Dental Bridges in Brookline, MA

At Dr. Barzi Brookline Dental, we specialize in providing comprehensive solutions for replacing missing teeth, including the fabrication and placement of dental bridges in Brookline, MA. A dental bridge is a fixed restorative option designed to replace one or more missing teeth, effectively bridging the gap and restoring both the functionality and appearance of your smile. Our commitment to restoring your dental health includes utilizing high-quality materials and the latest techniques to create bridges that blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, ensuring a durable and aesthetically pleasing result.

Understanding Dental Bridges

Dental bridges consist of one or more artificial teeth, known as pontics, which are anchored in place by dental crowns attached to the adjacent teeth or implants. This solution not only restores the appearance of your smile but also prevents the remaining teeth from shifting, which could lead to bite problems and additional tooth loss.

The process of receiving a dental bridge at our practice involves:

• A detailed consultation and dental examination to assess your suitability for a bridge and discuss your treatment options.
• Preparation of the adjacent teeth or implants that will support the bridge, which may involve reshaping these teeth to ensure a proper fit for the crowns.
• Taking precise impressions of your teeth to create a custom bridge that matches the color, shape and size of your natural teeth.
• A temporary bridge may be placed while your custom bridge is being fabricated in a dental laboratory.
• Once your custom bridge is ready, it will be fitted, adjusted, and cemented into place during a follow-up visit, ensuring comfort and a perfect match to your natural bite.

Benefits of Dental Bridges Include:

• Restoration of your ability to chew and speak properly, improving your overall oral function.
• Enhancement of your smile’s appearance and your facial aesthetics by replacing missing teeth.
• Prevention of remaining teeth from drifting out of position, which could lead to further dental issues.
• Distribution of the forces in your bite properly by replacing missing teeth, helping to maintain the natural shape of your face.
