Missing Teeth
Losing a tooth, especially in a visible area, can be embarrassing. Our dentist in Akron at Dennis Dental Care provides different options for tooth replacement. A dental bridge is a great choice to improve your smile and boost your confidence.
Beyond just appearance, missing teeth can affect your ability to eat certain foods and may cause surrounding teeth to shift. Porcelain bridges can help address these issues by restoring your ability to eat comfortably, enhancing your smile, and maintaining the alignment of your remaining teeth.
A Better Bridge
A dental bridge is a great option for replacing missing teeth, offering a stable and natural-looking solution. The bridge consists of porcelain crowns on each end with a porcelain piece in the middle to match the missing teeth. The supporting natural teeth, or abutments, are prepared similarly to individual porcelain crowns. The bridge is then securely fitted onto these abutments. Unlike partial dentures, a bridge stays in place without needing to be removed. In some cases, dental implants can also support the bridge instead of natural teeth. We can help determine the best option for your specific needs.
The design of your bridge will depend on the number of missing teeth and the condition of the abutment teeth. At Dennis Dental Care, we ensure your bridge is crafted to the highest standards for a natural look and long-term durability. We will also provide guidance on how to care for your new bridge to maintain its integrity.
