What is a Dental Bridge?
A dental bridge is a type of restorative dentistry that patients have relied on for decades. Replacing missing teeth and filling in the gaps left behind by them, dental bridges help restore a smile’s beautiful appearance and allow for greater daily oral function. Using only the highest quality materials, you can expect that your new teeth will look just like the rest so that onlookers never know the difference.
Benefits of a Dental Bridge
There are many great benefits that dental bridges can provide. Although other tooth replacement options are available, dental bridges:
- Help to keep natural teeth in place and avoid dental drift, which can cause a misalignment of teeth and orthodontic intervention.
- Are a non-invasive treatment option for patients with missing teeth.
- Can last a decade or more as long as you commit to taking proper care of your teeth.
- Can be customized based on your smile’s unique needs.
The Process of Getting a Dental Bridge
Dr. White will begin by administering local anesthesia and sedation dentistry (if necessary). After checking to ensure you are comfortable, we will begin altering your healthy abutment teeth so that they are prepped and ready to anchor the bridge in place.
An impression of your mouth is then created and sent to lab technicians, who will fabricate your custom set of teeth. After several weeks, you will return to have your new and improved bridge positioned and secured in place so that your teeth look and feel like new.
