Options for single tooth replacements?

It is said that one of the best treatment options to replace extracted teeth is implant treatment. However, due to cost or time constraints, it may not be feasible for patients to undergo this treatment. In such cases, a Maryland bridge can be considered a temporary treatment option until implant treatment is performed. However, if the waiting period is prolonged, the bone will resorb more, and a bone graft may be needed to place the implant. Therefore, the ideal is to place the implant immediately after the tooth extraction. While a Maryland bridge is an option, I recommend that you strive to have the implant placed as soon as possible after the tooth extraction.
