Dental Bridge by Gables Exceptional Dentistry

A dental bridge is a treatment option used to replace missing teeth and uses the surrounding teeth to support the appliance. The replacement resembles the missing tooth in both appearance and function, and Gables Exceptional Dentistry is experienced at providing patients with dental bridges that are both functional and comfortable. This treatment option allows the patient to have a natural looking, replacement tooth or teeth, which are permanently cemented, therefore avoiding a removable prosthesis.

It is important to replace a missing tooth or teeth in order to avoid a chain reaction of more complicated oral problems. Teeth adjacent and opposing a missing space can move and shift leading to bite and gum disease. These problems can further evolve into loss of more teeth and even TMJ disorders.

If you are considering dental bridges, here are some of the advantages to the treatment:
