What Is a Bridge?

It’s no surprise that a dental bridge acts much like a regular bridge. It spans the gap where teeth are missing, suspending false teeth into the open space. A bridge is made up of a row of fake teeth. On the end are crowns that can be attached to the teeth on either side of the gap. The middle teeth will fill the open gap, restoring your full smile.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is a dental bridge different from a dental implant?
A bridge uses your adjacent natural teeth for support to replace missing teeth, while an implant is surgically placed into your jawbone. Bridges are faster and less invasive, while implants don’t require altering neighboring teeth. Dr. Mahajan will help you choose the best option based on your situation, budget, and timeline.

How long do dental bridges last?

With proper care, dental bridges typically last 10-15 years. Maintaining good oral hygiene and regular dental visits will help extend the life of your bridge.

Will a dental bridge feel natural?

Yes. After a short adjustment period (usually a few days), most patients report that their bridge feels completely natural. You’ll be able to eat, speak, and smile with confidence.
How do I clean a dental bridge?
Cleaning a bridge requires slightly more attention than natural teeth. You’ll brush normally and use a special floss threader or interdental brush to clean under the bridge. We’ll provide detailed instructions and demonstrate the technique during your appointment.

Can I eat normally with a dental bridge?

Yes. Once your bridge is in place and you’ve adjusted to it, you can eat most foods normally. We recommend avoiding very hard or sticky foods that could damage the bridge, just as you would with natural teeth.
