Dental bridges as a fixed prosthetic option
A dental bridge is a set of dental crowns joined together, it is indicated in cases of absence of one or more teeth where the aim is to rehabilitate these missing teeth in a fixed way.
Each dental bridge has abutments which can be the teeth adjacent to the missing tooth or when the absence of several teeth is continuous, dental implants can be placed as abutments if the condition of the bone is adequate.
Dental bridges are one of the most common types of fixed prosthetic rehabilitation treatments performed at Sonrisa Para Todos. Each fixed bridge is made up of at least three crown units and can be made of different materials such as porcelain metal or zirconium.
An important and indispensable step for the indication of this type of fixed prosthetic treatment is an assessment appointment, where the condition of the teeth to be used as abutments can be evaluated, the number of teeth to be restored, depending on the bite and the condition of the antagonist teeth where the fixed bridge will be placed, the material to be used to make the bridge is defined.
Selective wear of the teeth to be used as abutments is required to give them the shape of a die and the fixed bridge is cemented on them.
Fixed bridges are characterized for being a more economical fixed treatment compared to dental implants and can be done in a short period of time, taking between 3 to 5 appointments approximately. They are a highly esthetic treatment, which provides great comfort to the patient when speaking and chewing food properly.
