Would a bridge or implant be best for replacing missing front tooth?
Q. I had to have my top right second from front tooth removed yesterday due to an injury and my front right top tooth will need a crown. I have a temporary denture for the time being and my dentist has suggested a bridge for my missing tooth. Is this the best option or should I consider an implant. I am 37 and the rest of my teeth and gums are healthy. What would you recommend. Kind regards,
A. Hi It is very difficult to comment without carrying out a full examination. An implant would be an ideal option, because the adajacent teeth would not be touched, unlike a bridge.
