What Are Dental Bridges?
Dental bridges are fixed restorative dental devices used to permanently replace one or more missing teeth. There are several different types of dental bridges, including traditional bridges, cantilever bridges, Maryland bridges, and implant supported bridges. While each of these types of dental bridges are slightly different, they all contain the same basic components: a set of artificial teeth that are supported by either the adjacent natural teeth or abutments that are anchored to the jawbone. The type of dental bridge that is right for you will be determined by your dentist who will consider several factors, including your age, the health of your gums, how many teeth are missing, and your personal preferences. If you have any questions about dental bridges or are looking for a dentist in the Auburn/Lewiston area who can provide you with a restorative dentistry procedure to repair your smile, please contact our team at Great Falls Dental Associates today!
Are Dental Bridges The Right Solution For Me?
Dental bridges are a versatile restorative dentistry procedure because they can be used for most patients that have missing teeth. Because there are multiple different kinds of dental bridges that can be used for different oral health situations, there is very rarely a scenario where a patient with missing teeth is not a good candidate for dental bridges. With this being said, there are three main things that dentists will look for when determining if dental bridges are right for you: overall health, oral health, and oral hygiene. Having good overall health is important when getting dental bridges because if you are not in good health, the bridge could lead to other complications. In addition, good oral health is necessary because the bridge relies on your teeth, gums, and jaw for support. Finally, a good oral hygiene routine is necessary for dental bridges in order to keep them clean, effective, and long-lasting!
