A dental bridge can replace one to four missing teeth; however, the most common practice is to replace one or two teeth at a time for optimal stability and longevity.
If you have several missing teeth, the dentist will talk to you about our various options, including:
- Dental Implants
- Implant-Supported Bridge
- Implant-Supported Dentures
- Dentures and Partials
- Bridgework
At CS Dentistry, we offer a wide range of tooth replacement options to meet your needs.
About Dental Bridge Tooth Replacement in Bastrop, TX
Your dentist will assess your tooth loss to determine whether a bridge is a suitable option for you. When assessing your case, we look at the supporting teeth on either side of your smile gap. They should be strong, healthy, and able to anchor the bridge.
The bridge is an artificial tooth (or teeth) situated between dental crowns. The crowns top the teeth on either side of your smile gap, allowing the bridgework to complete your smile.
After bridge placement, we will discuss with you the care and upkeep requirements. We recommend using a floss or water threader to clean beneath the bridge at the gumline, and a special cleaning brush to prevent debris from accumulating.
