Dental Bridges Benefits

Dental bridges are a long term solution for many dental issues. This treatment can last for up to 15 years or more. A dental bridge literally bridges the gap between teeth caused by missing teeth. The crowns of two teeth are used to form a seamless bridge transitioning from the false tooth insert to the clients natural teeth. Read more about the background of dental bridges and its benefits. Call our Delray Beach dental office for more information on dental bridges.
During the first visit for getting a dental bridge, the abutment teeth are prepared. Preparation involves recontouring these teeth by removing a portion of enamel to allow room for a crown to be placed over them. Next, impressions of the teeth are made, which serve as a model from which the bridge, pontic, and crowns will be made by a dental lab. Your dentist will make a temporary bridge to wear to protect the exposed teeth and gums while the bridge is being made.
