What is a Dental Bridge?

A traditional dental bridge in Lancaster offers an aesthetically pleasing way to replace one or more missing teeth. This type of prosthesis consists of two crowns, which the dentist places over the teeth that are adjacent to the gap (abutment teeth). An artificial tooth (or teeth) is suspended between the crowns. Bridges tend to be quite sturdy and provide a bite force that is strong enough to stand up to everyday eating.

Many patients are candidates for an implant-supported bridge, in which the crowns are placed over dental implants rather than over existing natural teeth. Implant bridges are even stronger than their traditional counterparts and don’t usually require the modification of any of a patient’s natural teeth.

Is a Dental Bridge Right for Me?

You may be a candidate for a dental bridge if:

  • One of your teeth is so weak that it requires extraction and replacement.
  • You have one or more missing teeth in a row.
  • The abutment teeth are strong enough to support a new bridge or you have adequate jawbone to support dental implants.
