Dental Bridges in Brisbane | Zen Dental Studio Bridgeman Downs

What is a dental bridge? A fixed dental bridge technique has been used with high success for many years to replace a missing tooth or teeth. Teeth on both sides of the space left by the missing tooth are prepared for a crown. Then a false tooth is joined to the crowns, and the entire bridge is cemented to the prepared teeth. What is the cost of a dental bridge? Generally the cost of a dental bridge is almost the same as a dental implant and is based on the number of teeth missing as well as on the type of material being used. What are the alternatives to a bridge? Dental implants, removable dentures, or in the case of teeth that need to be removed and replaced with a dental bridge, saving your natural teeth are all alternative treatment options.

How long can dental bridges last for? Dental bridges can last for many years if they are cared for and cleaned daily. Maintaining your bridge properly will help make it last for up to between five to 15 years. With today’s advancement in dentistry, dental bridges have become a secondary choice as a fixed replacement option. In situations where a dental implant cannot be placed to replace missing teeth, or if the patient does not want to undergo a surgery, dental bridges are a good alternative.
