A missing tooth is more than just a cosmetic concern; it can cause your other teeth to shift, lead to jaw pain, and make eating difficult. A dental bridge is a time-tested restorative solution that “bridges” the gap left by a missing tooth, using the healthy teeth on either side as anchors.
How a Bridge Works
A bridge consists of two crowns placed on the “anchor” teeth, with a false tooth (pontic) suspended between them. This fixed appliance stays permanently in place, meaning you don’t have to remove it for cleaning, unlike a partial denture.
Benefits Beyond Aesthetics
By filling the space, a bridge maintains the shape of your face and ensures your bite is evenly distributed. This prevents unnecessary wear on your remaining teeth and keeps your jaw joint (TMJ) healthy and aligned.
Conclusion:
Restore your confidence and your bite with a custom bridge.
