What Is A Porcelain Bridge?

A porcelain bridge is a treatment option for replacing a missing tooth. DentArtistry takes great pride in producing bridges that look great, look natural, and are highly functional. We won’t accept anything less than the best in replacing a lost tooth or teeth.

 

If for any reason you have lost a tooth or teeth which has resulted in a gap between your remaining teeth, you are likely a candidate for a bridge. Your other options are dental implant replacements or removable partial dentures. When you schedule a consultation with DentArtistry we will review each of these options with you to find out which is the best treatment for you.

Advantages of Porcelain Bridges

• They look great!

• DentArtistry bridges look, feel & function like natural teeth!

• Porcelain bridges do not have the ugly gray line at the gum line that you see with metal bridges.

• Your porcelain bridge will last many years, as long as you’re taking care of your teeth properly.

 

Disadvantages of Porcelain Bridges

• The teeth on either side of the missing tooth or teeth must be prepared for a restoration

• All of the teeth in the dental bridge are connected, so flossing is more difficult

• If one tooth on the bridge has a problem, the whole bridge must be replaced

• Because porcelain bridges are involved multiple teeth they typically cost several times more than a basic one-tooth crown.
