Dental Bridges in North Platte, NE
What Are Dental Bridges?
If one or several of your teeth have fallen out, it is not just a cosmetic issue — missing teeth can cause other teeth to move out of position. This can lead to extra tension when you bite, increased pain when you chew, or even trouble speaking. A dental bridge improves the health and appearance of your smile by filling in gaps with a false tooth supported by either crowns, dental implants, or both. At Apex Dentistry in North Platte, NE, Dr. Charles J. Boettcher offers custom-made bridges with high-quality materials that will help to give you back your beautiful smile. If you have gaps in your smile, please schedule a consultation with Dr. Boettcher to learn more about your restoration options with a dental bridge.
How Are Dental Bridges Performed?
After your supporting teeth are filed down and prepared, Dr. Boettcher will take digital images and impressions of your teeth so your bridge can be created. A temporary bridge or restoration can be placed while your custom one is crafted. Once your dental bridge is ready, the needed areas of your mouth may be numbed with local anesthesia. Other sedation methods can be discussed if you have fears, anxieties, or a strong gag reflex to help keep you comfortable during the procedure. The custom bridge can be glued in place or connected to dental implants based on the support you and Dr. Boettcher chose during your consultation. Dr. Boettcher will adjust the position of the bridge so it is comfortable and stable.
