Thomas W. Gamba, DDS, PC www.docgamba.com 866.402.2582 A dental implant is different than a bridge. A fixed bridge is something that is cemented into your mouth on top of your teeth, that replaces a missing tooth. So if you had one missing tooth, we would prepare the teeth on either side of the space, put a crown on each of those teeth, and connect it to a false tooth in the middle, that would replace your missing tooth. A dental implant is much better, because you don’t have to touch the teeth on either side of the space to anchor an implant. The implant is placed directly in the space where the tooth was extracted. If you have a missing tooth or missing teeth, they can be restored with dental implants. Come into our office and we’ll give you a complimentary consultation, tell you what your options are, and explain the procedure to you. Thomas W.
