Dental Bridges Cooper City, FL

A missing tooth leaves your smile incomplete and can make you feel self-conscious. At Dentistry at Serenity Cover, we can make your smile whole with dental bridges.

Dental bridges blend perfectly with your natural teeth, offer a more affordable alternative to dental implants, and do not require surgery. No one will know you are wearing a replacement tooth because they are custom-made to look natural.

Common Causes of Tooth Loss

When you are missing a tooth (or teeth), it not only impacts your appearance but can also impact your ability to chew properly. Dental bridges can solve these issues.

Tooth loss typically occurs because of the following:

Those with Type II diabetes, heart disease, and smokers are more susceptible to losing one or more teeth. You are especially at risk when you do not practice regular brushing or see the dentist for routine teeth cleaning and examinations.

Patients who do not see the dentist regularly are more likely to have buildups of plaque and tartar, which can compromise healthy teeth. These buildups lead to gum disease and tooth decay.

Dental Bridges Replace Missing Teeth

Bridges can replace one or more missing teeth. They fill in the gap and make your smile complete. A bridge consists of two crowns and an artificial tooth. The two crowns anchor the artificial tooth, bridging the gap in your mouth.

A dental bridge may also feature implants if you lack more than one tooth. Dental labs make dental bridges from various materials, including gold, porcelain, alloys, or a combination of materials.

A bridge can last ten years or more with proper maintenance. If your bridge includes implants, the implants become a permanent part of your smile.

What Are the Benefits of a Dental Bridge?

Dental implants or a bridge may be appropriate if you have one or more missing teeth. At Dentistry at Serenity Cover, we offer these dental services in our Cooper City, FL office.

You can expect the following benefits.

We can place a dental bridge anywhere in your mouth. If you need corrective cosmetic dentistry in Florida, call us today. We serve patients in Cooper City, Davie, Southwest Ranches, Weston, Pembroke Pines, and surrounding areas.

What is the Dental Implant Procedure Like?

You can expect the dental bridge procedure to require two dentistry visits. First, we will prepare the teeth on either side of the missing tooth area. We then shape these teeth to prepare them for a permanent crown.

Two-Part Procedure for Replacing Missing Teeth

The first part of the procedure does not require surgery. After we shape the anchoring teeth, we make an impression of your mouth and send it to the dental lab to create your new bridge.

During the second visit, we will cement your new bridge in place permanently. The bridge covers the two surrounding teeth, making your smile look amazing.
