Pros and Cons of Dental Bridges

Pros of Dental Bridges:

• Restore your smile, very natural in appearance.
  
• Restore your ability to properly chew and speak.
  
• Distribute your bite properly by replacing missing teeth.
  
• Prevent remaining teeth from drifting out of position.
  
• Can last 5-7 years and sometimes longer. If you practice good oral hygiene, it is usual that you will see a longer life span of your fixed bridge.
  
• Only requires 2 visits to your cosmetic dentist.

Cons of Dental Bridges:

• Teeth are typically sensitive to very hot or very cold temperatures for about one month after the procedure.
  
• If you do not practice good oral hygiene, you can gather bacteria and have both teeth and gums infection.
