Can You Get Braces with Missing Teeth?
Yes! You can often get braces or clear aligners even if you have missing teeth. In fact, orthodontic treatment can be an important part of creating the right space and alignment for your future smile.
At Impressions Orthodontics, we carefully assess your teeth, gums, bite, and the location of any missing teeth before recommending treatment. Depending on your individual needs, orthodontics may be used to:
- Close spaces where teeth are missing
- Create or maintain the ideal space for a future dental implant or bridge
- Improve the alignment of your remaining teeth
- Prepare your smile for restorative dental treatment
Braces or Spark clear aligners may all be options depending on your situation. We work closely with your dentist when additional dental treatment is needed to help coordinate your overall care.
If you’re in South West or North West Calgary and wondering whether orthodontic treatment is possible with missing teeth, we’d love to help. Book a consultation with Impressions Orthodontics for a personalized assessment and treatment plan.
