Who Should Consider Dental Bridges?
Dental bridges are an excellent solution for a missing tooth or a section of missing teeth. They are made of metal or porcelain and are a non-invasive and non-surgical method for restoring your smile. A dental bridge may be the perfect option for your situation if you want an economical and long-lasting solution for missing teeth.

There are four types of dental bridges.
The first and most common is the traditional dental bridge, which is anchored by crowns placed onto the adjacent teeth to hold the artificial tooth in place.
The second is a cantilever dental bridge that is much like the conventional bridge except that it only requires one tooth to support the artificial tooth. This particular type of dental bridge is used to replace teeth in the front of the mouth and is very case specific.
The third is called a Maryland bonded bridge, and is similar to the traditional bridge This type uses a porcelain that is bonded to the back of the adjacent teeth rather than using dental crowns to anchor them.

Finally, the dental implant bridge requires an implant to be secured in the jaw to serve as an anchor. This solution usually involves replacing more than one tooth and is connected to the implant.
The dentist must determine which option is ideal for your particular situation. To make this decision, the dentist will perform a complete examination of the area and provide you with their findings to help you determine which procedure you would like to choose. Installing a bridge may take one or two appointments, but once the artificial teeth are restored, they can be used just like regular teeth and look natural.
