At True Dentistry Plus in Miami, FL, we specialize in dental bridges, an effective restoration solution designed to replace missing teeth and restore the function and aesthetics of your smile. A dental bridge fills the gap created by one or more missing teeth, using artificial teeth held in place by crowns on adjacent teeth or by dental implants.
Dental bridges not only improve the appearance of your smile but also restore functionality, helping to:
Enhance Chewing and Speaking
Fill the gaps in your smile to distribute the forces in your bite properly and aid in speaking and chewing.
Prevent Misalignment
Keep remaining teeth from shifting, which could lead to further dental issues.
Boost Confidence
Improve the aesthetics of your smile, helping you feel more confident and comfortable.
While dental implants offer a fantastic solution for many, they require a candidate to have healthy jawbones for successful implantation. Our team at True Dentistry Plus will conduct a thorough evaluation to determine if dental implants are the best solution for you.
Depending on your specific needs, True Dentistry Plus offers two main types of bridges
Traditional Bridges
These bridges use crowns on adjacent teeth as anchors for the false teeth in between.
Implant-Supported Bridges
A more stable and durable option where implants are placed in the jawbone to support the bridge directly, promoting jawbone health and providing a permanent solution without relying on surrounding teeth.
Maintaining Your Bridge
With proper care, including regular brushing, flossing, and dental check-ups, your dental bridge can last between five to seven years or longer.
