DENTAL BRIDGES

Removing your teeth might be a shattering experience that may have a direct effect on someone’s self-esteem due to its effect on aesthetics, mastication, and speech.

There are a lot of ways to restore those missing teeth, one of the ways is a dental bridge. It is made up of two crowns or more that will be anchored by teeth or implants on both sides of the missing teeth, which are known as abutment teeth, and between those two crowns will be the false teeth known as pontic.

The dental bridge could be a short span that will replace one missing tooth or a long span that will replace more than one tooth.

What are the Benefits of dental bridges?
  • Restore the ability to eat and speak properly.
  • Maintain the height and shape of your face.
  • Prevent tilting of the adjacent teeth into the empty space.
  • Restore your self-esteem and smile.

Here at Dr. Rami Hamed Center, the best dental clinic in Dubai, we are doing different dental bridges that can be:

  • A traditional fixed bridge: this bridge is made when there is an anchor to the crowns on both sides of the empty space. These anchors can be natural teeth or implants.
  • Cantilever bridge: Done when there is an anchor to the crown on one side of the empty space. It can also be used to save tooth structure by preparing a single tooth rather than two, usually used in areas not exposed to a lot of force.
  • Resin-Bonded Bridges: also known as Maryland Bridge, this bridge involves less aggressive tooth preparation.

What is the procedure of making a Dental Bridge here at the dental department in Dr. Rami Hamed's center ?

To begin, prosthodontists will require information about how and when did you lose your teeth, and what you are expecting from the replacement of the tooth. In other words, your concerns are appearance, mastication, and function.

The second step is taking a primary impression to make a study cast or study model for both upper and lower teeth. In this case, an index will be made for the abutment teeth and a wax build-up will be done to the missing tooth or teeth. This index will allow our prosthodontist to provide you with a temporary bridge.

The third step is tooth preparation in which the abutment teeth will be prepared and a final impression along with a bite registration will be taken and will be sent to the lab which will fabricate the bridge and make sure that it has the right bite and occlusion.

When the permanent bridge arrives, the margins of the crowns on abutments will be checked to assure the proper fitting.  Then our prosthodontist will check the occlusion before cementing the bridge. After making sure that everything is right and perfect, our prosthodontist will cement the bridge and check the occlusion again to make sure that your new dental bridge won’t have any effect on your occlusion.
