Why do I need to replace missing teeth?
Retaining a gap where a tooth has been lost rather than replacing it can cause oral health problems down the road, including teeth alignment issues, gum disease, and jawbone shrinkage. In this day and age, there is no excuse for having less than a perfect smile. The San Antonio Dental Implant & Smile Center offers a variety of attractive promotions and payment options to make it even easier to smile the way you want to.
What is a dental bridge and how does it work?
A dental bridge is a fixed dental prosthesis used to replace a or many missing teeth; correcting your bit and giving you back your full smile. Each bridge uses and holds onto neighboring teeth to stabilize and hold the replacement prosthesis called a crown, in place. There are several types of fixed bridges available, including: conventional fixed bridges, resin-bonded bridges, cantilever bridges, and an implant supported bridge.
To find out more about our available bridges, or about a dental crown, please speak to one of our San Antonio TX dental bridge specialists.
Why should I replace my missing teeth with a bridge and crown?
When you are missing a tooth, your other teeth will begin to shift and move to fill the gap, slipping out of their proper position. This shifting can add extra and uneven pressure onto your jaw, potentially causing jaw problems and increasing your risk of periodontal (gum) disease, not to mention damaging your beautiful smile! If you are missing more than one tooth, the risk for these problems increases exponentially. Your best bet is to fill the gap and restore your smile. In some cases it may be better to consider dental implants or dental implants supported bridges for your restorative dentistry work.
