality. The implant itself is a small titanium post placed directly into the jawbone, which, once healed, is completed with a custom-made dental restoration placed on top. At our Sparks office, we offer in-house dental implant placement, All-on-4, and other supplementary services like bone grafting, platelet-rich fibrin for healing, and 3D-printed surgical guides.

Dentures
Replacing numerous missing teeth or a full arch of teeth is easier and more comfortable using partial and full dentures. Dentures use a gum-colored base material to support any number of replacement teeth as a single unit. We also provide dental implant dentures for optimal comfort and stability.
