Dental bridges are used to fill a gap created by one or more missing teeth—thus creating a “bridge” between them. Made up of two crowns on either side of this gap and a false tooth in between, a bridge is supported by the natural teeth or implants around it. There are many benefits to this type of restorative treatment, including:
There are many different types of dental bridges, which your dentist can discuss with you before making a final recommendation. The false teeth themselves—called pontics—can be made from durable materials like gold, alloys, porcelain, or a combination. The procedure of having a bridge placed will involve a number of steps as your dentist will need to send impressions of your teeth to a lab to have your custom bridges created, but your dentist will explain everything to you before beginning treatment.
