Dental Bridges in Belleville, Ontario

If you are missing some teeth, closing the gaps with a dental bridge may be a good choice for you, and  Dr. Rekha Miranda and her team at Quinte Mall Dental can certainly help you get the dental bridges in Belleville, Ontario that you need.

Dental bridges, also known as pontics, are a false number of teeth that are held in place by your real teeth (abutment teeth) on both sides of the gap utilizing a framework made of metal or another material.  Made to look and feel like your natural teeth, dental bridges will make your smile whole again.

Four types of dental bridges

• Traditional
• Cantilever
• Maryland
• Implant-supported

Reasons to choose dental bridges

•  To restore your smile and ability to chew properly

•  Preventing your teeth on both sides of the gap from shifting out of place

•  Restoring or maintaining face shape and the way you speak

•  Covered by most insurance plans

What to expect when you receive a dental bridge

It’s normal to feel nervous about seeing the dentist for any reason. Knowing what to expect during any procedure can be key to calming those nerves. The most popular type of dental bridge is a traditional one in which the dentist cements dental crowns onto your abutment teeth on either side of the gap, which will hold the bridge in place. The dentist prepares by recontouring your abutment teeth to fit the crowns, so impressions of your teeth will be made. In the meantime, the dentist will make you a temporary bridge to fill the gap until the more permanent bridge can be put in place during your second visit.

Upon your second visit, the dentist will remove the temporary bridge and insert the new one, making adjustments along the way until the framework fits comfortably. Further adjustments will be necessary during multiple visits as necessary to achieve the best fit for you. Then you can walk out of the dentist’s office smiling with confidence.
