DENTAL BRIDGES

TYPES OF DENTAL BRIDGES
Kanning Dental offers several types of dental bridges to meet the needs of every patient. A dental bridge can be either fixed or removable.
REMOVABLE DENTAL BRIDGE
Our dentists will only use a removable bridge as a temporary restoration. We will use this short term solution if you have to wait on your permanent bridge to be made in a dental lab. It will help maintain tooth position and make sure you do not go without teeth for any length of time.
FIXED DENTAL BRIDGE
A fixed bridge is made up of two dental crowns that are located on each end. Then the replacement teeth are in the middle. This type of bridge requires the use of two adjacent teeth. The dental crowns are cemented to the adjacent teeth which will hold the bridge securely in place.
DENTAL IMPLANT SUPPORTED BRIDGE
This is similar to a fixed dental bridge however the bridge is secured to dental implants. Dental implants offer the best support for any dental appliance. This type of bridge can replace several consecutive missing teeth. A dental bridge can last for many years with proper care and routine dental visits to ensure the health of the remaining teeth and the integrity of the dental bridge. Our dental care team will provide daily care instructions to help you maintain your new appliance as well as healthy teeth between visits.
