Replace missing teeth with implants, bridges, or full-arch care planned around your goals at our Armitage Avenue office.
A missing tooth changes more than the look of your smile. You might start chewing on one side, hide your grin in photos, or notice nearby teeth drifting into the open space. Tooth replacement fills the gap with a strong, natural-looking option so eating, speaking, and smiling feel easy again.
Cityview Dental Arts is Dental Group of Chicago’s Bucktown office, and our team helps you compare each option side by side before you decide. As a dentist in Bucktown on Armitage Avenue, we handle most tooth replacement steps in-house, from the first exam through your final follow-up visit.
Every tooth helps hold its neighbors in place and shares the work of chewing. When one is lost, the teeth on either side can tilt into the gap, the tooth above or below may drift, and your bite can slowly change. The jawbone under the empty space can also shrink, because a tooth root no longer stimulates it.
Tooth loss is common, and it adds up over a lifetime. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, about one in four adults age 65 or older has eight or fewer teeth. Replacing a tooth soon after it is lost can help protect your bite, your remaining teeth, and the bone that supports them.
Dr. Bock founded Cityview Dental Arts and continues to treat patients from the Bucktown office today. His long history in the neighborhood means many patients have trusted him with their care for years, now backed by the resources of Dental Group of Chicago.
Our Bucktown dentists offer bridges and dental implants in Bucktown, and we match each option to how many teeth are missing, the health of the teeth nearby, and the bone available for support.
A small post is placed in the jawbone to act as a new root, and a custom crown attaches on top. Single-tooth dental implants in Bucktown stand on their own, so the healthy teeth beside them stay untouched.
A bridge fills the gap with a false tooth held in place by crowns on the teeth next to the space. A dental bridge in Bucktown can typically be finished faster than an implant and works well when the neighboring teeth already need crowns.
When most or all teeth in an arch are missing or failing, a full row of fixed teeth can be secured to four implants. All-on-4 implants in Bucktown stay in place while you eat and talk, and you do not remove them at home.
A denture is a removable set of replacement teeth that rests on the gums. It is a traditional choice for replacing many teeth, and our team can explain how it compares with fixed options so you can weigh comfort, cost, and upkeep.
The best choice depends on your mouth, your schedule, and your budget. During your consultation, we look at several factors with you.
Our blog takes a closer look at how implants compare with traditional solutions if you want more detail. Your dentist will review the options for your situation before any treatment begins.
Your first visit includes an exam and digital scans so we can see the teeth, gums, and bone around the gap. If a damaged tooth still needs to come out, tooth extraction in Bucktown is often the first step. When the bone has thinned, guided bone and tissue regeneration in Bucktown may help rebuild the area before an implant goes in.
For an implant, the post is placed with local anesthesia and then heals for a few months while it fuses with the bone. Once it is stable, we attach a custom crown, bridge, or full set of teeth. For a bridge, we shape the neighboring teeth, take scans, and cement the finished bridge at a later visit. Follow-up appointments let us check your bite and healing.
The cost of replacing a tooth depends on the option you choose and whether you need any preparatory care first. Before treatment, our team reviews your dental coverage with you, explains what your plan may contribute, and gives you a clear estimate for the remaining balance.
If you would like to spread out payments, Cherry financing offers monthly plans. New patients who do not have dental insurance can begin with a $99 visit covering an initial cleaning, a comprehensive exam, and a full set of digital X-rays, which gives us what we need to start planning your new tooth.
Dr. Jerome Bock founded Cityview Dental Arts and still treats patients in our Bucktown office. We are part of Dental Group of Chicago, named a Top Implant Provider for 2025, and our team plans and completes most tooth replacement care in-house, so you are not sent from office to office.
Evening appointments until 8 p.m. Monday through Wednesday make it easier to fit treatment around work. While you are here, our comfort menu offers heated blankets, neck pillows, Netflix, fresh fruit, and a coffee bar to help longer visits feel more relaxed.
It depends on your bone, the teeth beside the gap, and your goals. Many patients choose an implant because it stands on its own, while a bridge can be a faster choice when the neighboring teeth already need crowns.
An implant leaves the nearby teeth untouched and helps keep the jawbone active. A bridge does not require surgery and can typically be completed in a few weeks, so the right fit comes down to your exam and your priorities.
With good brushing, flossing, and regular checkups, the implant post can last for many years and often for decades. The crown on top may eventually need replacing after normal wear.
A bridge is often finished in a few weeks. An implant typically takes a few months, because the post needs time to fuse with the bone before the final crown is attached.
The area is numbed with local anesthesia, so most patients feel pressure rather than pain during placement. Mild soreness for a few days afterward is common and usually eases with over-the-counter pain relief.
Nearby teeth may shift into the gap, your bite can change, and the jawbone under the space may slowly shrink. Replacing the tooth can help prevent these changes.
