Tooth Bridges in Beverly Hills

s-detail

What Are Tooth Bridges?

Tooth bridges are an excellent solution for replacing missing teeth. They help restore both function and appearance by filling the gap left by one or more missing teeth. The bridge is supported by adjacent teeth or dental implants, providing a seamless look and improved oral health. At Clove Dental in Beverly Hills, we specialize in providing high-quality, custom-made bridges to help you smile confidently again.

Our experienced dental team is dedicated to ensuring you receive the best care possible with bridges that look natural, feel comfortable, and last for years to come.

Types of Tooth Bridges We Offer in Beverly Hills

 

  1. Traditional Bridges
     Traditional bridges are the most common type, using dental crowns on either side of the gap to support the false tooth (or teeth) in between. They are ideal for patients with strong, healthy natural teeth adjacent to the missing tooth.
  2. Cantilever Bridges
     For areas of the mouth where there is only one tooth next to the gap, cantilever bridges are a suitable option. These bridges are not as commonly used but can be ideal for front teeth where less pressure is applied during chewing.
  3. Implant-Supported Bridges
     Implant-supported bridges are a more permanent solution for multiple missing teeth. Rather than relying on adjacent natural teeth, this type of bridge is anchored to dental implants. Implant-supported bridges provide superior stability and longevity compared to other options.

Why Choose Tooth Bridges?

Replacing missing teeth with a bridge offers multiple benefits for both your oral health and quality of life. Some of the key advantages include:

  • Restored Function
     With a tooth bridge, you can regain the ability to chew and speak properly. Missing teeth can make these everyday tasks difficult, but a bridge restores normal function.
  • Preventing Shifting Teeth
     When there’s a gap from a missing tooth, neighboring teeth can start to shift, leading to bite problems and further dental complications. A tooth bridge keeps your remaining teeth in their proper position.
  • Improved Aesthetics
     A custom-designed bridge matches the color, shape, and size of your natural teeth, making your smile look full and natural again. Whether you’re missing teeth at the front or back, a tooth bridge can help you feel confident in your smile.
  • Enhanced Oral Health
     A bridge helps distribute the forces in your bite evenly, preventing undue stress on the remaining teeth. Implant-supported bridges, in particular, help stimulate the jawbone and prevent bone loss.

The Tooth Bridge Process in Beverly Hills

At Clove Dental Beverly Hills, we follow a comprehensive approach to ensure you receive the best results from your tooth bridge procedure:

  • Initial Consultation
     During your first visit, we’ll conduct a thorough examination, including X-rays, to assess your dental health and determine if a bridge is the right option for you. We’ll explain your treatment options and help you decide on the best type of bridge for your needs.
  • Preparation (For Traditional Bridges)
     For traditional bridges, the adjacent teeth must be prepared by removing a small portion of enamel to accommodate the crowns that will hold the bridge. We take impressions of your teeth to create a custom bridge that fits perfectly with your natural smile.
  • Placement of Dental Implants (For Implant-Supported Bridges)
     If you opt for an implant-supported bridge, dental implants will be placed in the jawbone to serve as anchors for the bridge. This procedure typically takes a few months for the implants to heal and integrate with the bone.
  • Bridge Placement
     Once your custom bridge is ready, it will be placed in your mouth and adjusted for comfort and fit. We’ll ensure that your bridge feels natural and functions properly, allowing you to chew and speak with ease.
  • Follow-Up Care
     We provide thorough aftercare instructions and schedule follow-up appointments to ensure your bridge remains in excellent condition.

How Long Do Tooth Bridges Last?

With proper care, tooth bridges can last anywhere from 5 to 15 years or more. Implant-supported bridges tend to last even longer, sometimes up to 25 years. Regular dental visits, good oral hygiene, and avoiding hard foods can help extend the life of your bridge.

Caring for Your Dental Bridge

Maintaining your tooth bridge is important for its longevity and your overall oral health. Here are some tips for caring for your dental bridge:

  • Daily Brushing and Flossing
     Brush your teeth twice a day and floss daily, including the area around and under the bridge, using floss threaders or special cleaning tools to keep it clean.
  • Routine Dental Checkups
     Visit Clove Dental regularly for professional cleanings and checkups. We’ll ensure your bridge remains in excellent condition and address any potential issues before they become serious.
  • Avoid Hard Foods
     Hard foods, like ice or popcorn kernels, can damage your bridge. Be mindful of your diet to protect your dental restoration.
