Can You Get Braces With Missing Teeth?

Wondering if you can get braces with missing teeth? Perfected Smiles in Rochelle Park, NJ, explains how orthodontics works in these cases.

Why Patients Ask About Braces and Missing Teeth

Many patients, both teens and adults, wonder if missing teeth disqualify them from orthodontic treatment. The truth is, braces can still be an option — sometimes even more important — when teeth are missing. Patients in Bergen County searching for orthodontic guidance often want reassurance and answers.

At Perfected Smiles, Dr. Jason Schepis, DMD and Dr. Ryan Maher help patients explore orthodontic solutions tailored to their needs.

How Braces Work With Missing Teeth

Braces move existing teeth into proper alignment, and missing teeth do not always prevent treatment. In fact, orthodontics can help close gaps, preserve space for implants, or prepare the bite for restorative solutions. Each case is unique, and treatment depends on the number and location of missing teeth.

Orthodontics and restorative dentistry often work hand in hand.
