Dental Bridges

Are you missing one or more teeth and looking for a permanent solution that will restore your smile? Look no further than dental bridges at Beyond Dentistry of Nashua, where Dr. Esther Kim and her team provide exceptional care and expertise in restorative dentistry.

Understanding Dental Bridges

Dental bridges are prosthetic devices that replace missing teeth by bridging the gap between existing teeth. They consist of two or more crowns that anchor to the neighboring teeth, with artificial teeth attached in between.

At Beyond Dentistry of Nashua, we offer different types of bridges depending on your specific needs. Traditional bridges are the most common, where crowns are placed on either side of the missing tooth and an artificial tooth is bonded between them. Cantilever bridges are used when there is only one adjacent tooth to support the bridge. Maryland bridges use a framework of metal or porcelain bonded to the backs of adjacent teeth for support.

The Benefits of Dental Bridges

Dental bridges offer many benefits beyond just restoring your smile's appearance. They can improve chewing and speaking abilities, prevent remaining teeth from shifting, and maintain facial structure by preventing bone loss in the jaw.

Furthermore, dental bridges are a long-term solution with proper care and maintenance. They can last up to 10-15 years or more, making them a cost-effective option compared to other tooth replacement options.

The Procedure

The process of getting dental bridges typically requires two appointments. During the first appointment, Dr. Kim will prepare the adjacent teeth by reshaping them and taking impressions for your customized bridge. We use advanced technology to ensure precise measurements and a perfect fit.

In the second appointment, we will place the permanent bridge and make any necessary adjustments for comfort and proper bite alignment.

Caring for Your Dental Bridges

Caring for your dental bridges is crucial in ensuring their longevity. Proper oral hygiene habits, such as brushing twice a day, flossing daily, and using an antiseptic mouthwash can help prevent decay and gum disease. It is also essential to schedule regular check-ups with Dr. Kim to monitor the health of your bridges and make any necessary repairs or adjustments.
