Dental Bridges
When you have missing teeth, we recommend talking to your dentist about your options for dental restoration. Dental bridges are a popular method for restoring missing teeth so you can chew your food properly, speak clearly, and smile confidently.
What Type of Dental Bridge Do You Need?
There are several types of dental bridges that you can use depending on the location of your missing teeth. A traditional bridge is used to replace a missing tooth that is situated between two teeth. This type of bridge comprises two crowns that are fitted onto the adjacent teeth and hold the fake tooth in place. This bridge has a crown that connects to only one tooth and holds the fake tooth in place.
How to Care for Your Dental Bridge
With proper care and attention, your dental bridge can last for many years. We recommend brushing your teeth twice a day and flossing regularly. It’s also essential to visit your dentist at least once a year so they can check your teeth and examine your dental bridge to ensure it is still in good shape and functioning as expected.
