Dental Bridges
In Bowie

Are you struggling with missing teeth and seeking an effective solution? Dental bridges could be the answer you've been searching for. Dental bridges, as their name suggests, bridge the gap created by one or more missing teeth. They consist of two or more crowns for the teeth on either side of the gap — these two or more anchoring teeth are called abutment teeth — and a false tooth/teeth in between. The false teeth are called pontics and can be made from gold, alloys, porcelain, or a combination of these materials. Dental bridges are supported by natural teeth or implants and can restore your smile, your ability to properly chew and speak, and maintain the shape of your face.

Why Should I Get Dental Bridges?

If you're dealing with the discomfort and inconvenience of missing teeth, dental bridges offer a host of benefits. They not only restore your smile, giving you back your confidence, but they also restore the ability to chew and speak properly, something that's often taken for granted until it's compromised. Dental bridges help maintain the shape of your face, preventing the sagging that can occur with missing teeth. They also distribute the forces in your bite properly by replacing missing teeth. Importantly, dental bridges can prevent remaining teeth from drifting out of position, a common issue when you have missing teeth.

The Benefits Of Dental Bridges

Restores Function

Dental bridges restore full functionality to your mouth. With the gap from missing teeth filled, you can chew food properly and speak clearly again. This can significantly improve your quality of life, allowing you to enjoy your favorite foods and converse without discomfort or embarrassment.

Enhances Appearance

A missing tooth can significantly affect your appearance and self-esteem. Dental bridges help enhance your appearance by filling in the gaps in your smile. They are designed to look like your natural teeth, so they seamlessly blend in, giving you a complete, beautiful smile.

Prevents Further Dental Issues

By filling the gap left by missing teeth, dental bridges can help prevent further dental issues. They prevent the remaining teeth from shifting into the empty space, which can lead to a bad bite and other dental problems. By maintaining the shape of your face and alleviating stress on your bite, dental bridges can contribute to overall oral health.

The Dental Bridges Treatment Process

Preparation

Preparation

The first step in getting a dental bridge is the preparation of the abutment teeth. This involves recontouring these teeth by removing a portion of enamel to allow room for a crown to be placed over them. Then, impressions of your teeth are made, which serve as a model from which the dental bridge, pontic, and crowns will be made by a dental lab.

Temporary Bridge

Temporary Bridge

While your custom-made bridge is being created, you'll be fitted with a temporary bridge to protect the exposed teeth and gums.

Placement of Permanent Bridge

Placement of Permanent Bridge

Once your dental bridge is ready, the temporary bridge is removed and the new bridge is checked and adjusted as necessary to achieve a proper fit. Multiple visits may be necessary to check the fit of the metal framework and bite. This is a crucial part of the process as it ensures the bridge fits perfectly and feels comfortable in your mouth.
