Dental bridges are dental devices that are used to fill the gap caused by missing teeth. The bridge is attached to the remaining teeth on each side of the gap, which serves as an anchor point for the replacement tooth or teeth. They are typically made of porcelain or ceramic materials and are designed to be white and blend seamlessly with the natural teeth in a patient’s mouth.
With proper care and maintenance, dental bridges can be a long-lasting and effective solution for people who are missing one or more teeth.
The process of getting a dental bridge generally involves multiple appointments. During the first appointment, Dr. Uram will prepare the anchor teeth by removing a small amount of enamel to make room for the bridge to be attached. Impressions of the teeth and gums will be taken and sent to a dental laboratory, where the bridge will be custom-made to fit the patient’s teeth and mouth.
At a follow-up appointment, Dr. Uram will fit the bridge and adjust it as necessary to ensure a comfortable and natural-looking fit. By filling the gap caused by missing teeth, dental bridges can help to improve a patient’s oral health, chewing ability, speech, and confidence.
Less invasive than dental implants with more support than partial dentures, tooth bridges have several advantages that make them a sought-after option for tooth replacement with our patients.
For instance, dental bridges are fixed in place, so there is no risk of embarrassing or uncomfortable slippage. Also, our dental bridge process is time and cost-effective; the entire process can be completed in just a few weeks.
While patients can count on traditional bridges to create a seamless, natural look, they can also prevent surrounding teeth from shifting and relieve jaw pain and stress by reinstating bite balance.
Dental bridges are an affordable and efficient solution for patients with one or more missing teeth. For the bridge to be well supported, the surrounding teeth must be healthy to bear dental crowns. This ensures you enjoy the benefits of the bridge for as long as possible without risking unnecessary decay or damage.
During your initial consultation, we assess the health of your teeth and gums to ensure you receive a lasting tooth replacement. We may suggest alternatives, such as dental implants or dentures, to make sure your needs are met and your smile is confidently restored.
If you’ve suffered tooth loss, we know how disheartening it can feel. Don’t lose hope. Our dental bridges in Middletown, DE, might be the perfect solution to restore your smile.
