Q & A on Dental Bridges in Newark

What Is a Dental Bridge?

A bridge is a special dental apparatus used to replace a missing tooth or teeth. It's composed of a pontic (fake tooth) with a dental crown attached to each side to hold it in place.

The team at Park Place Dental Group permanently bonds the crowns to the teeth next to your missing tooth (your anchor teeth), leaving the prosthetic to literally bridge the gap between your teeth.

Your bridge is custom-built from an impression of your teeth, so it fits perfectly in your mouth and feels just like natural teeth.

Bridges are typically made from tooth-colored materials, like porcelain or composite resin, so it will look just like natural teeth and blend in seamlessly with your smile.

What If My Anchor Teeth Can’t Support Dental Crowns?

If you only have one anchor tooth, or your anchor teeth can't support crowns, your dentist at Park Place Dental Group can utilize an alternative bridge, like a cantilever bridge or a Maryland bonded bridge.

A cantilever bridge holds your pontic in place with a single crown attached to one side, making it a perfect option for patients who have a compromised anchor tooth.

A Maryland bonded bridge holds the pontic in place with a metal or ceramic framework. Your dentist seals that framework to the backside of your anchor teeth, eliminating the need to place crowns on those teeth.

What Are The Benefits of a Dental Bridge?

Your mouth is designed to have all of its teeth working together. By replacing a missing tooth or teeth, bridges can:

  • Improve your ability to eat and speak
  • Prevent your teeth from drifting out of alignment
  • Evenly distribute the force in your bite
  • Decrease your risk of developing gum disease

Dental Bridges in Newark also help to improve your appearance by filling in gaps created by missing teeth.

How Do I Care For My Dental Bridge in Newark?

Because your bridge is permanently sealed to your teeth, you maintain it just like the rest of your smile. If you practice good oral hygiene at home and maintain regular cleanings and exams at Park Place Dental Group, your dental bridge should last a long time.

Don't let missing teeth continue to define your smile. Schedule a Dental Bridge in Newark consultation at Park Place Dental Group today by calling the office.
