If you have a tooth or two missing teeth in the same area, your dentist may recommend a dental bridge or similar tooth replacement option.
Leaving any empty space in your smile can make chewing and smiling challenging. Additionally, missing teeth that are not replaced put you at risk for dental wear and tear.
What Is a Dental Bridge in Smyrna, GA?
A dental bridge is a tooth or teeth cemented between two dental crowns. The crowns cap teeth to the right and left of your gapped smile, allowing the artificial teeth to restore your smile. Your dental bridge is always customized to look natural and restore bite function.
(In some cases, if the supporting teeth are not strong and healthy, your dentist may use a dental implant to secure your bridge.)
We recommend using a small cleaning brush and floss threader to care for your dental bridge. You want to keep your bridge clean and ensure debris does not collect beneath the prosthetic, putting your gum health at risk.
A team member will demonstrate how to best keep your bridge looking beautiful.
