An Effective Way to Replace One or More Missing Teeth
A dental bridge is a fixed restoration used to replace missing teeth. It is typically made up of two crowns on either side of the missing tooth or teeth supporting the pontic (false tooth). The bridge is then cemented in place and can be used to restore your smile and complete your bite.
Dental bridges are a popular and effective way to replace one or more missing teeth. Bridges can span the area where one or several teeth are missing, providing stability for your surrounding teeth, restoring your bite and improving the aesthetics of your smile.
If you’re missing one or several teeth, this can be an effective way to replace them. These bridges
can restore your beautiful smile, and they have a number of other benefits, including:
Dental bridges are a great option for replacing missing teeth, but there are other treatment options available. Dental implants are an alternative that can be used to replace one or more missing teeth. If you're considering dental bridges, it's important to consult with Dr. Rauchwerger, one of our experienced dentists, so they can evaluate your condition and determine which type of restoration is right for you.
We provide both traditional bridges which are made up of two crowns and one pontic (false tooth) and cantilever bridges that only require one abutment. Dr. Rauchwergert will examine your mouth and advise you on the best bridge option for you.
Proper oral hygiene is essential for keeping your dental bridge in good condition. Brush twice a day and floss regularly to remove any food debris and plaque from around the bridge.
Regular dental checkups are also important for maintaining your bridges and making sure they are functioning properly.
Traditional bridges are the most common type of bridge. They are made up of two crowns and one pontic (false tooth). The abutment teeth support the bridge and it is cemented in place.
Implant-supported bridges are an option if you have multiple missing teeth. Implants are placed in the jawbone and they support a bridge which spans the area of several missing teeth.
Cantilever bridges are used when there is only one abutment tooth. The false tooth is supported by the crown on just one side.
Maryland bridges are made of a metal framework with a porcelain tooth attached to it. The framework is bonded to the abutment teeth on either side of the missing tooth/teeth.
The first step is to schedule a consultation with our experienced dentist, Dr Rauchwergert. He’ll examine your teeth and gums and discuss the best treatment option for you.
If traditional or cantilever bridges are chosen, we will need to prepare the abutment teeth by removing a small amount of enamel from them. This allows the bridge to fit properly and securely in place.
The bridge is then custom-made to fit your teeth and is fitted and cemented in place.
Once the bridge is placed, you’ll need to make regular follow up visits so our dentist can check that the bridge fits properly and that your gums and teeth are healthy.
Regular brushing and flossing are essential for maintaining the health of your bridge. It's also important to see our dentist regularly so they can check that the bridge is fitting properly and that you don’t have any signs of gum disease or decay.
Before the final bridge is made, we’ll take impressions of your mouth and place temporary crowns on the abutment. This allows you to chew while awaiting the permanent bridge.
When the permanent bridge is ready, it will be fitted and cemented in place. We’ll then check that the bridge fits properly and is comfortable.
Once the bridge is placed, you’ll need to take special care to keep your gums and teeth healthy. Be sure to brush twice a day and floss regularly. It's also important to make regular follow up visits with our experienced dentist in Wellington so they can check that the bridge is fitting properly and that you don’t have any signs of gum disease or decay.
