Dental Bridge treatment

Dental Bridges

A bridge stabilizes the bite of a patient who is missing one or more teeth. Dr. Pratik Kotadia, an experienced Dentist In Bibwewadi, can help prevent the surrounding teeth from moving or shifting in the mouth with a well-designed dental bridge. A missing tooth that is not replaced may cause surrounding teeth to become unstable and require removal, compromising oral health or changing the shape of the face and diminishing the beauty of a smile.

Unlike partial dentures, bridges are permanent; patients need not remove them. The missing tooth is replaced with an artificial tooth (pontic) connected between two crowns (caps), which are permanently cemented or bonded on the adjacent natural teeth or dental implants.

Dental Bridge treatment in Bibwewadi is a reliable and long-lasting solution for patients looking to restore missing teeth with stability and aesthetics.

Bridges can be used to replace a small number of missing teeth if the neighboring teeth are sufficiently strong. The number of missing teeth, the condition of the neighboring teeth, and the health of the supporting gums and bone are all important factors which need to be assessed prior to making a bridge.

If you’re looking for the Best Dental Bridge Treatment in Bibwewadi, Kotadia’s Dental Care offers customized solutions to meet your oral health and cosmetic needs.

FAQ

A dental bridge is a fixed dental restoration used to replace one or more missing teeth by anchoring an artificial tooth (pontic) between two crowns placed on adjacent natural teeth or implants.

With proper oral hygiene and regular dental check-ups, a dental bridge can last anywhere from 10 to 15 years or even longer.

The procedure is usually not painful. Dr. Pratik Kotadia uses local anesthesia to ensure comfort during the treatment. Some mild discomfort may be experienced after the procedure, which typically resolves within a few days.

  • Have one or more missing teeth

  • Have healthy adjacent teeth or implants to support the bridge

  • Maintain good oral hygiene

A bridge is supported by adjacent teeth, while an implant is supported directly by the jawbone. Implants are ideal for single-tooth replacements without affecting nearby teeth, but bridges are often quicker and more affordable.
