A bridge comprises a false tooth called a pontic held in place by abutment teeth on either side of the gap. Abutment teeth are healthy, natural teeth fitted with dental crowns to support the bridge.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Depending on the number of consecutive teeth you are missing, your bridge could be three or more units, two crowns cemented to the teeth on either side of the space, plus one or more false teeth to fill the space. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dental bridges <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">can be made from various materials, like porcelain, ceramic, zirconium, and composites.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-size: 28px;\">Benefits of a Dental Bridge<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are several benefits of replacing your missing or severely decayed, or broken teeth with a <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.verywellhealth.com\/dental-bridge-4777662\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">tooth bridge<\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Helps restore a smile:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> One of the main <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">benefits of a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmd.com\/oral-health\/guide\/dental-health-bridges\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">dental bridge<\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is its ability to restore your smile.

Preparation involves reshaping the abutment teeth to allow room for a crown to be placed over them. You&#8217;ll be given a local anesthetic to ensure you&#8217;re comfortable throughout the procedure. Next, we&#8217;ll take a digital impression of your teeth and send them to the lab for bridge fabrication. We&#8217;ll place a temporary bridge to protect exposed teeth and gums.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Appointment for bridge placement<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Once your bridge is ready, you&#8217;ll come in for your second appointment to have them placed.

Maintain proper oral hygiene by brushing and flossing twice daily. You also need to schedule <a href=\"\/\">regular dental visits<\/a> for cleaning and oral exams, which will help keep track of your oral health.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-size: 28px;\">Tooth Bridge Cost<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">cost of a dental bridge<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> varies depending on several factors, such as how many teeth are being replaced, the complexity of the placement, and the materials used. Generally, you can expect to pay $2,000\u2013$5,000 for one pontic and a crown for each abutment tooth, but since most dental insurance providers cover bridges, you may not have to pay anything out of pocket.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-size: 28px;\">Schedule Your Appointment Today!<br \/>\n<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">dental bridges<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, a missing or damaged tooth doesn&#8217;t have to affect your smile or the overall condition of your mouth.
