Dental Bridges in Sandy Springs

If you’re missing one or more teeth, and implants are not an option, Dental Bridges are an option to help restore your smile.

Dental Bridges

3 Unit Dental Bridge

Dental implants are the standard of care, but aren’t always an option.  So dental bridges step in and help maintain the shape of your face, as well as alleviating the stress in your bite by replacing missing teeth.

Sometimes called a fixed partial denture, a dental bridge replaces missing teeth with artificial teeth, looks great, and literally bridges the gap where one or more teeth may have been. The restoration can be made from gold, alloys, porcelain or a combination of these materials and is bonded onto the adjacent teeth for support.

The porcelain fixed bridge is historically very common when replacing a tooth or a couple of teeth that are no longer viable.  The porcelain is sculpted to replicate the look of natural tooth enamel and uses a durable material that creates a strong base to rely upon.

Unlike a removable bridge, which you can take out and clean, a fixed bridge can only be removed by a dentist.

Implant Dental Bridges

Dental Implant supported bridgeWhere three or more teeth are missing, a dental implant bridge attaches artificial teeth directly to the jaw or under the gum tissue. Depending on which type of bridge recommended, its success depends on its bone foundation. So it’s very important to keep your remaining teeth healthy and strong. (American Dental Association, 2006)
