What To Expect During Dental Bridge Placement
Bridge Check & Adjustment
Once your permanent bridge is ready, usually within a few weeks, you’ll come into the office to have the bridge checked for proper fit. Minor adjustments may be made by your dentist, if necessary, to ensure that your bridge looks and feels natural. If the bridge requires larger adjustments, it will be sent back to the lab for further refinement.
Benefits Of Dental Bridges
Prevent Other Teeth from Shifting
Your pearly whites should fit perfectly like a puzzle, and the key to keeping them in place is more than just strong tooth roots! Did you know that your chompers rely on other neighboring teeth for balance and support? When tooth loss occurs, it's not uncommon for the remaining teeth may start tilting toward those open spots. Filling gaps with an artificial dental bridge is the best way to maintain your smile structure. Not only will this help keep everything sturdy, but it will prevent further shifting or future losses!
Enhance Chewing Capabilities
Eating should be a joy, not an ordeal! If you’ve experienced tooth loss and have lost the ability to enjoy your favorite foods, we have great news. A tooth bridge eliminates discomfort and imbalance associated with eating without a complete set of teeth. Don’t let shifting teeth or food particles collecting in empty sockets take the pleasure out of mealtimes any longer. Speak to our friendly team today about arranging an appointment for easy feasting again!
Improve Speaking Abilities
When you miss a tooth, there's more at stake than your smile. A missing tooth can also affect how well you communicate. With a complete set of pearly whites to help form words in your mouth, speaking with clarity may be easier and even lead to lisping or difficulty pronouncing certain sounds. To put an end to this struggle, dental bridges are often used as an effective way to restore speech loss due to teeth loss. So, don't let the struggle of missing teeth get between you and meaningful conversations!
