Keep reading to learn more about cosmetic dentistry in Jupiter and whether dental bridges are a good option for you!  

 

What Are Dental Bridges?  

Dental bridges are created to fill in the gap made by one or more missing teeth. The false tooth (pontic) is cemented in place, supported by crowns or your teeth on either side, like a bridge. There are a variety of different types of dental bridges available, such as:  

 

- Traditional fixed bridge 

- Cantilever bridge 

- Maryland dental bridge 

- Implant supported bridge 

 

Dr. Casel will go over each type with you, discovering one that can suit your needs best.  

 

Who Needs a Dental Bridge?  

Dental bridges are good options for people who are missing a tooth or multiple teeth. In order to be a good candidate for a dental bridge, you need to have healthy teeth on either side of the missing teeth. Because your teeth work together, over time you may experience pain, difficulty chewing, bite problems, or your remaining teeth shifting into the empty space.
