What is a Dental Bridge?

A dental bridge is a dental restoration used to replace one or more missing teeth by “bridging” the gap between remaining teeth. It consists of a false tooth (or teeth) called a pontic, which is held in place by abutment teeth on either side of the gap. These abutment teeth are often fitted with crowns to support the bridge, creating a secure and stable structure.

How Does a Dental Bridge Work?

Dental bridges work by anchoring the false tooth to the surrounding teeth, restoring function and appearance. The bridge is custom-designed to fit naturally within your smile and is often made from materials like porcelain, ceramic, or zirconia, which mimic the look of natural teeth. Depending on your needs, a bridge can be supported by natural teeth or by implants for additional stability. This structure allows you to chew, speak, and smile confidently, as it feels and functions much like your natural teeth.

Types of Dental Bridges at Moonflower Dentistry:

Choosing the right bridge is essential to achieving a long-lasting and comfortable result. At Moonflower Dentistry, we offer:

Traditional Dental Bridges: A fixed dental bridge supported by crowns on either side of the gap.
Cantilever Dental Bridges: Ideal for situations where there is only one neighboring tooth for support.
Implant-Supported Dental Bridges: For greater stability and durability, these bridges are anchored by dental implants.

Our team will help you determine which type of bridge is best for your situation, considering factors like your bone structure, neighboring teeth, and aesthetic goals.

What to Expect During Your Dental Bridge Procedure:

When you choose Moonflower Dentistry, you can expect a seamless experience from start to finish. Here’s what the dental bridge procedure entails:

Initial Consultation: We’ll assess your oral health and determine the best approach for your new tooth bridge.
Preparation: If you’re opting for a traditional bridge, the teeth adjacent to your gap will be prepared to receive crowns. For implant-supported bridges, we’ll discuss the necessary steps to anchor your bridge effectively.
Digital Impressions and Fabrication: Using scanned impressions, we capture precise digital models to ensure your bridge fits comfortably and looks natural.
Placement: Once your custom ceramic dental bridge is ready, it will be placed securely to provide you with full function and confidence.

With our same-day technology, we make this process as efficient as possible, minimizing downtime and maximizing quality.

Ideal candidates for a bridge have healthy surrounding teeth or implants to support it. Whether you’re considering a porcelain bridge or an implant-supported bridge, Dr. Carrazana will work with you to determine the best option for your oral health.
