Dental Bridges

What Materials Are Used In The Construction Of A Dental Bridge?

Metal-backed porcelain: Generally, metal-supported porcelains are used in cases where there are many tooth losses side by side.

Zirconium supported porcelain: This material, which is used in front teeth, is used in cases where one or two teeth are lost.

Solid zirconium: This extremely durable structure is generally used by people with grinding or clenching of the teeth.

Other materials: Integral metal and gold.

In cases where there is tooth loss or a space between the teeth, a dental bridge can be made by taking support from the teeth on the sides instead of the implant since ancient times. It is a short-term and permanent form of treatment for preserving the position of the remaining teeth and preserving the aesthetic smile. In this way, possible slips due to the gaps formed are prevented.

Procedure

If necessary before the procedure; Root canal treatment is completed, gingival problems are solved, tooth decay are cleaned, impacted teeth are pulled and fillings (obturation) are made.

Support teeth located next to the bridge are filed and made suitable for placing bridges.

Pastes are used to make measurements and the molds taken are sent to the laboratory.

The bridges prepared as a result of the measurements are tested and their compatibility with the mouth is checked. At the end of the treatment, bridges are placed on the tooth.
