The activities most people take for granted\u2014eating, talking, smiling, laughing\u2014may be compromised. And beyond the affects that even one missing tooth can have on your oral health, there are the consequences to your general and emotional health to consider, too. Your nutrition may suffer if you are unable to consume a well-balanced diet of fresh fruits and vegetables. Emotionally, missing teeth can make you self-conscious in both social and professional situations. Therefore, Dr. Bobby Carmen and his team in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.drbobbycarmen.com\/contact.html\">Norman, OK<\/a>, offer a variety of tooth replacement options, so you can have the full and beautiful smile you need and deserve.<\/p>\n<h2>Dental Implants in Norman<\/h2>\n<p>Perhaps the most lifelike <a href=\"https:\/\/www.drbobbycarmen.com\/missing-teeth.html\">tooth replacement<\/a> choice is a dental implant. This modern dental wonder not only replaces the crown of a tooth\u2014the visible portion\u2014but the root as well. As such, you\u2019ll have stable base upon which Dr. Carmen can attach a natural-looking porcelain tooth restoration. As an implant dentist, Dr. Carmen will perform every step of treatment, including implant placement, at our Norman dental office. He will surgically implant a small titanium post your jawbone. As this heals, the bone and post will fuse, creating as firm a foundation as a live tooth root. Once you\u2019ve healed, you\u2019ll return to our office where Dr. Carmen will affix a custom crown. If you have more than one missing tooth, then implants will be positioned along your arch in order to securely hold implant retained dentures.<\/p>\n<h2>Full and Partial Dentures<\/h2>\n<p>For full and partial dentures, Norman turns to Dr. Carmen. As you might guess, full dentures replace all of the teeth on an upper or lower arch. Partial dentures, on the other hand, are designed to fit between and among your remaining teeth. Full dentures and partials contain artificial teeth on a pink, gum-colored base, and both look completely natural. With wear, they will feel natural, too. Dr. Carmen takes great care to design dentures that are comfortable and appropriately sized for your unique mouth and facial features.<\/p>\n<h2>Call Our Office Today<\/h2>\n<p>If you would like to learn more about your tooth replacement options, or if you are ready to schedule a consultation, then please call the office of Dr. Bobby Carmen.
