Dental Bridges
If you are hiding your smile because of missing teeth, a dental bridge may be the answer for you. A Dental bridge literally bridges the gap created by one or more missing teeth. Visit our Bergen County office to discover how a dental bridge can bridge the gap between you and the smile you’ve always wanted.
When was the last time you felt so good you couldn’t help but smile?
If it’s been awhile, we can help. Dr. Sherzoy, DDS is the leading cosmetic dentist in Bogota NJ, located near New York City.
How Dental Bridges Work
There are several types of dental bridges to choose from:
- Cantilever bridges are used to replace a tooth that does not have supporting teeth on both sides of the affected area.
- Maryland bonded bridges include artificial teeth and gums, and are held in place by a metal frame.
- Traditional bridges are the most common, and literally bridge the gap of an empty tooth space by securing a false tooth using crowns on the teeth on either side.
The procedure requires three visits to our Bergen County dental office, and involves first preparing the teeth that will support the bridge. We do this by filing them somewhat to make room for the device, and then fitting them for crowns. Then, on the next visit, we bond the crowns to the supporting teeth, and molds are taken for the actual dental bridge. On your third and last visit, we will affix dental bridge to the supporting crowns. Then, you can go ahead and smile!
