How Do Dental Bridges
Work?

Dental bridge are generally used to replace missing teeth, to help maintain the shape of your face, and to alleviate the stress on your bite. A bridge replaces missing teeth with artificial ones that looks great, and they actually bridge the gap where one or more teeth may have been.

Your bridge can be made from gold, alloys, porcelain, or a combination of those materials, and is bonded onto your surrounding teeth for added support.

How Effective Are
Dental Bridges?

The success of any bridge depends on its foundation – your other teeth, your gums, or the bone to which your teeth attached to. With bridges it’s very important to keep your existing teeth, gums, and jaw healthy and strong, and properly maintained.

There are certain conditions and/or scenarios where having dental bridges may not be in your best interest. In such cases you would find this out through your dentist.

Will My Dental
Bridges Fall Out?

There are a few specific way to reduce the risk of your bridges falling out or becoming loose: Visit your dentist regularly so your he or she can look at your bridge to make sure it’s intact or for developing cavities. Use a night guard to mitigate the force when you grind or clench your teeth at night.

Is There an Alternative to Bridges?

Yes. Dental implants actually offer a long-lasting alternative that also preserves the health of your jawbone. They are the closest things to having natural teeth and they don’t need the teeth beside it to be modified. If you want to explore more options for tooth replacement, dental implants services may be something you’re looking for.
