Bridges
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.
