Is There an Alternative to Having a Dental Plate?

Q.
I have a tooth on a plate, it is the third one in from the front. I have had it for a long time but it doesn’t feel as secure as before. I have been advised to have an implant by my dentist, and I can’t have a bridge as the other teeth are not too strong and are filled quite heavily. But I would rather have another single tooth, due to the expense. Is there a procedure where the tooth can be put on with 2 clips attached to the two surrounding teeth, rather than a plate? I would be grateful for any advice.
A.
Yes there is. This is just another kind of denture/removable bridge design. If your current dentist cannot help you, ask for a second opinion from another highly respected and experienced dentist. Thank you for your question. Regards, Mark.
