Dental Bridges Dentist Wyoming MI

 

A dental bridge is an appliance that can replace missing teeth. It’s designed with an artificial tooth or teeth attached to a dental crown on either side. The crowns fit over your existing teeth while the artificial tooth fills in the gap. The end result looks natural and can last for more than a decade with proper care and maintenance.

Before you can receive your dental bridge, the adjacent teeth must be prepared. Our dental bridge dentists will remove some of your teeth’s enamel so that the crown will easily fit over the top. After that, we’ll create your custom bridge using our in-office technology. We will then permanently attach the bridge to your teeth, securing it in place.

Caring for Your Dental Bridge

It’s important to take good care of your dental bridge in order for it to last. While your bridge should hold up to normal wear and tear, you should avoid eating hard or sticky foods that could damage or tug at the appliance. You should also brush and floss regularly to keep tooth decay at bay.

Dental bridges are a great option for many patients with missing teeth. The Wyoming, MI dental bridge dentists at Ryan Frederickson DDS are happy to evaluate your teeth to see if dental bridges are right for you. To make an appointment, give our office a call at (616) 534-5602.
