             When 
            only a few teeth are pulled out, a fixed type treatment using two 
            natural teeth on each side is applied. This treatment requires 
            cutting a little from healthy teeth on both sides. But the results 
            of this treatment, known as "bridge" are quite satisfying. 
            Once implanted teeth get assimilated into the natural teeth,  they 
            are quite similar to real ones. 
             
            Next, in the case of many teeth being pulled out, detachable 
            dentures are adopted. When all of the teeth are removed, full 
            dentures are used. Unfortunately these dentures leave a sense of a 
            foreign body. 
             
            However, with the improvement of living conditions, the desire to 
            pursue more pleasant activities is getting stronger. A pleasant life 
            without health is meaningless. It is very natural that we strive for 
            the best in healthy when it comes to our health. 
             
            In this regard, recent dental science has accomplished a great 
            revolution by developing long awaited treatments that do not require 
            a cutting of the leftover natural teeth and treat natural teeth 
            after many teeth are removed. 
             
            This treatment is called implants. Implants are more advanced teeth 
            than dentures. But this practice requires precise examinations such 
            as patient indication, or general physical check-ups etc., as they 
            go with surgery. 
             
            In spite of that, in the 21st century's senior society, this 
            treatment might achieve the ideal of modern dentistry, which is that 
            natural teeth are being used for good talks over meals and keeping 
            one's youthful appearance.
