If you’re missing teeth, it’s important to get them replaced. It's bad enough that these gaps make chewing and speaking more difficult. Even worse, they can change the structure of your mouth and lead to further decay.
Bridges fill the gap. Learn more about this restorative service to get a better idea of whether you’re a good candidate for it.
Who’s a Good Candidate for Dental Bridges?
Dental bridges are one of the most popular ways to replace missing teeth. That said, we may recommend a dental implant instead, especially if you’re just missing one tooth.
Bridges are more effective if we need to replace multiple teeth. They’re also more likely to be covered by your insurance.
Every patient has unique needs, so if you’re missing one or more teeth, come to our office for an examination.
What Dental Bridge Materials Do We Use?
Bridges can be made from different materials. Smalltown Dental works with:
- Gold Alloys
- Porcelain Fused to Metal
- Ceramic
The choice of material depends on requirements for strength, wear, and/or esthetics. As with all our services, the goal is to find the treatment that best suits your needs.
