Dental Bridges - What can you expect?

During the first visit with you cosmetic dentist, the teeth are prepared. Preparation initially involves the removal of a portion of the enamel allowing room for a crown to be placed over it. The second step your cosmetic dentist will take is to take an impression of your teeth, which serves as a clay model for the laboratory, who makes your bridge. Usually, your cosmetic dentist will make a temporary bridge for you to shield the bare teeth and gums, while the laboratory is making your dental bridge.

  • Restore your ability to properly chew and speak.

Are there different types of Dental Bridges?

There are 3 different types of Dental Bridges:
  • Traditional bridges are the most common type of bridge and are typically made of either ceramics, metal or porcelain. It involves creating a crown for your tooth or dental implant on either side of the missing tooth.

  • Cantilever bridges are used when there are adjacent teeth on only one side of the missing tooth or teeth. It is also mainly used in areas that are under much less stress, such as your front teeth.

  • Maryland bonded bridges or Resin-Bonded Bridges are less expensive, and are made of plastic teeth and gums supported by a metal framework.

What are Metal-Free Crowns & Bridges?

Sometimes a beautiful smile takes work that is a bit more involved. If you notice strain when biting down, pain during chewing, or difficulty in speaking due to misaligned or missing teeth, bridges might be the right option for you. They work by literally bridging the gaps between missing teeth, closing spaces with durable, injury-resistant, realistic-looking artificial teeth. Because they are semi-permanent, bridges can be removed only by a dentist but are long-lasting and strong.

Information on Dental Bridges

A dental bridge is a false tooth, which is fused between two crowns to fill in the area left by a missing tooth. These fake teeth can be made of alloys, gold, silver, porcelain or a mixture of all of the above. Dental bridges are supported by your natural teeth or can also be supported by dental implants.

Whether you are looking for a permanent or temporary solution to fill in that empty gap, there is a dental bridge ideally suited for your needs. Three of which are:
  • Traditional bridges are the most common type of bridge and are typically made of either ceramics, metal or porcelain. It involves creating a crown for your tooth or dental implant on either side of the missing tooth.
  • Cantilever bridges are used when there are adjacent teeth on only one side of the missing tooth or teeth. It is also mainly used in areas that are under much less stress, such as your front teeth.
  • Maryland bonded bridges or Resin-Bonded Bridges are less expensive, and are made of plastic teeth and gums supported by a metal framework.
