Dental Bridge is a fixed dental device that replaces one or more missing teeth by literally “bridging” the gap between 2 natural teeth. When a tooth is lost due to injury, decay, or other dental problems, a gap is left in the mouth that can cause several issues, including difficulty chewing, speech problems, and changes in the shape of the face. Dental Bridge fills this gap with artificial teeth that look, feel, and function like the natural teeth.

Dental Bridge is supported by 2 natural teeth on either side of the missing tooth or teeth. These natural teeth, called abutment teeth, are carefully shaped and covered with dental crowns. The false tooth, called the pontic, is attached to these crowns and fills the empty space. Dental Bridge is made from strong materials such as porcelain, ceramic, metal alloys, or a combination of these, which makes it both durable and natural-looking. It is designed to last many years when cared for properly.

By restoring the missing teeth, Dental Bridge improves the way the mouth looks and works. It allows patients to chew food properly again, speak clearly, and smile confidently without worrying about gaps. Dental Bridge also helps keep your remaining natural teeth in their proper positions by preventing them from shifting into the empty spaces left by missing teeth.

Dental Bridge fills the empty space where a tooth is missing by connecting a false tooth to the real teeth on each side of the gap. These nearby teeth act as strong supports to hold the bridge in place. Once Dental Bridge is fitted, it becomes a permanent part of the mouth and feels very similar to natural teeth. Over time, patients likely forget it is even there because it blends in so well with other teeth.

1. Consultation will be conducted by the dentist to examine the condition of the teeth, gums and the gap.
2. Local anesthesia will be applied to the teeth area.
3. Impressions of the teeth will be taken to design the custom bridge.
4. Temporary dental bridge will be given to protect the teeth and keep the space stable.
5. Patients will return to the clinic and the permanent dental bridge will be fixed in place using special dental cement.
