Got a problem with missing teeth?
Losing a tooth can happen through a sudden trauma, or over a longer time as it gradually fails. Most people are not happy to have a gap in their mouth and we have a number of different ways to restore your smile again.
​
Here at No 9 Dental Practice in Uphall, we are registered with the General Dental Council, and our lead dentist Peter Buchan is an Accredited Member of the British Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry and the Association of Dental Implantology UK, so you can rely on us to restore your smile.
We can replace missing teeth with:
Dental bridges
​
Dental Bridges are a way of replacing missing teeth, using the support of the teeth on either side of the gap. They are made in a similar way to dental crowns. If you have a gap, particularly one or two teeth, then dental bridges can be a great solution.
​
How do we complete the treatment
​
We will take an impression of your gap to create a natural, custom fitting bridge. Sometimes the teeth on either side will need to be prepared to support the bridge, while other times the bridge can be attached to the tooth as it is. This impression will either be sent to our technician to create your bridge, or we may be able to make it in a single appointment onsite with our CEREC machine.
Dental implants
​
Implants are the most predictable long-term solution to missing teeth. This is true whether you are missing one, two, or have no teeth left. Tooth implants fuse with the bone under your gums to form a strong and reliable foundation onto which we can build natural looking crowns, bridges or dentures as a replacement tooth/teeth.
​
If you would like the best dental treatment that is a permanent solution to missing teeth in the West Lothian area, then this could be the ideal treatment for you.
