Restorative Dentistry: Bridges

A beautiful smile gives every person confidence and enables them to smile, eat, and talk healthily. However, losing one tooth can significantly impact food consumption and speech patterns. Moreover, if left untreated with dental therapy, it can affect the alignment of surrounding teeth, leading to further complications.

Dental bridges from Hathorne Family Dental offer a long-standing solution in tooth replacement, restoring the aesthetics and function of a smile. Our bridges are custom-designed to match the natural appearance of your teeth, ensuring a seamless blend with your existing smile.

Advantages of Dental Bridges

Dental bridges offer numerous benefits for individuals with missing teeth. Some of the key advantages include:

Dental bridges restore functional abilities, such as proper chewing and speaking, which are often impaired by tooth loss. This restoration enables individuals to enjoy their favorite foods and communicate with confidence.

Prevention of Shifting Teeth

When teeth are missing, surrounding teeth can shift out of place, leading to further complications. A dental bridge prevents this shifting, maintaining the natural alignment of your teeth and ensuring a healthy, stable bite.

Enhanced Appearance

A well-crafted dental bridge dramatically improves the appearance of your smile, giving you a boost of confidence and self-esteem. Our bridges are custom-designed to match the natural color and shape of your teeth, creating a seamless blend.

Long-Term Solution

With proper care and maintenance, dental bridges can last a lifetime, making them a permanent solution for tooth replacement. This long-term solution eliminates the need for frequent dental visits and procedures.

Dental Bridge Restoration at Hathorne Family Dental

At Hathorne Family Dental, our dental bridge restoration procedure prioritizes comfort, functionality, and aesthetics. Here’s a step-by-step overview of the process:

Initial Examination and Preparation

Upon scheduling an appointment, our dentist examines your teeth to determine the best course of action for bridge placement. We prepare the surrounding teeth for crowns by removing a small amount of enamel and shaping them to accommodate the crowns.

Crown Placement and Bridge Support

The crowns serve as anchors for the bridge, holding it securely in place. By shaping the supporting teeth and placing crowns, we create a stable foundation for the bridge.

Customized Bridge Creation

Next, we take a precise impression of your teeth and send it to our laboratory to create a customized bridge tailored to your unique needs. This ensures a perfect fit and natural appearance.

Temporary Bridge Placement

While the permanent bridge is being crafted, we place a temporary bridge to protect your teeth and maintain functionality.

Permanent Bridge Placement

Once the customized bridge is ready, we schedule a follow-up appointment for placement. Our dentist makes any necessary adjustments to ensure a comfortable, secure fit.

Taking Care of Your Dental Bridge

To ensure the longevity of your dental bridge, proper care and maintenance are crucial. Good oral hygiene practices, such as regular brushing and flossing, prevent tooth decay and gum disease, which can compromise the integrity of the bridge.

Regular dental check-ups at Hathorne Family Dental are essential for monitoring the condition of your bridge. Our experienced dentists will assess the bridge’s fit and function, making any necessary adjustments or realignments to prevent potential problems.
