Regain Your Smile with Assurance
When teeth are missing, it can hinder your ability to chew effectively and diminish your confidence in communication and expressions. Dental bridges present a dependable option that bridges the gaps in your smile while preserving the natural functionality of your teeth. Dr. Greg Herd specializes in crafting customized bridges that harmonize beautifully with your existing teeth, rejuvenating both the function and visual appeal of your smile.
Advantages of Choosing Dental Bridges for Tooth Replacement
Dental bridges offer prompt enhancements by securing replacement teeth to neighboring healthy teeth or dental implants. This treatment method prevents adjacent teeth from drifting into vacant areas, which can lead to alignment issues and discomfort in the jaw over time. Bridges enable you to chew and articulate clearly, all while preserving your facial contours. Unlike removable dentures, bridges remain fixed in place, allowing you to enjoy your preferred foods without concern.
- Stop neighboring teeth from changing position
- Reinstate normal chewing ability and speech
- Support facial aesthetics and jawline
The Bridge Installation Procedure
The process of crafting your personalized bridge typically involves two visits to our office in Rancho Santa Margarita. During the initial appointment, our dentist will prepare the adjacent teeth by removing a minor amount of enamel to make space for the bridge crowns. Precise impressions are taken to guarantee that your bridge fits perfectly and aligns with your natural bite. A temporary bridge safeguards your prepared teeth while the permanent solution is being created. At your follow-up appointment, the custom bridge is meticulously fitted and securely bonded in place.
