If you’re missing one to a few teeth, a dental bridge is an affordable, seamless, and minimally invasive way to achieve a fuller smile. From improving the way you look and feel about your smile to better ensuring alignment, dental bridges have an extensive history of exceptional results among cosmetic dentists.
At Lumi Family Dentistry, our Sachse dentists can discuss everything you need to know about dental bridges: their advantages and disadvantages, how they work, the costs of getting one – and much more!
A dental bridge is a dental appliance that joins a gap between two healthy natural teeth, replacing a missing tooth or teeth. It comprises a false tooth or teeth, called pontics, attached to crowns placed on the existing teeth on either side of the gap and prosthetic teeth between the pontics. Dental bridges are typically made of porcelain and other biocompatible materials that are custom-made to match the color and shape of your natural teeth. Our dentists can help you determine if a dental bridge is the right option for you and your oral health goals at your in-person consultation.
Dental bridges are a popular option for those missing one or more teeth. Not only do they improve the appearance of your smile, but they also offer several benefits for your oral health. One of the primary advantages of dental bridges is that they can help prevent other teeth from shifting out of place, which can cause further dental problems. Additionally, bridges can make speaking and eating more accessible, significantly improving your quality of life. Lastly, dental bridges are often more affordable than other tooth replacement options, making them an excellent choice for those on a budget.
Other Dental Services
Installing a dental bridge involves several steps to ensure reliability, comfort, and longevity. First of all, our dentist will prepare the teeth adjacent to the gap to be bridged by reshaping and removing some of the enamel so that they can fit crowns over them. Then, our dentist will take impressions of the teeth and create a model to ensure the bridge fits perfectly. Afterward, we’ll place a temporary bridge while your final bridge is produced. Finally, our dentist will permanently fix the bridge by cementing it. Many patients can benefit from this treatment as a way to improve their oral health and appearance.
