Most Americans are missing at least one tooth by the time they reach 35. Teeth that are lost to dental trauma, tooth decay and periodontal disease can destabilize the function of the entire mouth and increase the risk of further tooth loss, bone loss in the jaw and other dental problems. If you are missing one or more teeth, our Agoura Hills dental bridges expert may recommend dental bridges.
A dental bridge is a restoration that closes the gap between teeth when one or a few of them are lost. The bridge is designed to rest on abutments, which can be either dental implants or your own natural teeth. Once your abutments are prepared, our expert in dental bridges in Agoura Hills will take impressions or images so that your bridge can be made to fit. The bridge, which may be made of porcelain or porcelain that is fused to metal, can be made to precise specifications for the best color, shape and size to fit your smile.
Once your bridge has been crafted, our Agoura Hills dental bridges expert can bond it securely to the abutments. Once in place, your teeth will be protected from the shifting and tilting that often occurs after the loss of a tooth. Your smile will once again be intact, and you can enjoy increased confidence with every smile. The functionality of your mouth will be restored, and the bridge will allow you to again bite, chew and speak without difficulty.
Maintaining your bridge properly can help extend its lifespan. Brush after meals and floss daily to remove plaque and debris that could increase your risk of gum disease or tooth decay. You may need to use a special floss threader tool that allows you to clean more effectively around the bridge. Regular visits with our expert in dental bridges in Agoura Hills are just as important and allow us to monitor your smile’s health.
