Welcome to Beyond Dental Care, where we’re all about bringing back your smile and making sure your teeth are healthy. Are you missing a tooth or a few? If you are, we’ve got something that might help you feel better about smiling, talking, and eating. It’s called a dental bridge, and it could be just what you need to fill in those gaps and make your smile complete again.
What Are Dental Bridges?
Dental bridges are prosthetic devices used to replace missing teeth. They consist of artificial teeth (pontics) held in place by the teeth adjacent to the gap. Not only do they restore the appearance of your smile, but they also help maintain the alignment of your remaining teeth and improve functionality in chewing and speaking.
Materials Used
Bridges can be crafted from a variety of materials, including porcelain, ceramic, and metal. Porcelain and ceramic bridges offer a natural look, matching your existing teeth, while metal bridges are prized for their strength and durability.
