Procedure Overview:
A dazzling smile can be ruined by a missing tooth, making you feel unconfident and unwilling to smile, even when you want to. This is where dental bridges can help you by filling in that space and making you feel beautiful again.

A dental bridge is a replacement for missing teeth. Your dentist can offer a number of different bridge options, including a conventional bridge or a fixed bridge, consisting of a false tooth or teeth attached to crowns. The teeth on either side are prepared so that they become abutments (like those that are inserted for dental implants), easing the process of inserting and fusing the bridge to the teeth adjacent to the gap.
Another type of bridge is an adhesive bridge, although it does not offer the stability of a fixed bridge, as it consists simply of a false tooth bonded by wings to the adjacent teeth.
A cantilever bridge is similar to the fixed bridge, but with just one crown attached to the neighbouring teeth as opposed to two.
Tooth decay kills the internal pulp, meaning that it cannot cure itself as necessary. In such a case, the tooth begins to die, while the infection starts to spread to the whole tooth. If root canal therapy is not conducted, the infection will reach the root apex and begin to damage the tissue. The progression of the infection results in abscess, intense pain and swelling, requiring treatment with antibiotics to reduce the swelling. After the reduction in swelling, dental experts can apply root canal therapy if the tooth is not in a serious enough condition to warrant extraction.
The surgery starts with a consultation. During this appointment, x-rays will be taken and your medical history will be checked. If everything looks okay, then you move on to the next step.
Part two of the process involves damaged teeth being removed. Your jawbone is then drilled into, and the implants are placed. This is all done under an anaesthetic so that you feel as comfortable as possible. After the area has healed and the implant has fused to your bone, an abutment will be added. This is the section that connects the artificial tooth to the fixture.
Once the abutments are added, you’re ready to receive your new smile. A mould is taken of your existing teeth and an artificial set is created. You now have two options. You can choose between a removable set of teeth or fixed placed ones.
After the surgery, you might feel bruising. This discomfort will only be momentary whilst the positive effects will last a lifetime.
