Benefits of Dental Bridges

 

Explore the many benefits of dental bridges for your smile and overall wellness.

​

Smile with Renewed Confidence

 

Do you often smile with your lips closed or cover your mouth when you laugh? If so, you’re not alone. It’s not uncommon for patients with tooth loss to feel self-conscious. As such, dental bridges are a popular tooth replacement option.

​

Eat Your Favorite Foods Again

 

Dental bridges are anchored by crowns on either dental implants or natural teeth prepared for the procedure. This strengthens and stabilizes your bite, allowing you to enjoy a more nutritious diet full of fruits, vegetables, and protein.

​

Prevent Future Tooth Loss

 

Left untreated, patients who have experienced tooth loss may notice their remaining teeth start to drift toward open spaces or even become loose over time. Dental bridge treatment helps reduce your risk of future tooth loss by stabilizing your smile.

​

How to Care for Your Dental Bridge

 

Take care of your dental bridge as you would the rest of your smile. Continue brushing your teeth twice a day for at least two minutes at a time. Also, floss once daily to remove food particles and plaque hiding between teeth.

 

Routine teeth cleaning visits with our team also help protect your smile in the long-term by allowing us to remove tartar deposits and detect any issues early. Likewise, avoid chewing ice, popcorn kernels, nuts, caramel, or other foods that are sticky and/or hard.
