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.
