replacement teeth
Prosthetic dental set
Replacement teeth are artificial teeth that substitute for natural ones that have been lost or extracted.
The term covers dentures, dental implants, bridges, and other prosthetics designed to restore function and appearance: She's saving up for replacement teeth after years of neglect.
In animals, replacement teeth refers to the natural process of new teeth growing in as old ones fall out—sharks continuously produce replacement teeth throughout their lives.
