Four Tooth Replacement Options in Marietta, Georgia

November 21, 2019

Whether you have one tooth, several missing teeth, or no teeth left at all, you should know all of your tooth replacement options in Marietta, Georgia. Depending on your situation, you may want to choose from the following common treatments:

Dental Bridge

A dental bridge is a connection of three or more crowns that fit over the teeth adjacent to the area of your missing tooth. Bridges are permanently cemented in place and last a long time, but you’ll need to take extra care in keeping it healthy. The natural teeth underneath a bridge can decay, meaning that you’ll potentially have to get it removed and replaced, adding to overall costs in the future.

Dental Implant

A dental implant costs about as much as a bridge and doesn’t involve other natural teeth. An implant stands alone and is held in place by your bone. Attached to the implant is a crown (artificial tooth) that’s custom made to blend in with your adjacent teeth. Dental implants have the potential to last a lifetime, but in order to get the most out of yours you’ll have to ensure that you don’t get gum disease; excellent oral hygiene is a must.

Partial Denture

For those that are missing several teeth, a partial denture is the most economical way to go. This removable device spans the entire arch of your mouth and stays in place with little hooks that hang on your natural teeth. On top of the framework, acrylic teeth fill in the spaces where teeth are missing.

Full Denture

If you’re missing all of your teeth, or the ones you have left are bad then a full denture where we replace all of your missing teeth with a single appliance, may be the solution for you. One of the downfalls of a denture, especially a lower one it that it can be loose. To help with that, you can get some implants placed which will give the denture something to anchor to.

I absolutely love this dental experience. I used to dread having to make dental trips but since finding this office 4 years ago that took the dread away. From making the appointment, to visiting with the office staff. It's great. The Hygienist is very friendly. But that Dr. O,
she is a ray of sunshine. Perfect bedside manner, concerning, caring, helpful, and so very positive. I do not have dental insurance and could go somewhere else that may be a tad cheaper but I wouldn't trade this dental office for the world. They feel more like family. Give them a try you won't regret it!

I am very happy I came to this dental office! I tend to avoid going to the dentist because of past experiences, but my visit today was 10/10!! The dental hygienist, Kelly, and Dr. Buffington were so nice and thorough. I highly recommend! So happy I found a good and nice dental office finally!! :)

Always a great experience when I come in for cleanings or any work that has to be done. Special thanks to my hygienist Kelli for a good cleaning today and making me feel comfortable. Dr. Buffington is also terrific and very attentive. The entire staff will make you feel welcome and comfortable.

I have been a patient here for many years. I’ve always had positive experiences. I especially like the Dental Hygenist “Callie”. She is just the best, always smiling and cheerful, just what you need at the Dentist. She is very experienced and I’ve learned a lot from her. All the Staff is very nice and polite and Dr Buffington is great also. I’ve had a lot of dental work done by her and never had a problem. She is very gentle and painless too!

Nancy M.
The dentist, Dr. Buffington, hygienist, and staff were professional and efficient. Dr. Buffington provided an excellent explanation to my question so that I understood the situation. High recommend this dental practice.

Don S.
Dr. Buffington has to be the kindest, most patient dentist in the world. The staff is amazingly attentive, non-judgemental and offers a very comforting experience. I appreciate how patient they are with me, a 44-year old that still cries and would rather give birth (without medication) than have dental work. I hope you catch my drift😉

Adriennes B.
I really like Dr. Buffington. She gave me a plan that gives me hope about a TMJ issue. Everyone on the staff was professional and seemed genuinely caring. I would highly recommend the office.

It’s a warm and welcoming atmosphere, and they don’t try to sell you on things you don’t need.

Donna D.
I highly recommend this dental practice. They took prompt and amazing care of me to address a TMJ episode. Dr. Buffington and all employees I encountered were professional, friendly, caring and knowledgeable. They set me on the path of recovery and have earned my respect and business going forward. How refreshing to engage with a business that truly understands customer service.
