Why it's Important to
Replace Missing Teeth
If you’ve had a tooth pulled due to infection, you may mistakenly believe that the extraction solved the problem. In reality, having a tooth pulled is just one step in the process to your restoring your oral health and function. Here’s why.
When a tooth is not replaced, it can cause the jawbone around the socket to resorb, which can alter your bite and facial appearance over time. Also, missing teeth can cause other teeth to go out of alignment or even cause the opposing teeth to super erupt, leading to additional complications such as temporomandibular joint disorder (TMJ) and uneven wear on biting surfaces.Â

Dental Implants
Dental implants are considered the “gold standard” of tooth replacement procedures. Dental implants can be used to replace a single missing tooth, or even a full arch of missing teeth.
The Mora Dental Studio team would be happy to recommend a dental implant procedure to restore the function and appearance of your smile.
Dental Crowns
Sometimes called “caps,” dental crowns are prosthetic devices that cover the surface of the tooth to give it strength and protect it from infection. With dental crowns, you can alter the shape, size, and appearance of the tooth, which is why they are also used in cosmetic dentistry.
Your dentist may recommend a dental crown if you have undergone root canal therapy, dental trauma, extensive tooth decay, or another condition which has compromised the integrity of your tooth.
Material Options
Dental crowns are available in a number of materials, with porcelain being the most popular. Other restorative options include gold and zirconia. Each material has its own unique advantages. We would be happy to make recommendations based on your smile and oral health goals.
