Dental bridges are used to fill the gap between two teeth. If you have one or two missing teeth, dental bridges can help to deal with that issue. It will also provide you the benefit of good looking smile through false but natural looking teeth.

If you have missing teeth, then a dentist near you may speak to you about considering a dental bridge. Dental bridges near you work to enhance your appearance and restore your chewing and speaking capabilities.

done when one or more permanent teeth are lost or pulled. The resulting gap must be filled in to prevent the remaining teeth from shifting.

The purpose of a dental bridge is to temporarily fill in where a missing tooth is until dentures can be created. Dental bridges are a new technology and offer great benefits to dental health.

It depends on how big the bridge is and what it is made out of. A bridge with three teeth in it made out of non-precious metal can cost around $400. A six or seven unit zirconia bridge can cost as much as $2500.

What are opinions on which is better for a missing tooth an implant or a bridge?

An implant by far is the best way to go. A bridge involves the shaving down of good teeth to help abut the missing tooth. Bridges are o.k. but they are not as permanent as an implant. There is also alot of maintenance hygienically with the bridge as opposed to the implant. An implant is better, unless the adjacent teeth need crowns, a bridge can act as crowns for the adjacent teeth, while it replaces the missing tooth.

Do your Teeth hurt a week after bridge prep?

If you still have the temporary bridge in, it can be somewhat uncomfortable. However, it should be slight, not severe. If it is severe see the dentist. The temp may need to be adjusted. Once the permanent bridge is placed, you should have little to no pain soon after the bridge is placed.
