Dental Bridge

A dental bridge is a dental restoration used to replace one or more missing teeth by literally bridging the gap between two teeth. The bridge is anchored by crowns on either side of the gap, called abutment teeth, with a false tooth or teeth (pontics) in between.

Procedure for Getting a Dental Bridge

Initial Consultation: The dentist examines your teeth and takes X-rays to assess the need for a bridge and the health of the abutment teeth.
Tooth Preparation: The abutment teeth are reshaped to accommodate the crowns that will hold the bridge in place.
Impressions: An impression of your teeth is taken to create a model for the bridge, pontics, and crowns.
Temporary Bridge: A temporary bridge may be placed to protect the exposed teeth and gums while the permanent bridge is being made.
Fitting the Permanent Bridge: Once the permanent bridge is ready, the temporary bridge is removed, and the new bridge is adjusted and cemented into place.

Benefits of Dental Bridges

Restores Function: Allows you to chew and speak properly.
Maintains Facial Shape: Prevents the sunken appearance that can occur with missing teeth.
Prevents Tooth Movement: Stops adjacent teeth from shifting out of position.
