Dental Bridges in Churubusco, IN

 

Achieve a Complete and Natural Smile

dentist near albion indiana bridgesMissing teeth can have a negative impact on your life, such as affecting your ability to speak or eat. If missing teeth have made you lose confidence in your smile, dental bridges may be the ideal solution to returning to life as usual.

At Turtle Town Dental, we understand the importance of a full and functional smile. Discover how a dental bridge procedure can restore your complete smile by scheduling an appointment with Dr. John Bixler and Dr. Margaret Neese!

 

What Are Dental Bridges?

Dental bridges, also known as fixed partial dentures, are a combination of two or more dental crowns on either side of a false tooth, also known as a pontic. This custom restoration bridges the gap created by a missing tooth or a group of missing teeth. The bridge is supported by natural teeth or implants and is a great method for patients missing one or more teeth.

Dr. Bixler or Dr. Neese will determine what type of dental bridge will be most effective for you based on your individual needs. This simple procedure can restore your smile in as little as two visits to our Churubusco office.

 

When Do You Need A Dental Bridge?

Dental bridges are a great option for patients with tooth damage that can’t be fixed with a filling or crown. Our doctors may recommend dental bridges for patients with:

  • One or more missing teeth
  • Damaged or cracked teeth
  • Significantly decayed teeth
  • Large fillings that need support

Having healthy teeth on either side of where the bridge will be placed is essential for this treatment. Contact our office at (260) 693-9300 to learn if you’re eligible for dental bridges.

 

Benefits of Dental Bridges

Dental bridges offer a variety of benefits for patients that other restorative solutions can’t match. Some of these benefits include:

  • Minimally invasive procedure
  • Short procedure time
  • Maintains facial shape
  • Restores your ability to eat and speak
  • Restores natural bite

Above all, dental bridges restore your smile and improve your oral health.

 

How Do Dental Bridges Work?

This quick and effective restorative procedure can take as little as two appointments at our Churubusco office.

Your first visit will include a full-mouth examination and cleaning to prepare your mouth for a dental bridge. We’ll then craft a mold of your teeth for your customized bridge and prepare the surrounding anchor teeth for permanent crowns. These will be necessary to reliably support the dental bridge.

At your second visit, typically two weeks after your first, we’ll ensure your custom bridge delivers a perfect fit and natural appearance. We’ll then securely fix them into place to reduce the possibility of shifting. Once your bridge is secured, you’re ready to leave our office with newfound confidence in your smile.

 

Frequently Asked Questions

 

 

How much do dental bridges cost?

The cost of treatment with dental bridges will depend on a number of factors, such as the number of crowns required for your restoration. Dr. Bixler and Dr. Neese will be sure to give you a cost estimate as part of your consultation. Your dental insurance may cover a portion of the cost—we suggest contacting your provider to determine your coverage.

How many teeth can be on a dental bridge?

Depending on the patient’s needs, a dental bridge can typically replace up to four teeth. Dental bridges will usually have one to two false teeth, though rare cases can require more than five. Our doctors will discuss how many teeth your bridge will replace at your consultation.

How long do dental bridges last?

Dental bridges can last between 10 to 15 years before needing to be replaced. Good dental hygiene practices like brushing and flossing twice a day will ensure your bridges remain strong for years to come. Biannual visits to our Churubusco office will also help maintain the condition of your bridges and your general oral health.
