Our dentists in Holland, IL, are highly experienced at dental bridges and can provide family-friendly care for all our patients.
Replacing Missing Gaps with Dental Bridges at Dental Care 4 U
Dental bridges are restorations that replace a section of missing teeth. These devices work by using your natural teeth on either side of the gap as the anchor point for support. The bridge, made up of multiple crowns fused together, attaches to the adjacent teeth and fills in the missing gaps. Through this method, the bridge enables you to replace multiple missing teeth without needing implants.
Dental bridges can also be used with crowns, as crowns can also be used as anchor points to support the bridge. Through this method, the bridge seamlessly blends in with the rest of your teeth in both function and appearance.
At Dental Care 4 U, we can custom-design your bridges to replace as many missing teeth as needed. We offer various types of bridges for our patients to provide the most options for their care. These bridges include:
- Traditional Bridge: As described before, the traditional bridge works by using two crowns and a row of fake teeth, creating a bridge. Because the crowns provide anchor points, the bridge is strong and reliable for replacing missing teeth.
- Cantilever Bridge: The cantilever bridge only works with a single anchor crown and is specifically used for the front of the mouth. For those with missing front teeth, they can save time and money.
- Maryland Bonded Bridge: The Maryland bonded bridge works with metal or porcelain frames instead of crowns as anchor points. These frames adhere to the back of your natural teeth and are a conservative option for bridges.
If you’re wondering which type of bridge would work best for you, then the best way to determine your choice is to make an appointment with our team today! During your consultation with Dr. Raj Khurana, he can help you select the best bridges for your missing teeth.
