Sixty-nine percent of all adults have lost at least one tooth. Whether it's from injury, disease, or decay, tooth loss is a very common problem that most adults will face at some point in their lives. Today, many options are available for replacing missing teeth. Dr. Dougherty, Dr. Klotz, or Dr. Schlossberg will discuss your options and provide you with comfortable care that will restore your smile and your health.
Did you know that patients who lose one tooth are likely to lose 20% more teeth in the next seven to eight years? By replacing a missing tooth, we improve your chances of keeping the rest of your teeth for life. We replace missing teeth with bridges, dentures, and dental implants.
The best option for replacing one tooth or several teeth is dental implants. The dental implant process involves surgical placement of artificial tooth roots. Once in place, the implant(s) will permanently anchor a crown, bridge, or denture. Our dentists perform implant surgery and implant restorations in the safety and comfort of our Bethesda dental office.
If you're ready to experience total comfort and achieve optimal oral health and beauty, call Bethesda Sedation Dentistry or schedule an appointment online. We will give your smile new life! Dr. Dougherty, Dr. Klotz, Dr. Schlossberg, and our team proudly serve residents of Bethesda, Potomac, Rockville, Washington DC, Northern Virginia, and beyond.
