Crown and Bridge Work


Dental bridges are often recommended following tooth loss. Consisting of the replacement tooth along with a crown connected to the sides, dental bridges are one of several options for tooth replacement. Crowns are also quite popular. Positioned on teeth along the sides of the gap to provide support for the dental bridge, crowns really do look similar to natural teeth. Lean on Michael D.

The dental bridge facilitates biting by replacing one or several teeth, ultimately preventing the teeth from drifting to the space created by the missing tooth. The teeth on the sides of the gap are prepared prior to placing the bridge. The dentist will shape the teeth to ensure the crowns support the bridge. Teeth impressions are made so the bridge is designed accurately. Once the crown is ready, the dentist will check the fit and make the necessary alterations. The dental bridge is then cemented into position, bridging the gap between missing teeth.
