alternative to partial dentures

[Gavin]

Hi

I am looking for the best alternative to my partial dentures which I find extemely distressing. I recently had a dental bridge removed (4 teeth) but the two teeth that secured the bridge had to be extracted. Please advise.

Thank you for your question. If you now have a four tooth gap, your alternatives to a partial denture would be either to accept the gap or have 3-4 dental implants +/- implant supported bridge or implant supported crowns.
