Bridges
If a person has multiple damaged or missing teeth, they are a prime candidate for a dental bridge. These devices are used to restore a patient’s smile, confidence, and full functionality of the mouth. Dr. Bhoot is well versed in creating bridges for her patients.
A bridge is a fixed option that involves using the adjacent teeth as anchors (abutments) to replace the missing tooth (pontic). The life span of a bridge can be anywhere from 10-20 years depending on maintenance. There are different types of bridges but zirconia seems to be very popular these days. Gold, porcelain fused to metal, and high noble metal are also options. In the anterior region of the mouth the most esthetic quality bridge is placed where no trace of metal is visible. Patients are usually very pleased with well-made bridges because they are fixed!
A bridge is a terrific option for replacing missing teeth with a natural look. Dr. Bhoot and the team at Weinand Dental have the training and experience to create a bridge that looks as real as your original teeth.
