We Provide Excellent Dental Bridges to Meet Your Needs at CarolinasDentist
Fixed & Removable Bridges
At CarolinasDentist, we can help you bridge the gap to restore your teeth to a more natural and vibrant-looking smile, making it easier to eat and speak naturally. CarolinasDentist offers fixed bridges as well as removable bridges. The first is anchored in place by crowns on either side. The second is attached to the surrounding teeth with a metal framework. Dental bridges are very durable and should last for years, but you may need to have them re-cemented due to normal wear.
A dental bridge is a secure prosthesis and the perfect permanent anchor to help replace missing teeth
There are several types of bridges, so it is important to talk with your dentist to discuss the best treatment options for your particular case. The traditional bridge remains the most popular type and is usually made of porcelain fused to metal. Porcelain fixed bridges are quite popular as they most resemble your natural teeth. This type of bridge consists of two crowns that go over two anchoring teeth (abutment teeth) and are attached to pontics (artificial teeth), filling the gap created by one or more missing teeth.
Dental bridges are strong and sturdy and should last you many years. They may need replacement or need to be re-cemented due to normal wear.
Reasons for a fixed bridge:
- Fill space of missing teeth
- Maintain facial shape
- Prevent remaining teeth from drifting out of position
- Restore chewing and speaking ability
- Restore your natural smile
- Upgrade from a removable partial denture to a permanent dental appliance
What’s involved with getting a fixed bridge?
Getting a bridge usually requires a couple of visits. While the teeth are numb, the two anchoring teeth are prepared by removing a portion of enamel to allow for a crown. Next, a highly accurate impression (mold) is made which will be sent to a dental laboratory where the bridge gets made. A temporary bridge will be made and worn for several weeks until your next appointment.
At the second visit, your permanent bridge will be carefully checked, adjusted, and cemented to achieve the correct fit. Your dentist may temporarily cement the bridge, allowing your teeth and tissue time to get used to the new bridge. If this is the case, the new bridge will be permanently cemented at a later time.
You will receive care instructions at the conclusion of your treatment. Proper brushing, flossing and regular dental visits will aid in the life of your new permanent bridge.

I explained to them that I need all four taken out but it depended on the out of cost price. I did not feel pressured to do anything I wasn’t comfortable doing, and they were very upfront about pricing. At the time of my surgery I had 3 nurses in the room with me, all extremely friendly and very wonderful, the surgeon was very knowledgeable and left me feeling very secure to have my wisdom teeth taken out.When I woke up, I was greeted with friendly faces and carefully taken to my ride, where they informed him of the things I need to be doing.All in all, it was a great experience. I have a small fear of dentist and they made me feel very welcomed and secure. I will be going back to have my last two removed. Read Less
