When a temporary bridge falls out wny do the abutment teeth hurt so much?
The abutment teeth have been prepped (cut down and shaped) to receive the permanent bridge. They are sensitive because they are not supposed to be exposed to the environment as they are. Return to your dentist as soon as possible and have the temporary bridge re-cemented. This is important: The temporary bridge not only protects those preps, it also holds them in place until the permanent bridge is placed. If the teeth shift, even a little, because the temporary bridge is missing, the permanent bridge will not fit! New impressions will have to be taken and another bridge will have to be made.

If a fly is flying in a car and it crashes does the fly survive?
In a high speed crash(60+mph), like a bridge abutment, I say no. Every ounce of matter in the car will continue to move forward until stopped by an external force (bridge abutment). The kinetic energy in the fly by it's velocity will guarantee it's demise when it hits the now stationary windshield at 60+MPH.

What is the name of the longest suspension bridge?
The beautiful Golden Gate Bridge is the large suspension bridge located in San Francisco, spanning the gateway between the opening of the San Francisco Bay and the Pacific Ocean. The length of the bridge from abutment to abutment is 1.7 miles, the width is 97 feet and the bridge weighs around about 887 thousand tons including anchorages and approaches. The bridge is painted Orange Vermillion, also known as International Orange, and needs constant touch ups to make sure the salt content in the air does not erode it. When the Golden Gate Bridge was completed in 1937, it was the longest suspension bridge in the world. It is now the 2nd longest suspension bridge in the United States and the world's 9th longest suspension bridge.

How long does the dental implant process take, from start to finish?
From beginning to conclusion, the dental implant surgery may take many months, depending on a number of variables, including the particular demands of the patient and the intricacy of the procedure. Below is a broad outline of the many steps in the dental implant procedure and how much time each may require: First Consultation: The dentist will evaluate the patient's oral health and decide whether they are a good candidate for dental implants at this phase. This phase usually lasts an hour or so. Treatment Planning: The dentist will develop a treatment plan that details the intricacies of the implant placement procedure once the patient has been approved as a good candidate for dental implants. As the dentist needs to take X-rays and create impressions of the patient's teeth to guarantee a precise fit for the implant, this stage could require several consultations. This phase usually lasts one to two weeks. The real implant placement procedure is inserting the implant surgically into the patient's jawbone. This step usually lasts between one and two hours and can need for sedation or local anaesthesia. Osseointegration: The patient must give the implant enough time to fuse with the jawbone once it has been inserted. The osseointegration procedure can take several months to finish. Installation of the Abutment: After osseointegration is finished, the implant's abutment, a little connector piece that connects it to the replacement tooth or bridge, is put in place. Usually, this phase takes 1-2 hours. Installation of the Crown or Bridge: The last step in the dental implant procedure entails joining the bridge or replacement tooth to the abutment. To ensure an exact fit and correct alignment, this stage could require numerous consultations. Usually, this phase takes two to three weeks. While the entire dental implant procedure may take many months to complete, the ultimate result is a long-term tooth replacement option that feels and works much like real teeth.
