Missing one or more teeth? Our North London dentists offer trusted, long-term solutions to restore function, comfort and confidence.
Tooth loss in adulthood is more common than you might think, and whether it’s due to injury, gum disease or decay, the effects can go far beyond aesthetics.
Missing teeth can impact your speech, limit the foods you can comfortably eat and lead to a loss of confidence in your smile. It can also create space in your mouth that causes neighbouring teeth to shift out of place, making them harder to clean and more vulnerable to decay.
At Woodberry Down Dental Practice, we offer a range of personalised, effective options to replace missing teeth. Every treatment plan begins with a consultation to understand your dental history, your goals, and what will work best for your mouth long term.
We provide three main types of tooth replacement options at our North London clinic. Each has different benefits and may suit different needs depending on your oral health, lifestyle and budget.
Dental Implants
Implants are considered one of the most durable and natural-feeling ways to replace a missing tooth. A small titanium post is placed into the jawbone, acting as a new tooth root. Once healed, a crown is attached to restore full function and aesthetics. Implants can be used to replace single teeth or support bridges and dentures.
Dental Bridges
A bridge is used to close the gap between teeth. It consists of one or more artificial teeth held in place by crowns on either side. Bridges can be a great choice if you have strong natural teeth adjacent to the gap, and they help prevent teeth from shifting out of alignment.
Dentures
Dentures are removable appliances designed to replace multiple or all missing teeth. They are customised to fit your mouth and restore your ability to chew and speak clearly. We offer both partial and full dentures, including implant-supported options for added stability and comfort.
Over time, missing teeth can lead to bone loss in the jaw, changes in facial structure, bite misalignment and increased wear on remaining teeth. Replacing them early helps preserve your oral health and function.
Even if a missing tooth is not noticeable when you smile, it can still affect your bite and lead to uneven pressure on other teeth. Replacing it can prevent long-term issues with chewing and jaw function.
The best option depends on several factors, including how many teeth are missing, the health of your gums and jaw, your budget, and your personal preferences. We’ll guide you through all your choices and help you make an informed decision.
Yes, many people find that tooth loss changes the way they feel about their appearance. Replacing missing teeth can dramatically improve self-esteem, allowing you to smile, speak and eat with ease again.
If you’re living with tooth loss, know that you have options. Whether you’re missing a single tooth or need a full-mouth restoration, our team is here to help you feel confident again. We’ll work with you to find the most suitable and lasting solution.
