Sometimes it happens that only one final tooth is lost, which may have served as a support for a bridge. This leads to significant problems in the function of the dental arch. In these cases, when patients have lost one or more front teeth, and cannot have a front tooth to serve as a bridge support, implants are used.
In the past, one-sided mobile dentures were the solution for the loss of final teeth. Patients had limited use of one side of the mouth, or wore dentures, due to a missing last tooth. However, today implants offer an ideal solution. Implants provide a fixed bridge that completely restores the masticatory function of the affected side.
This is one of the three main indications for the application of implants. Placing one or two implants at the end of the dental arch creates a base for a fixed porcelain bridge. This bridge is worn by the implants and replaces the lost teeth, restoring the full function and aesthetics of the dental arch.
By applying implants in such situations, patients receive a solution that not only restores the functions of the teeth, but also significantly improves their comfort and quality of life. A fixed bridge over implants provides stability and long-term functionality, allowing patients to enjoy normal use of their mouth again.
