At Bryn Mawr Dental Health Group, we understand the importance of a complete smile. Dr. John E. Richardson, Dr. Lynnette Mesina, and Dr. Noelle Ling are proud to offer expert dental bridge services to restore the function and aesthetics of your smile. Located in Bryn Mawr, PA, our clinic is equipped to provide high-quality dental bridges that seamlessly replace missing teeth.
What Are Dental Bridges?
Dental bridges are custom-made false teeth that are anchored on neighboring teeth to replace one or more missing teeth. Bridges are an effective solution that can restore your ability to chew and speak properly, maintain the shape of your face, and prevent remaining teeth from shifting out of position.
Types of Dental Bridges
We offer various types of bridges depending on your needs and the health of your adjacent teeth, including:
- Traditional Bridges: Made with porcelain fused to metal or ceramics, these are the most common type of bridges.
- Cantilever Bridges: Used when there are adjacent teeth on only one side of the missing tooth or teeth.
- Maryland Bonded Bridges: Made of porcelain, these bridges are fused to metal bands and bonded to the back of the teeth on either side of the gap.
The Process of Getting a Dental Bridge
- Initial Consultation: Dr. Richardson, Dr. Ling, or Dr. Mesina will assess your teeth and discuss the best bridge option for your situation.
- Preparation of Teeth: The adjacent teeth are prepared by reshaping them to ensure a proper fit for the bridge.
- Impression Making: Impressions of your teeth are taken, which serve as a model from which the bridge, pontic (false tooth), and crowns will be made by a dental lab.
- Temporary Bridge: A temporary bridge will be placed to protect the exposed teeth and gums while the permanent bridge is being made.
- Fitting Your Permanent Bridge: Once your permanent bridge is ready, it will be checked and adjusted to achieve a proper fit before it is cemented into place.
