Traditional Dental Bridge is a fixed dental restoration used to replace one or more missing teeth. It consists of a false tooth (pontic) held in place by dental crowns that are cemented onto the natural teeth next to the gap. These supporting teeth are prepared to securely anchor the dental bridge.

This type of dental bridge offers several benefits: it is natural-looking, fixed in place (unlike removable dentures), and can typically be completed in 2 to 3 visits. It helps restore your smile, chewing function, and prevents surrounding teeth from shifting. With proper care, it is a long-lasting and effective solution for missing teeth.

Traditional Dental Bridge works by using the natural teeth on either side of a missing tooth as support. These adjacent teeth, called abutment teeth, are first reshaped and covered with dental crowns. A pontic (false tooth) is then attached between these crowns to fill the gap.

The process typically begins with a consultation and treatment planning, including X-rays and possibly a digital or physical tooth impression. The dentist prepares the support teeth and takes precise measurements using digital intraoral scanners or traditional molds. These are sent to a dental laboratory, often equipped with CAD/CAM technology and computerized milling machines, to design and fabricate the custom dental bridge.

Once ready, the temporary crowns are removed and the final dental bridge is fitted, adjusted, and permanently bonded in place. The result is a secure, natural-looking replacement that restores both function and appearance.
