Dental Bridge Procedure in Mesa, AZ

A dental bridge is a simple device used to bridge the gap between missing teeth. Several types of dental bridges are common in dentistry, so finding the best kind for you will require an experienced team of dentists and dental assistants. The four types of dental bridges are:

• Traditional. A bridge is made of two dental crowns surrounding a false tooth. The crowns cover the teeth next to the missing tooth and the false tooth fills the gap between.
• Cantilever. Slightly smaller than traditional bridges, cantilever dental bridges have one crown and one false tooth, yet look the same as traditional bridges.
• Maryland. For a less invasive dental bridge, Maryland Bonded Bridges have metal anchors that are affixed to the back of the teeth on either side of the gap.
• Implant-Supported. When your mouth has a larger gap, two posts can be inserted into the gums so that the crowns have something to be anchored to.
