Dental work requires extensive precision especially when a patient requires an implant or bridge. A dental bridge works as a solid structure that can hold together an artificial tooth or a series of teeth in a row between two main crowned teeth. These reinforced teeth will hold in a bridge or permanent selection of teeth that can fill in gaps, assist with digestion and more.
The procedure is usually brief and primarily cosmetic. The process of getting started with building a bridge usually first involves fashioning crowns on the two anchor teeth for the bridge. Multiple bridges can be used in the place of false teeth or to change the structure of someone’s smile. There are many reasons why a bridge can be recommended by a dental professional, so it’s best to speak with our dentists at Timberlea Dental here in Fort McMurray to learn about your options.
