What Are Dental Bridges?
Dental bridges are a common restorative solution used to replace one or more missing teeth. A dental bridge consists of an artificial tooth (or teeth) that is anchored by crowns placed on the adjacent teeth. This creates a “bridge” that fills the gap left by the missing tooth, restoring both the function and appearance of your smile. Dental bridges are custom-made to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, providing a comfortable and natural-looking result.
Benefits of Dental Bridges
At Edmonds Elevated Dental, we offer dental bridges in Edmonds, Washington, to help restore your smile and oral health. Some of the key benefits include:
- Improved Function: A dental bridge restores your ability to chew and speak properly, helping you maintain a healthy, balanced bite.
- Natural Appearance: Bridges are designed to match the color, shape and size of your natural teeth, ensuring a seamless look.
- Prevents Shifting: Filling the gap with a bridge prevents neighboring teeth from shifting out of place, which can lead to bite issues and additional dental problems.
- Long-Lasting Solution: With proper care, dental bridges are durable and can last many years, offering a reliable solution for missing teeth.
The Bridge Process
The process of getting a dental bridge begins with Dr. Huy Ngo or Dr. John Park preparing the adjacent teeth by reshaping them for crowns. Impressions are then taken to create a custom bridge that fits perfectly. Once the bridge is ready, it is cemented in place, restoring your smile.
