How do I replace my single missing tooth?

Traditional methods used earlier to replace a single missing tooth
Removable Partial Denture: The main disadvantage with this method is that it is removable and may come away unexpectedly. It can cause further gum disease or tooth decay if not maintained correctly.
Conventional bridge: A conventional bridge replaces the missing tooth by fixing crowns on adjacent teeth on either side of the missing tooth gap. The biggest disadvantage of this method is healthy teeth have to be unnecessarily filed and made into stumps to fix the three unit bridge.
Stick on bridge (Maryland Bridge): These are secured by bonding to the adjacent teeth on either side and are effective at replacing a missing tooth. Unfortunately the retention is not effective and can fall off often. They don't last indefinitely.
