Are You Missing Teeth?




Did you know that the average adult between the ages of 20 and 64 is estimated to have three or more decayed or missing teeth? Your dental care and oral health are necessary to maintaining your overall health and wellness. Untreated dental disease in decaying teeth can lead to more serious health issues, including infection or damage to your bones and nerves. Learn More About Missing Teeth at www.MouthHealthy.org

If you are missing one or more teeth, or have teeth that need to be removed, there are many ways to restore your oral health and your beautiful smile. Dental bridges are one method of restoring missing teeth. A bridge restoration is fixed to adjacent teeth, and can be more invasive for teeth that are unrestored or are not needing to be removed. 

Dental implants are another method of restoring missing teeth, and provide a natural looking and naturally functioning tooth, and can be less invasive to adjacent teeth. To learn more about dental options for replacing missing teeth, contact our restoration specialist, Dr. Damion Gilday, at (541) 343-3822 to schedule your initial consultation.
