What Are Dental Bridges?

A dental bridge is a fixed dental restoration used to replace one or more missing teeth by joining an artificial tooth definitively to adjacent teeth or dental implants. Dental bridges can greatly improve your ability to chew and speak, restore your smile and maintain the look of your appearance.

Dental bridges play a crucial role in maintaining oral health by filling gaps left by missing teeth, preventing the remaining teeth from shifting, and helping to distribute the forces in your bite properly.

Types of Dental Bridges

Traditional Dental Bridges: These consist of one or more fake teeth held in place by dental crowns on either side. Ideal for patients with natural teeth on both sides of the gap.

Cantilever Dental Bridges: Used when there is only one natural tooth next to the missing tooth gap.

Maryland Dental Bridges: Involve a metal or porcelain framework bonded to the back of adjacent teeth, suitable for replacing front teeth.

Implant-Supported Bridges: These are anchored to dental implants rather than natural teeth, providing a secure and durable solution.

FAQs

What is the dental bridge procedure like?
The procedure typically involves multiple visits. First, the abutment teeth are prepared by removing a portion of enamel to allow room for the crown. Impressions are taken to create a custom bridge, and a temporary bridge is placed. In subsequent visits, the permanent bridge is fitted and adjusted for proper fit and comfort.
The cost varies depending on the type of bridge and materials used. Implant-supported bridges tend to be more expensive than traditional bridges. Our team can provide a detailed quote after an initial consultation.
Maintain your bridge by brushing twice daily, flossing regularly, and visiting your dentist for check-ups and cleanings. Avoid chewing on hard foods to prevent damage.
With proper care, dental bridges can last between 5 to 15 years or even longer.
