Know What Kind Of Treatment Is Included In Dental Bridging
by Seller Ben BuisnessDental Bridges are used to replace missing
teeth and restore function. It is important to replace missing teeth as after a
while the teeth either side of the gap or gaps will start to move, possibly causing
problems in the future.
Dental Bridges and Dental Crowns are a type
of Cosmetic Dentistry and would be prepared and fitted by a Cosmetic Dentist.
Dental Bridges, just like Dental Crowns,
can be made from porcelain, gold or a combination of both metal and porcelain.
Dental Bridges and dental Crowns are laboratory made so therefore takes 2
appointments to complete. The actual stages are as follows:
Preparation appointment: Teeth either side
of the gap are filed down by a Cosmetic Dentist, to make way for the bridge to
fit over (rather like a dental crown would fit). An impression would be taken
and sent to the laboratory. A temporary bridge would be placed. It takes two
weeks for the Dental Bridge to be made. On occasions, it may be necessary for
you to visit the Ceramist Technician making your Bridge to ensure the correct
shade is chosen.
Fitting appointment: The temporary bridge
is removed and the permanent bridge cemented in place. The bite is checked
before you leave the practice.
Porcelain
Bonded Crown are incredibly strong and durable and looked after
correctly can last about 15-20 years.
It is still possible for patients without
teeth to have Dental Bridges. Implants can be placed to replicate the roots of
the teeth and then a Bridge placed onto these. This helps edentulous patients
as it doesn't mean they must have an implant for every tooth that is missing.
Few implants can be placed and Dental Bridges cemented onto these. This can
also save you money as it's cheaper per unit of a bridge than how much per
Implant would cost.
Zirconium Porcelain Crowns are not
always the best treatment option as it does involve filing down the teeth
either side of the gap. If these teeth are healthy and have had no treatment,
then really, they would be best left alone. Dental Implants are another way if
filling these gaps. Teeth either side would be untouched. Treatment time is
longer though taking about 6 months to complete. If the gap is in a visible
place and likely to cause embarrassment, then a temporary denture can be made
to hide the gap until treatment is completed.
Dental Crowns are replacements that most of
the dentists use to help protect the weaker teeth and prevent them further from
breaking and disrupting the mouth. Know about the various types available and
