Fill the Gaps of 1 To 3 Missing Teeth

A dental bridge revitalizes both the aesthetics and health of your mouth, utilizing a false tooth to cover gaps, supported by dental implants, your natural teeth, or a combination of both. Often called a ‘fixed partial denture,’ bridges are permanently bonded or cemented to your teeth, eliminating the need for removal during sleep or cleaning. Filling tooth gaps is crucial not only for appearance but also for long-term oral health. Missing teeth can hinder speech, chewing, and cause other teeth to shift out of place. With a dental bridge, you can restore functionality and maintain a healthy smile.

The Time-Endured Benefits Of Dental Bridges

The absence of a tooth or teeth can lead to self-consciousness and discomfort. Dental bridges provide an excellent solution to restore your smile’s natural appearance and comfort. Moreover, they offer long-term benefits for your remaining teeth and contribute to the overall bone health of your mouth. In summary, here are the advantages of a dental bridge:

Comfort

These clear advantages have an immediate impact on our well-being. Regain a sense of normalcy and confidence as you feel and look like yourself once again. Smile and eat with self-assurance, reclaiming the cherished smile you know and love. The discomfort and inconvenience associated with missing teeth can be alleviated by dental bridges, providing a long-lasting solution. With proper care, dental bridges can offer relief for over ten years, allowing you to enjoy life without the limitations caused by gaps or discomfort.

Tooth health

Your teeth play a vital role in supporting each other and maintaining your facial structure. When teeth are missing, it can impact your bite and create space for other teeth to shift out of position. A dental bridge prevents teeth from moving around, minimizing the risk of decay, periodontal disease, jaw pain, and TMJ disorder caused by misaligned teeth. By stabilizing your dental alignment, a dental bridge safeguards your oral health and overall well-being.

Bone health

Maintaining healthy and stable teeth is crucial for promoting the well-being of your jawbones. When dental health declines, the bone and tissues supporting our teeth may also suffer. By stabilizing your dental health with a dental bridge, you can slow down the rate of bone loss caused by missing teeth, safeguarding your oral and overall health.

The Cost Of A Dental Bridge In Ajax

The cost of a dental bridge can differ significantly among patients. Under a typical insurance plan, the average cost of a dental bridge ranges from $800 to $1200+. For those without insurance, a reasonable estimate for a dental bridge would be around $2000 to $3000 and above. Please keep in mind that the exact cost will depend on individual factors and treatment needs.

What goes into determining the cost of a dental bridge?
  • The type of bridge and the material utilized in its construction.
  • The number of missing teeth that the bridge will replace.
  • The location and complexity of the procedure.
  • The condition of the adjacent teeth to the gap.
  • The specific supplies and equipment needed for your unique treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions

Dental bridges come in two main types: permanent and semi-permanent. Often called fixed partial dentures, bridges are bonded to existing teeth or implants. You can distinguish a bridge from a denture by the fact that bridges remain fixed in place, while dentures are removable and include the pink gum portion.

Cantilever bridges are utilized when there are no adjacent teeth on both sides of the missing teeth. While they were once common, they are not recommended in the back of the mouth anymore, as they can exert excessive force on other teeth, potentially causing damage. If your missing teeth are located in the back of your mouth, there are alternative solutions available to address the issue.

Typically, the process requires two appointments, each lasting less than an hour.

Bridges can be made from various materials such as gold alloys, non-precious alloys, porcelain, or a combination of these. At our practice, we primarily utilize porcelain for our dental bridge procedures.

While people may sometimes use the terms dental bridge and crown interchangeably, they serve different purposes. Dental crowns are prosthetic caps placed over damaged or worn teeth, reinforcing them and preventing decay. On the other hand, dental bridges are designed to fill the gap caused by one or more missing teeth, effectively bridging the space between adjacent teeth.

A crown, on its own, cannot replace a missing tooth. A crown is a dental cap resembling a tooth, but it requires support both inside and beneath the gum line. This support can come from either an existing and prepared tooth, a partial tooth with a post, or a dental implant

Bridges can be made of Zirconia. Ask us for more information and we would be happy to show you what materials are available and what our recommendations are for your specific needs.
