Dental bridge: Uses, types, recovery, and more

What are Dental Bridges?

A dental bridge can fill the gap left by one or more missing teeth with one or more artificial (false) teeth. A bridge is typically cemented in place and is made of crowns on either side of the missing tooth or teeth that support the pontic (false tooth).

Why do I need Dental Bridge?

Your teeth are interconnected. If a tooth is lost, neighboring teeth may move into the empty space. Your opposite jaw’s teeth can also move up and down towards the space. This can result in:

  • Bite issues.
  • Chewing problems.
  • Pain from the additional strain on your teeth and jaw.
  • Self-consciousness about your appearance or your smile.
  • A dental bridge can make a person feel more confident about their smile. Smile confidently with Dentist Markham.

Dental Bridge Uses

A dental bridge can make a person feel more at ease with their smile. It may also allow them to chew normally.

When an individual loses one or more teeth, it can affect their bite as well as it can cause pain. These complications can be avoided by replacing those teeth.

A person may require a bridge if any of the following conditions exist:

  • A tooth is so decayed that it drops out or a dentist removes it
  • An accident or injury damages a tooth beyond repair
  • When decay or infection is so deep within a tooth that neither a filling nor a root canal is sufficient. 

Types of Dental Bridges 

  • Traditional Bridge 

A traditional bridge consists of two crowns — also known as abutments — that hold the false tooth or teeth in place. This is the most common bridge type, and it can be fixed or removable.

  • Cantilever Bridge 

This process only needs one crown for support. This is a less invasive procedure that may be suitable for people who do not want to damage healthy teeth. The single crown, on the other hand, can act as a lever, increasing the risk of tooth and jaw damage.

  • Maryland Bridge 

 Maryland bridges are less invasive and more conservative than traditional or cantilever bridges. Metal or porcelain frameworks attached to the backs of teeth on either side of the gap serve as anchors for the bridge

Recovery 

After a dentist grinds down the teeth, a person’s mouth may feel tender and sore. It may also feel sore after the bridge is installed. The gums may swell and bleed. Most people’s soreness subsides after a few days. However, the gums may require a few weeks to fully recover from the procedure.

A person can return to work or school as soon as they feel well enough, which is usually the next day.

People who choose to be sedated during the bridge placement procedure should not drive afterward. Anyone who has implants may experience discomfort after waking up from anesthesia. They, too, should not drive and may require assistance for a day or two following the procedure.

Advantages of Dental Bridges 

A dental bridge can:

  • Assist your bite.
  • Prevent remaining teeth from shifting out of position.
  • Restore your chewing and speaking abilities.
  • Restore your grin.

Do dental bridges have any risks?

If you properly maintain your bridge, it can last for many years without causing problems. If the surrounding teeth decay or the cement deteriorates, the bridge may fail. If the bridge becomes loose while the supporting teeth remain healthy and intact, your provider may be able to reattach it with new cement.
