What is a Dental Bridge?
A dental bridge gets its name because it literally bridges the gap created by one or multiple missing teeth in a row. Crowns are placed on either side of the gap, and these are bonded to prosthetic teeth in the middle. While bridges of the past were bulky and obvious, today’s are much smaller, lifelike, and comfortable, which is why they are such a popular option.
Types of Dental Bridges
Because no two patients experience tooth loss the same, we’re pleased to offer two types of dental bridges so we can perfectly tailor our care to someone’s needs and situation.
Traditional Dental Bridge
This prosthetic involves fitting the remaining natural teeth with crowns, which are connected to and provide the anchor for the new teeth. These can usually be placed in two to three appointments and be fixed or removable based on the patient’s preference.
Implant Bridge
Rather than relying on natural teeth to give a bridge its stability, with this type, dental implants are placed in the jawbone and attached to the replacement teeth, making them extremely strong and secure. This allows us to preserve more of a patient’s remaining tooth structure and also creates a seamless, natural-looking result.
