303-659-1825At Brighton Restorative Dentistry, we understand how missing teeth can affect your confidence and oral health. Dental bridges are an effective solution for restoring your smile and maintaining proper dental function. Our team is committed to providing you with the highest quality care.
What Are Dental Bridges?
Dental bridges consist of two or more crowns for the teeth on either side of the gap, known as abutment teeth, with a false tooth or teeth in between. These false teeth, called pontics, can be made from gold, alloys, porcelain or a combination of these materials and are supported by natural teeth or implants.
Benefits of Dental Bridges
Choosing dental bridges offers several benefits, including:
- Restored Smile: A complete, natural-looking smile that boosts your self-esteem.
- Improved Speech: Replacing missing teeth helps improve clarity in speech.
- Better Chewing: Dental bridges restore your ability to chew properly, enhancing your overall nutrition.
- Maintained Facial Shape: They prevent the sunken appearance that can occur with missing teeth.
- Stability of Adjacent Teeth: Bridges prevent remaining teeth from shifting.
Our Process for Dental Bridges
When you come see our dentists, our process ensures comfort and precision. The journey begins with a comprehensive consultation with Dr. Mark Ehrhardt or Dr. John Gittins to determine the best treatment plan for your unique needs. During this initial visit, we will take impressions of your teeth to create a model, which will guide the creation of your custom bridge.
Once your bridge is ready, we will ensure it fits perfectly. The bridge will then be secured, restoring your smile and function. We use advanced techniques and materials to ensure your bridge is durable and blends seamlessly with your natural teeth.
We are dedicated to making your experience as comfortable as possible. Our team will provide you with detailed aftercare instructions to help you maintain your new dental bridge and keep your smile healthy.
