Today's Conversation Is About:

Bridges (Dental)

A dental bridge is a fixed (non-removable) appliance and is an excellent method to replace missing teeth.

There are numerous kinds of bridges. We will go over the very best options for your particular case. The "traditional bridge" is the most popular type and is typically made from porcelain fused to metal. These fixed bridges are most popular because they resemble your natural teeth. This type of bridge includes two crowns that go over 2 anchoring teeth (abutment teeth) and are connected on either side of the synthetic teeth (pontics), filling the space developed by one or more missing teeth.

Dental bridges are highly resilient and will last years with correct home care; however, they might have to be replaced or re-cemented due to regular wear.

Reasons For Considering A Fixed Bridge:

• Restore chewing and speaking ability.


• Maintain facial shape.


• Fill area of missing teeth.


• Prevent remaining teeth from drifting out of position.


• Upgrade from a removable partial denture to a permanent dental appliance.


• Restore your smile.

What does getting a Fixed Bridge include?

Getting a bridge usually needs 2 or more visits. While the teeth are numb, the two anchoring teeth are prepared by removing a portion of enamel to allow for a crown. Next, a extremely accurate impression (mold) is made which will be sent to a dental lab where the bridge will be produced. In addition, a temporary bridge will be made and used for numerous weeks until your next visit.

At the 2nd visit, your permanent bridge will be carefully inspected, adjusted, and cemented to accomplish a appropriate fit and comfortable bite.

You will receive care guidelines at the conclusion of your treatment. Proper brushing, flossing and routine dental visits will help in the life of your brand-new permanent bridge.

Why Should You Consider Dental Bridges?

This is an option for filling the space produced by a missing tooth. It is formed to appear like the missing tooth, and it takes its place in the mouth. The sides of a bridge uses the two surrounding teeth for assistance, hence the name. A bridge replaces the missing tooth, both functionally and cosmetically. Bridge work is as much an art as it is an exact science. The materials used might be gold alloys, porcelain bonded to metal alloy, or all ceramic material. The choice of material depends on requirements for strength, wear, and/or esthetics.

It is important that a missing tooth be replaced as soon as possible for a number of reasons. If not treated the teeth surrounding the space begin to shift inward, developing a whole domino effect of bad things. Teeth utilize their neighbors for assistance, and, with one missing, they start to "fall." As this worsens the bite changes in reaction to the pressure. This can eventually result in issues with the entire jaw, e.g. TMJ. The surrounding teeth degrade and it is simply a matter of time before they, too, are lost. Gum disease ends up being a serious problem, with the difficulty of treatment enhancing as the neglect continues.
