Dental bridges can help if you have a missing tooth or teeth. To get a dental bridge, you need healthy teeth on either side of the missing ones. Why do I need a dental bridge? Your teeth work together. If a tooth is missing, nearby teeth can move into the empty space. The teeth in your opposite jaw can also move up or down toward the space. What happens during a procedure for a traditional dental bridge? You’ll typically need at least two appointments: Teeth preparation: During your first visit, your healthcare provider reshapes the abutment teeth. They’ll remove part of the enamel and dentin, so there’s room for the crown. Impressions: Your provider takes impressions or a digital scan of your teeth. A dental laboratory uses the mold or scan as a model to create your bridge, false teeth and crowns. You’ll have a temporary bridge to protect the exposed areas in your mouth while the lab makes your bridge. Permanent bridge placement: During your second visit, the Dr removes the temporary bridge and places the permanent bridge. Your provider will carefully check the bridge and make any needed adjustments to make sure it fits you comfortably.

Dental crowns are caps placed on top of damaged teeth. They are used to protect, cover and restore the shape of your teeth when fillings don’t solve the problem. They typically don’t require special care over time other than regular good oral hygiene.
How is my tooth prepared for a dental crown?
During the first visit, the tooth that’s going to receive the crown is examined and prepared. X-rays are taken of the tooth and the bone around it. The dentist may need to do a root canal treatment before your dental crown procedure if there’s any:
Tooth decay. Risk of infection. Injury to the tooth’s pulp. The tooth that’s receiving the crown will be filed down across the top and sides. This will make space for the crown itself. If too much of your tooth is missing a filling material can be used to “build up” enough tooth structure for the crown to cover.
After reshaping the tooth, a paste or putty is used to make an impression of the tooth that’s going to receive the crown. The impressions are sent to a dental laboratory. The laboratory makes the crowns and usually returns them to the dentist’s office in one to two days. During this first office visit, the dentist will make a temporary crown to cover and protect the prepared tooth while you’re waiting on the permanent crown.
The second visit : At the second visit, the permanent crown is placed on your tooth. First, the temporary crown is removed and the fit and color of the permanent crown is checked. If everything is okay, a local anesthetic is sometimes used to numb the tooth and the new crown is permanently cemented in place.

A full denture will be fitted if all your upper or lower teeth need to be removed or you're having an old complete denture replaced.
The denture will usually be fitted as soon as your teeth are removed, which means you won't be without teeth. The denture will fit snugly over your gums and jawbone.
But if you have dentures fitted immediately after the removal of several teeth, the gums and bone will alter in shape fairly quickly and the dentures will probably need relining or remaking after a few months.

A partial denture is designed to fill in the gaps left by one or more missing teeth. It's a plastic, nylon or metal plate with a number of false teeth attached to it.

It usually clips onto some of your natural teeth via metal clasps, which hold it securely in place in your mouth. It can easily be unclipped and removed.

Occasionally, the clips can be made of a tooth- or gum-coloured material, although this type of clip isn't always suitable because it tends to be more brittle than metal.

You will receive a local anesthetic, which numbs the area around your tooth so you’ll feel only pressure, not pain, during the procedure. The dentist then uses an instrument called an elevator to loosen the tooth and forceps to remove it.

Most teeth can be removed via simple extractions. This means that the tooth can be removed without manipulation of the surrounding soft tissue and bone.

Teeth that are difficult to remove may require an additional, small, surgical procedure. This surgical procedure is needed if the wisdom tooth is impacted or if it is not fully erupted.

In many cases, wisdom teeth will be impacted as well as partially erupted, hence necessitating surgery.
