Restorative Treatment with Dental Bridges

Dental bridges can be removable or secured with dental implants. Secured dental bridges provide more stability and last longer than removable dental bridges. Before treatment, Dr. Patel will examine the teeth and gums. She will then work with you to create a comprehensive, personalized restorative dental treatment plan for the placement of the dental bridge.

We shape natural teeth adjacent to tooth gaps to ensure they can properly support the bridge. Dental impressions will be made of teeth, so your dental bridge is a custom-fit. Dental bridges usually consist of a metal framework covered by porcelain to improve the aesthetics of the patient’s smile. When complete, Dr. Patel ensures that the dental bridge fits properly before attaching it with adhesive cement.

Problems Caused by Missing Teeth

Replacing missing teeth can improve your overall oral health and prevent further oral health problems from developing. Some problems caused by gaps in your smile may include:

  • Shifting teeth
  • Misaligned bite
  • Overcrowding
  • Plaque buildup
  • Receding gums
  • Gum disease
  • Tooth decay

Dental bridges offer multiple benefits to patients. This restoration can:

  • Help support any remaining tooth structure
  • Restore the ability to bite and chew evenly
  • Prevent teeth from shifting
  • Maintain a patient’s face shape

Dental Bridge FAQs

How is a bridge attached?

A dental bridge is usually attached by connecting to the two closest teeth between the bridge. They aim to bridge the gap between teeth when one or more is missing. The bridge anchors to the two closest teeth to the gap. Bridges close the gap between teeth.

Are dental bridges permanent?

Bridges are a permanent treatment to close gaps between teeth. They typically last between 5- 10 years before needing to be replaced, but they can last longer depending on the material and placement in the jaw.

What material is best for dental bridges?

Combining patients’ strengths and aesthetic needs makes the best material choices. Porcelain is one of the most commonly chosen materials. We can also make bridges out of ceramic, metal, gold, and acrylic.
