Find Your Solution for Missing Teeth at The Hills Family Dentistry
Missing teeth are more than just a cosmetic issue; they can affect your oral health and overall well-being. At The Hills Family Dentistry in San Marcos, Dr. Martin and Dr. Thomas offer dental bridges as an effective solution to restore both your smile and confidence.
What Are Dental Bridges?
Dental bridges are used to fill the gap created by missing teeth, connecting the space with adjacent teeth. A typical bridge includes two crowns on either side of the gap with a false tooth, or pontic, in between. This not only enhances your smile but also ensures proper alignment and functionality of your teeth.
How Dental Bridges Are Placed
Getting a dental bridge usually requires two visits. In your first appointment, Dr. Martin or Dr. Thomas will reshape the teeth next to the gap and take digital impressions to ensure a precise fit for the bridge. A temporary bridge is installed to protect these adjustments while your custom bridge is crafted. During your second visit, your permanent bridge will be carefully adjusted and securely affixed to ensure comfort and a perfect fit.
