Attractive, healthy teeth play an important role in our general health and well-being. You look and feel confident when smiling and laughing with friends and family, any time and anywhere. Strong teeth enable you to eat favo rite foods; so important when maintaining a healthy diet.
There are many reasons why people lose more than one tooth, such as illness, an accident or simply inheriting poor teeth. This can have a serious impact on your quality of life. And it determines how you approach your continued dental health in the future.
A ceramic bridge is used to replace any tooth that is missing or beyond repair. It is individual ly made to match the shade and contou r of your natural teeth, so pract ically no one can tell the difference. There are two methods to replace missing teeth, depending upon your ind ividual circumstances.
1. Bridge on natural teeth consists of high-strength dental ceramic. Built with natural-looking replacement teeth, it is anchored to the adjacent teet h. To secure the bridge, the adjacent teeth must be reduced in size. Certain conditions are required when this method is used. This method does not solve the problem of furt her bone loss.
2. Bridge on implants uses modern technology. A durable bridge with natural -looking replacement teeth is securely positioned on dental implants. Healt hy, adjacent teeth are left untouched. Dental implants are strong, biocompatible fixtures made of titanium, that act just like natural tooth roots.
