Dental bridges are designed to restore a missing tooth or teeth, and to prevent the natural consequences of tooth loss, which can include shifting teeth, decay and gum disease. Our dentist in Westlake Village can help you decide if a dental bridge is right for you.
The benefits of dental bridges include:
• Aesthetics
Fixed bridges fill the space of the missing tooth. They are also used to protect and improve the appearance of the missing tooth and the teeth that are being crowned. This allows us to give you more attractive results.
• Permanence
The bridge is bonded to the teeth next to the gap, so you do not have to remove it for cleaning purposes. You can be confident of your nice smile no matter what. Additionally, bridges can last many years when you take care of them properly.
• Protection
The bridge keeps your teeth healthy and properly positioned, while the crowns can also help protect the supporting teeth. This is particularly true if they have any restorations such as fillings.
• Fast
Most bridges can be placed in just a few dental visits.
• Minimally invasive
Bridges require no surgical procedures the way that implants do and are a great alternative for patients who are not candidates for dental surgery.
