We know you\u2019re wondering about the procedure \u2014 like what is a dental bridge? And how are dental bridges applied, anyway? Let\u2019s take a look at these and other important questions about tooth replacement below.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What Is a Dental Bridge?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A dental bridge is a set of dental crowns firmly attached to each other. Together, they replace one or more missing teeth. A sturdy crown is applied to each natural tooth surrounding the gap, and the replacement teeth fill the space in between. The dental bridge restores the patient\u2019s ability to chew and speak. It also prevents the surrounding teeth from drifting out of place. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How Is a Dental Bridge Applied?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With CEREC technology, it\u2019s possible that your dental bridge can be created and placed in just one visit to the dentist\u2019s office. First, the teeth surrounding the gap will be prepared to receive the dental crowns. This process involves reshaping the tooth enamel to make room for the crowns that fit on top. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After the natural teeth have been prepared, your dentist will take digital impressions your teeth and feed this information into the CEREC milling machine. The dental crowns are created one by one out of smooth, beautiful dental porcelain. To apply the bridge, the anchoring crowns are applied on the natural teeth. The prosthetics fill in between.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Caring for Your Bridge<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can expect your bridge to last for many years with proper maintenance. Keep up with your good oral hygiene habits, like brushing for two minutes, twice a day and flossing daily. As you clean, concentrate on the area at the base of the bridge to remove food particles and prevent plaque and tartar buildup. Your bridge cannot develop cavities or infection, but the teeth and gums surrounding it are just as vulnerable to these issues as ever. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Don\u2019t Delay Tooth Replacement &#8212; Contact Us Today<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you are missing one or more teeth, their replacement is crucial for your continued health and wellbeing. The repercussions of missing teeth are significant \u2014 but a dental bridge restores your ability to chew and speak with ease, and to smile confidently once again.
