A dental bridge is an excellent solution to replace gaps left by missing teeth. Comprising one or more prosthetic teeth, a bridge is anchored securely to the natural teeth on either side—hence its name. This type of restoration restores both the functionality and aesthetics of your smile. Crafting a bridge combines artistic skill with scientific precision. Various materials can be used, including gold alloys, porcelain fused to metal, or all-ceramic substances tailored to blend seamlessly with your natural tooth shade. The choice of material is influenced by factors such as strength, durability, and desired appearance. The bridge procedure begins with an initial consultation where our skilled dentist evaluates your oral health and recommends the most appropriate type of bridge for you. In the case of traditional bridges, the adjacent teeth need to be reshaped to accommodate the crowns. Accurate impressions will be taken to ensure a custom-fit bridge is crafted. While your custom bridge is manufactured, a temporary one will be placed to safeguard the exposed areas. Once the final bridge is ready, it will be fitted meticulously before being secured either with cement or implants. Our dentist will verify that the bridge is comfortable and functions effectively, making any needed adjustments for the best fit and appearance.
