Dental Bridges
You don’t realize how important balance is to your smile until it’s knocked off. Few things can knock your oral health off-kilter like tooth loss. Fortunately, you can restore harmony with a dental bridge. Pacific Woods Dental’s Hayhurst dentist offers personalized, thoughtful care to help restore what’s missing and keep the rest of your smile strong and steady for the road ahead.
A dental bridge is a simple, dependable way to replace missing teeth and bring your smile back to life. It’s made of one or more artificial teeth (called pontics) that are supported by neighboring natural teeth. Not only does it fill the gap in your smile, but it also helps keep your other teeth from shifting out of place.
Dentures are removable and can replace several teeth, or even all of them. They’re versatile but might feel less secure compared to bridges. Plus, dentures may need more upkeep and replacements, while bridges typically last longer and are easier to maintain day-to-day.
Compared to dental implants, bridges are often quicker and more budget-friendly, while implants require surgery and a longer healing time. Implants have the edge in permanence, anchored in the jaw for better bone health over time.
Typically, our dental bridges in Portland replace up to three teeth in a row.
With proper care, a dental bridge can last over a decade. Maintaining good oral hygiene and checking in at Pacific Woods Dental play a big part in extending its lifespan.
