Dental Bridges in Calabasas

What are dental bridges?

Dental bridges are one of our most popular solutions for replacing teeth lost to decay or damage. Each bridge consists of multiple artificial teeth to literally bridge gaps in your smile. The outside parts of the bridge rest on top of teeth that have been prepared, serving as anchors for the additional teeth of the bridge. This makes them excellent for patients who need to replace more than one tooth but do not have enough tooth loss to require dentures.

When do you need dental bridges?

The first step to getting dental bridges is to visit our office and have a personal consultation with our cosmetic dentistry specialist. We will conduct a full examination of your teeth to see if your situation would be suited to having dental bridges. Bridges are best for patients who are missing multiple teeth due to either progressive tooth decay or damage (e.g., injury, accidents), as they replace several teeth in a row. However, it is important to have remaining teeth that can serve as the anchors for the bridges.

If you have experienced tooth loss, then replacing your missing teeth is about more than just cosmetics. While having a full set of teeth can certainly boost confidence in your smile, prolonged tooth loss can begin impacting your oral health. Missing teeth can lead to permanent loss of jaw bone mass, along with new shifting of your teeth. The sooner you replace a missing tooth, the sooner you can restore your smile’s function and also protect its health.

Getting dental bridges : Overview of the process

Once you are matched with dental bridges, the first step is to prepare the anchor teeth. Even if these teeth are themselves damaged or decayed, they can still be used. Our dentist will clean away any decay and prepare the tooth surface for holding the bridges. We then take impressions of your teeth, which are sent to our fabricator lab, where a set of customized bridges will be made.

Once those are ready, patients will return for a final visit to place the bridges and check that they fit and look perfect. Getting dental bridges can take some getting used to, so it is normal for your mouth to feel different for a couple days to a few weeks. However, let us know of any pain or discomfort right away, as it could be a sign the bridge does not fit. This is rare, but it is worth addressing sooner rather than later.

How long do dental bridges last?

Dental bridges can serve as a long-term solution for tooth loss. However, they are not as durable as your natural teeth. Still, patients can expect to get anywhere from 5 to 15 years out of their dental bridges, depending on how well you care for them. Some patients see their bridges last even longer! Fortunately, taking care of your bridges is easy and boils down to two main factors: keeping them clean (like your normal teeth) and avoiding damaging foods. If your bridges eventually become damaged or worn, you can always replace them with a new set in the future.

Does insurance cover the procedure?

Most dental insurances will cover at least a portion of the costs of dental bridges. However, the amount of coverage can vary significantly, so it is vital to check with your insurance carrier before progressing with treatment. We also offer flexible payment options, working with payments to match them with a financing plan that matches their budget.
