Dental Bridge Work (Requires 5-7 days)
Dental bridges are available from our expert dentist spas on Harley St, London, UK, and in Budapest, Hungary.
A bridge is a device used to fill the space where a tooth has fallen out or been removed. A typical bridge consists of a pontic (a filler tooth) that is attached to two surrounding crowns (abutments). Once complete, this bridge structure is bonded into the mouth. Without the use of a bridge, spaces in the mouth from missing teeth can cause multiple teeth to shift, lead to occlusion (biting) and/or jaw problems, and may spur periodontal disease. Bridges safeguard the integrity of existing teeth and help maintain a healthy, vibrant smile.
The Implant Process
Bridges usually require two trips to the dentist's office. During the initial visit, the surrounding teeth are numbed with a local anaesthetic. The dentist prepares the surrounding teeth by cleaning any plaque or decay that remains and reducing them so that the crowns can be fitted.
They then make a mould of the teeth and send it off to a dental lab where the customised impression is prepared. The customised mould might take one to three days to return to the office. In the interim, patients are fitted with a temporary bridge constructed of acrylic resin. When the patient returns to the dental office, the dentist removes the temporary bridge and replaces it with the permanent one. The dentist then adjusts the bridge for the proper bite and fit, and the bridge is permanently bonded into the mouth.
At Dentist Abroad you will find a professional approach to fitting dental bridges at our Harley Street (London, UK) spa or our surgery in Budapest, Hungary.
