Dental Bridges

What Are Dental Bridges?

Dental bridges are prosthetic devices used to replace one or more missing teeth. They consist of artificial teeth, called pontics, anchored by crowns on adjacent natural teeth or dental implants. Bridges are an excellent option for restoring chewing function, maintaining facial structure, and enhancing the overall appearance of your smile.

Types of Dental Bridges

1. Traditional Bridges: Pontics are supported by dental crowns on adjacent natural teeth.

2. Cantilever Bridges: Suitable when there is only one adjacent tooth available for support.

3. Maryland Bridges: Pontics are held in place by a metal or porcelain framework bonded to adjacent teeth.

4. Implant-Supported Bridges: Pontics are secured to dental implants, providing a stable and long-lasting solution.

Benefits of Dental Bridges

1. Restored Functionality: Bridges allow for proper chewing, speaking, and facial support.

2. Aesthetic Improvement: Bridges enhance the appearance of your smile by filling in gaps left by missing teeth.

3. Preservation of Jaw Structure: Prevents the shifting of adjacent teeth and helps maintain the natural shape of your face.

4. Customization: Bridges are customized to match the color, shape, and size of your natural teeth.

The Dental Bridge Placement Process

1. Consultation: Our dentist assesses your oral health, discusses your preferences, and determines the most suitable bridge type.

2. Tooth Preparation: If traditional bridges are chosen, the adjacent teeth are prepared by removing a small amount of enamel.

3. Impressions: Precise impressions are taken to ensure the bridge fits seamlessly within your bite.

4. Temporary Bridge: A temporary bridge may be placed while the permanent one is being fabricated.

5. Permanent Placement: Once the permanent bridge is ready, it is bonded in place, restoring your smile.
