Dental Bridges Treatment on S Wayside Dr, Houston, 77023

Are you hesitant to smile freely due to missing teeth? Do gaps in your smile make you self-conscious? At Unity Dental Care, we understand the impact missing teeth can have on your confidence and overall oral health.That is why we are here to offer a solution that can restore your smile and your confidence: dental bridges.

What Is A Dental Bridge?

A dental bridge is like a bridge that fills in the space left by a missing tooth or teeth. It uses fake teeth called “pontics” to replace the ones that are missing. These pontics can be supported by either the natural teeth on either side of the gap or by dental implants, which are like tiny posts placed into your jawbone. Getting a dental bridge can offer many benefits for your smile and oral health. With proper care and regular visits to our dentists at Unity Dental Care, your bridge can last a lifetime. So if you are missing teeth and want to restore your smile, consider a dental bridge as a long-term solution.

What Are The Procedures Involved In Placing A Dental Bridge?

Preparation
First, our dentist will make sure you don not feel any pain by numbing the area where the bridge will go. Then, they will shape the nearby teeth so that they can hold the bridge securely in place.
Impression
Our dentist will use advanced technology to create a digital impression of the area where the bridge will be placed. Then, they will design your bridge using high-quality materials like porcelain. If you are getting a traditional bridge, it might take around 3 weeks to make your bridge. During this time, we will put a temporary bridge in place until your permanent one is ready.
Fitting The Bridge
Our dentist will make sure the dental bridge fits well and feels comfortable. They will also explain how to take care of your bridge properly. Once both you and the dentist are happy with how it looks and feels, the bridge will be fixed securely in your mouth.

Restored Oral Health

Restored Oral Health

A traditional bridge helps to stop your other teeth from moving around. But if you get a bridge supported by dental implants, it also prevents your jawbone from shrinking, which can happen when you have missing teeth.

What Are The Benefits Of Dental Implant-Supported Bridges?

The Unity Dental Care team offers restoration options for any number of missing teeth, utilizing dental crowns, bridges, or dentures supported by dental implants. An implant-supported dental bridge offers added benefits over traditional restorations, such as:

Unmatched Stability

Dental implants securely anchored in your jawbone provide strong stability for supporting a bridge, ensuring worry-free eating, talking, and smiling with a securely fixed restoration.

Bone Preservation

When a tooth is lost, the jawbone can weaken because it is no longer stimulated. Dental implants act like artificial tooth roots and are the only treatment known to prevent jawbone atrophy

A Lifetime Of Benefits

With proper care and regular dentist visits, dental implants can stay put for 40 years or even longer. While all dental fixes need replacing eventually, implants are a reliable choice for a lifetime of good oral health.

To qualify for dental implants, you need healthy gums and strong jawbones. If you are interested, our dentists at Unity Dental Care can check if you are a good fit during your next visit.
