If you are missing one or more teeth, you do not have to continue living with an incomplete smile. No matter if you have lost teeth due to tooth decay, gum disease, injury, or a variety of other reasons, you can replace your missing teeth with a dental bridge.
At Modern Dentistry of Jupiter, dental bridges help restore chewing function, improve appearance, and keep surrounding teeth from shifting out of place.
Call us at (561) 747-7111 or book online to schedule your dental bridge consultation.
A dental bridge is used to fill the space left by one or more missing teeth. Depending on your needs, the bridge may be supported by crowns on neighboring teeth, a framework bonded to the back of nearby teeth, or dental implants.
Dental bridges are designed to restore both appearance and function while helping maintain better alignment across your smile.
There are four types of bridges that are used to restore your smile.
During the initial consultation, we will determine which area needs treatment. An impression of your teeth and X-rays will be taken in order to create bridges to fit your mouth and teeth. Once your permanent bridges return from the lab, they will be ready for placement.
Before undergoing the bridge procedure, the affected area will be numbed with a local anesthetic. Your temporary bridge will be removed, and your teeth will be cleaned. Then, the new permanent bridge will be cemented into place atop the abutment teeth.
Dental bridges are known to last well over 10 years. Brush and floss your new bridges just as you would your natural teeth. We recommend making follow-up appointments so we can check on your progress.
