What are Dental Bridges?

As the name implies, dental bridges “bridge the gap” caused by a missing tooth or row of teeth. Dental bridges can be made from ceramics, porcelain, resin, or metals such as cobalt and gold. Ceramic is the recommended material for replacing front teeth. It can simulate the translucency of natural teeth and be tailored to match your natural color.

A dental bridge consists of two main components: abutments and pontics. Abutments are natural teeth or dental implants on either side of the gap that support and secure the bridge in place, whereas pontics are artificial teeth that fill the area left by missing teeth.

Importance of Replacing a Lost Tooth

There are various reasons why missing teeth must be replaced. The longer a tooth is missing, the closer neighboring teeth become to the hole, affecting speech and chewing. Over time, the bone where the tooth was will degenerate.

Missing teeth may also change the facial contour. As a result, many people who have lost teeth feel anxious about their smiles. A dental bridge allows you to keep your natural teeth while still displaying a confident smile.

Who Qualifies for Dental Bridges?

If you have the following criteria, a dental bridge is a good restorative choice:

• Missing teeth: You are lacking one or more teeth at once. The dental bridge can partially repair the gap.

• Bone loss: Our dentists recommend bridges for patients who have jawbone loss or a severe injury that requires implant placement.

• Good oral health: To be a good candidate for a dental bridge, you must first be healthy. This means no dental problems, such as gum disease or tooth decay.

• Surrounding strong natural teeth: To work properly, a dental bridge must be supported by strong natural teeth on each side of the gap.
