Replacement Of Missing Teeth With Implants This patient opted to have his missing teeth replaced with implants. Root form cylinders of titanium were surgically. Titanium attachments were then placed and a porcelain and metal bridge was screwed into place. This way, the patient did not have a plate covering the roof of his mouth which affects speech and taste. This case was very difficult due to the deepbite, but the cosmetic results were fantastic.

This patient had lost her front teeth in an accident years ago. She wore a partial denture which covered the roof of her mouth and had to be removed for cleaning and soaking. Fixed bridgework was used to replace her missing teeth by reducing the outer surface of her canines (eye teeth) and placing crowns (or caps) on them. The artificial teeth are then suspended from these crowns and the entire unit is cemented into place permanently. No more metal and plastic on the roof of the mouth to make speech difficult and to alter taste sensations
