What are the mouth effects of Single Tooth Deficiencies?
When a tooth is missing, some findings are expected in the bone, other teeth and gingiva in the empty area. In the area with missing teeth, first of all, bone resorption begins.

To avoid these problems, missing tooth areas should be treated in a short time. If the treatment is interrupted, instead of treating a single tooth, it is obligatory to treat at least three teeth.

What are the Treatment Methods for Single Tooth Deficiencies?
It is quite easy to treat single tooth deficiencies. Moreover, it can be treated in several different ways.
One of the most preferred treatment methods in case of a single missing tooth is bridge treatment. In bridge treatment, a bridge tooth is placed on the missing tooth root. In this way, support is provided from neighboring teeth. With the support taken from the tooth next to the missing tooth, the problems that can be experienced can be easily prevented.
Among the advantages of bridge therapy are; It does not last long, provides an aesthetically beautiful appearance and is useful.
Implant treatment is the most preferred and most successful treatment method in single tooth deficiency. For this, a screw (implant) is placed to replace the roots of the tooth. After the implant is completely attached with the bone, they are restored as a tooth-shaped veneer crown. It is a treatment method that can be used for a long time without any problems.
