Replacement of Missing Teeth

Bridge
A Dental bridge is a set of artificial teeth used to replace one or more missing teeth by joining an artificial tooth definitively to adjacent teeth.
The adjacent natural teeth act as pillars to support the artificial teeth.
A bridge can restore the smile and enhance your chewing efficiency. It helps in distributing the forces in your bite properly by replacing missing teeth and prevents the remaining teeth from drifting out of position.
Bridge is beneficial for the people wanting a fixed replacement for their missing teeth.
Getting a bridge usually involves two appointments. First one in which the natural adjacent teeth are prepared and the second one in which the bridge is placed in your mouth.
During the first appointment, the supporting teeth are evaluated for structural integrity to support artificial teeth that they will be supporting. These teeth need to be cut and prepared to make space for the bridge that they will hold and depending on the amount of cutting required, the teeth may need root canal treatments, which may need additional appointments.
