A bridge is an ideal method to fill the space created by missing teeth. A bridge is one or more artificial teeth that are cemented into place using the real teeth on either side for support—hence the name. A bridge replaces the missing tooth both functionally and cosmetically. Bridgework is as much an art as it is an exact science. Bridge materials include gold alloys, porcelain bonded to metal alloy, or all-ceramic material made to match your natural tooth color. The choice of material depends on requirements for strength, wear, and/or esthetics. A dental bridge procedure begins with a consultation during which our experienced dentist will assess your dental health and discuss the most suitable bridge for your case. For traditional bridges, the teeth adjacent to the gap will be prepared by reshaping them to fit the crowns. Impressions of your teeth will be taken to create a custom bridge. While your permanent bridge is being made, a temporary bridge will be placed to protect the exposed teeth and gums. Once your custom bridge is ready, it will be carefully fitted before being permanently cemented or attached to implants. Our dentist will ensure that the bridge fits comfortably and functions properly. Any necessary adjustments will be made for optimal comfort and appearance. Benefits of a Dental Bridge: Restores Missing Teeth Dental bridges are an effective solution for replacing one or more missing teeth, restoring both functionality and aesthetics to your smile. Improves Chewing and Speaking Missing teeth can make eating and speaking difficult. A dental bridge helps restore your ability to chew food properly and speak clearly. Prevents Teeth from Shifting A missing tooth can cause the surrounding teeth to shift out of alignment, leading to bite issues and further dental problems. A bridge keeps your teeth in their proper position. Enhances Smile Aesthetics A dental bridge fills in the gap left by missing teeth, creating a natural-looking, seamless smile. The bridge is custom-designed to match the color and shape of your existing teeth. Durable and Long-Lasting With proper care, dental bridges are highly durable and can last for many years. Materials like porcelain or ceramic provide strength and resistance to wear and tear. Preserves Facial Structure Missing teeth can cause the face to sag and lose its natural contours. A dental bridge helps maintain the integrity of your facial structure, preventing sunken cheeks and other signs of aging. Prevents Bone Loss Missing teeth can lead to bone loss in the jaw over time. By filling the gap, a dental bridge can help prevent further deterioration of the jawbone. Non-Invasive Alternative to Implants While dental implants are a great option for some patients, dental bridges offer a less invasive solution. There is no need for surgery, and the procedure is quicker and generally more affordable. Quick and Convenient Treatment Dental bridges can usually be placed in two visits to your dentist. In most cases, you can begin enjoying your restored smile within just a few weeks. Restores Confidence Missing teeth can impact self-esteem, causing embarrassment or self-consciousness when smiling. A dental bridge provides a confidence-boosting solution that restores both appearance and function.
