Dental Bridges
SERVICE OVERVIEW
Dental bridges are dental prostheses used to replace one or more missing teeth. They are designed to restore chewing function and improve the aesthetic appearance of the smile. A dental bridge consists of artificial teeth, called pontics, that are attached to structures that cover adjacent teeth, known as abutments.
There are different types of dental bridges:
Fixed Bridge: It remains in place and can only be removed by a dentist. Pontics and abutments can be made of materials such as ceramic, porcelain fused to metal, metal, or composite resin.
Removable Bridge:
It can be removed by the patient for cleaning. They are usually attached to the teeth with hooks or clips.

Dental bridges are an option to replace missing teeth, improving chewing function and restoring dental aesthetics.
The process of placing a dental bridge is usually completed in two visits to the dentist. At the first visit, the abutment teeth are prepared and an impression is taken. On the second visit, the permanent bridge is placed.
Dental bridges should be cared for with good oral hygiene, including regular brushing and flossing. It is also important to schedule regular dental checkups.
