Dental Bridges
When gaps in your smile due to missing teeth affect your confidence and oral health, dental bridges emerge as a beacon of hope. This innovative solution is more than just a procedure; it is a step towards reclaiming the joy and freedom that come with a full, vibrant smile.
Dental bridges connect the spaces left by missing teeth, offering a seamless transition that restores your smile’s continuity. Composed of crowns for the adjacent teeth to the side of the gap and a pontic or false tooth, in between, these bridges are crafted from materials that promise durability and aesthetic appeal, such as porcelain, gold or a mix of both.
Embarking on the journey towards receiving a dental bridge involves personalized care tailored to your unique needs. Initially, the teeth that will anchor the bridge, known as abutment teeth, are prepared. This preparation involves adjusting the teeth’s shape to ensure the crowns fit perfectly. Following this, we take impressions of your teeth, serving as a blueprint for crafting your custom bridge, while a temporary bridge safeguards your smile in the interim. The final fitting of your bridge signifies the near completion of your journey. After ensuring a perfect match for comfort and function, the bridge is securely bonded, marking a milestone in your journey towards oral health restoration.
Beyond the obvious aesthetic enhancement, dental bridges are instrumental in preserving the natural contour of your face and preventing the shifting of remaining teeth. They revive your ability to chew and speak with ease and distribute bite forces evenly, safeguarding your oral health.
Deciding if a dental bridge is the ideal solution for you, is a collaborative process. We delve into your oral health history, current condition and aspirations to craft a path forward that aligns with your goals. Your questions and concerns are the compass that guides our journey together.
