Dental implants are considered the best and most natural way to replace missing teeth.
An implant takes the place of the root of the tooth, and a crown is made to replace the portion above the gums.
If you are a candidate, dental implants are the most natural way to replace missing teeth.
As the name implies, a dental bridge replaces a missing tooth by anchoring to the teeth on either side of the space.
If the anchor teeth have been weakened by large fillings, this could be a great option for you.

Caries is the scientific word for cavity.
You can see in the image above how a cavity can start as a small problem and grow to a dangerous dental infection.
Most of the time you will never know you have a cavity at its earliest stages.
By the time you have sensitivity or a toothache the problem has become severe.
When a cavity is close to the pulp the nerve could die or become infected.
At this point your choice is to extract the tooth (and the dying nerve that goes with it) or to remove the nerve and disinfect the pulp chamber by having a root canal.
