According to your description, you can consider dental implants. Dental implants are mainly suitable for patients with multiple missing teeth, which is a good choice, but compared with porcelain teeth, they are more expensive and take less time, but they also have many advantages.

Compared with traditional dental implant methods (removable denture and fixed bridge), dental implant has the following advantages:

1 Do not wear healthy teeth. Traditional restoration methods, such as denture and fixed bridge, often wear adjacent teeth, while dental implants do not wear adjacent healthy teeth.

2 can solve problems that traditional methods can't solve. Traditional dental implant methods can not insert fixed dentures when teeth are missing at the free end, many teeth are missing or all teeth are missing. Dental implants can make you have comfortable fixed teeth regardless of single tooth loss, free end loss, multiple tooth loss and complete toothlessness.

3 beautiful, natural and realistic. High-quality dental implants, dentures and gum parts can be made naturally and realistically. Feel comfortable. Because there is no need for clasp and large plastic base necessary for traditional removable denture, there is no discomfort caused by it. Patients generally believe that dental implants feel more comfortable in the mouth than traditional dentures.

4 stable and good chewing function. Because dental implants can directly enter the gums, they are firm and stable, and they will immediately feel the chewing function that they have not had for a long time when eating. High quality dental implants can usually be used for a long time. The shedding rate of dental implants is lower than that of human natural teeth, and some dental implants are still good after more than 30 years of use.

5. Convenient oral cleaning. Because dental implants are natural teeth, they are like natural teeth when brushing their teeth, unlike traditional removable dentures that need to be taken off and cleaned.
