DENTAL Bridges

For larger gaps where several teeth are missing, a dental bridge may be recommended. A dental bridge is a set of false teeth that are made to replace teeth that have either been knocked out or had to be removed for other purposes. For bridges to hold, crowns are placed on the adjacent healthy teeth and adhered to the bridge for stability.

If a bridge is deemed suitable for the patient, the teeth on either side of the gap will be prepped in order to be able to accommodate the bridge.

Impressions of the teeth will then be made and shipped off to a lab for the bridge to be constructed. It will then be sent back to the dentist where it will be cemented in place in the patient’s mouth, should it be a proper fit.
