Bring Back Your Complete Smile
Missing teeth affect more than appearance. They change the way you chew, alter how you speak, and over time contribute to bone loss and shifting in the surrounding dentition. The longer tooth loss goes unaddressed, the more complex and costly the path to restoration becomes.
At Stetson Village Family Dentistry in Peoria, we offer both dentures and dental bridges as dependable, time-tested solutions for replacing missing teeth. Whether you are missing a single tooth, several teeth in a row, or a full arch, we will help you find the right option for your situation, your budget, and your long-term oral health goals.
Every restoration we provide is custom-crafted to fit your mouth precisely and designed to blend naturally with your facial structure and any remaining teeth. The goal is a result that restores full function and feels completely comfortable from day one.

Reliable Tooth Replacement with Dental Bridges
A dental bridge is a fixed restoration that replaces one or more consecutive missing teeth using artificial teeth anchored by crowns placed on the healthy teeth surrounding the gap. Once cemented in place, a bridge functions like natural teeth and does not need to be removed for cleaning. We offer two bridge options depending on your needs:
Traditional Bridge
The teeth on either side of the gap are prepared to accommodate crowns that anchor the bridge in place. A reliable, long-lasting solution suitable for replacing teeth anywhere in the mouth.
Implant-Supported Bridge
Dental implants serve as the anchors rather than natural teeth, making this a strong option for patients who prefer not to alter their surrounding teeth. It also helps preserve jawbone density in the area where teeth were lost.
Custom Dentures Designed for Your Needs
Dentures are removable appliances designed to replace multiple missing teeth or an entire arch. Today's dentures are more comfortable, better fitting, and more natural-looking than earlier generations of the appliance. We offer several options based on how many teeth need to be replaced and the condition of your remaining oral structures:
01
Full Dentures
Replace a complete upper or lower arch, resting on the gum tissue and relying on natural suction and adhesive for stability.
02
Partial Dentures
Used when healthy natural teeth remain, a partial fills in gaps with a gum-colored base that clips onto existing teeth to maintain alignment and restore appearance.
03
Immediate Dentures
Placed the same day, remaining teeth are extracted, so you are never without teeth during the healing period. Adjustments are expected as the gum tissue and bone reshape over the following weeks and months.
04
Implant-Supported Dentures
Attach directly to dental implants in the jaw for a stable, secure fit that eliminates shifting during eating and speaking while helping preserve the underlying bone structure.
Choosing the Most Appropriate Restoration
The right restoration depends on how many teeth are missing, the condition of your remaining teeth and gums, your bone density, and your personal goals. As a general guide:
- A dental bridge is typically the right fit when one to three consecutive teeth are missing, and the surrounding teeth are healthy enough to serve as anchors
- Partial dentures are often better suited when multiple non-consecutive teeth are missing or when remaining teeth cannot support a bridge
- Full dentures are recommended when all or most teeth in an arch are absent
- Implant-supported options are available for both bridges and dentures and offer greater long-term stability and bone preservation
We will walk through each of these factors with you at your consultation and give you a straightforward recommendation based on what we see clinically.
