Dental Bridge

A dental bridge is a prosthetic device that fills a gap created by one or more missing teeth. It consists of two or more crowns for the teeth on either side of the gap and a false tooth/teeth in between. It’s like a bridge in your mouth – but, thankfully, no tolls!

With good oral hygiene and regular check-ups, dental bridges can last anywhere from 5 to 15 years or even longer. So, they’re less like a drawbridge and more like a sturdy, dependable overpass!

Absolutely! Our CAD/CAM technology allows us to design bridges that match the color, shape, and size of your natural teeth. You could say they’re like an undercover agent in your mouth, blending in perfectly.

Yes! After a short adjustment period, you can eat normally. Just be sure to cut hard foods into smaller pieces to avoid putting too much pressure on the bridge. It’s not a food fight, after all!

The procedure itself is typically performed under local anesthesia, so it should be painless. Any discomfort after the procedure can usually be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers. Dental bridges: less painful than a real bridge construction!

Regular brushing, flossing, and dental check-ups will keep your bridge in great shape. Think of it as maintaining a shiny, new car – but for your mouth!

Dental implants and partial dentures are two common alternatives. They each have their advantages, so it’s like choosing between an ocean view or a mountain view. Both are great, but it depends on what you fancy!

Initially, you may notice a slight difference, but your speech should return to normal as your tongue and mouth adjust to the bridge. It’s like learning a new language, the language of a confident smile!
