Dental Bridge Implant is a dental device used to replace one or missing teeth by filling the empty face with artificial teeth. When a tooth is lost, it can cause problems with chewing, speaking, and the appearance of a smile. A dental bridge helps restore these functions by creating a “bridge” made of false teeth (called pontics) that are held in place by the natural teeth on either side of the gap. These natural teeth, known as abutments, are prepared by placing crowns on them to securely hold the bridge.

Dental Bridge Implant not only improves the look of the smile but also prevents the surrounding teeth from moving out of place, which can cause bite problems and jaw pain. It helps maintain the shape of the face and makes it easier to eat and speak properly. Dental bridges are a popular choice because they are a fixed solution that looks natural. While they do not replace the tooth root, dental bridges provide a reliable way to restore the smile and oral function.

Dental Bridge Implant works by restoring the natural function of the mouth after teeth loss. When a patient loses a tooth, the space it leaves behind can affect how they bite, chew, and even speak. Over time, the surrounding teeth may shift into the gap, causing misalignment and potential jaw discomfort. A dental bridge fills that space with one or more artificial teeth, which are carefully designed to blend in the natural smiles. These replacement teeth are supported on both sides by the healthy teeth next to the gap, creating a stable and secure connection, just like a real bridge is supported on both ends.

The strength of a dental bridge comes from its design. It stays fixed in place, so patients do not remove it like dentures. The bridge helps distribute the bite evenly, making it easier to chew and speak comfortably again. It also helps maintain the natural shape of the face by preventing the sunken appearance that sometimes comes from missing teeth. Over time, the mouth adapts to the bridge, and it begins to feel like part of the natural bite. While it does not replace the tooth root like a dental implant does, it provides a strong, long-lasting solution for restoring both function and appearance.

1. Consultation will be conducted by the doctor to evaluate oral health.
2. X-rays or digital scans will be taken to assess the condition of the surrounding teeth and gums.
3. Local anesthesia will be applied on the treatment area.
4. The abutment teeth will be reshaped by removing a small portion of enamel to prepare them for dental crowns, which will hold the bridge in place.
5. Dental impressions or digital scans will be taken of the teeth to create a custom bridge that fits the bite and matches the colour of natural teeth.
6. The permanent bridge will be fabricated in the lab in 1 to 2 weeks.
7. The temporary material will be removed and replaced with a permanent bridge using strong dental adhesive.
8. A follow-up visit will be scheduled by the doctor to ensure the bridge fits well and functions properly.
