Bridging the Gaps with Porcelain Perfection

Expertly Designed Porcelain Bridges for a Flawless Smile.

Looking for durable porcelain fixed bridges in Concord? Our expert will restore your missing teeth with high-quality porcelain bridges that blend perfectly with your natural smile. We understand how missing teeth can take a toll on simple tasks like chewing or speaking. Let us help you restore both the function and beauty of your smile with precision and care.

What are Porcelain Fixed Bridges?

Porcelain fixed bridges are dental restorations used to replace one or more missing teeth. They consist of artificial teeth supported by dental crowns attached to the neighboring natural teeth or dental implants. Once placed, the porcelain bridge restores both the appearance and function of your smile. Above all, they prevent the shifting of adjacent teeth, which is a common problem in people who have experienced some kind of tooth loss.

Who Needs Porcelain Fixed Bridges?

We have provided porcelain fixed bridges in Concord for people who have:

Missing Teeth Due to Decay or Injury

Severe tooth decay or an accident can leave you with one or more missing teeth. In such cases, a porcelain fixed bridge is an efficient way of reclaiming your confidence. It not only fills the gap but also helps preserve the surrounding teeth, preventing shifting or misalignment of the jaw.

Gaps from Tooth Loss

When multiple adjoining teeth are lost, a porcelain fixed bridge can fill the gaps perfectly. However, leaving the gaps unaddressed can cause the other teeth to drift out of position. As a result, the patient's facial structure gets compromised.

Bite Issues

Imagine not being able to enjoy your favorite foods without wincing in pain. It sure does sound like a struggle! A porcelain fixed bridge helps realign your bite and restores the ability to chew effectively, improving your overall oral function.

Need for Aesthetic Improvement

Gaps in smiles can make one nervous about laughing out loud in public or posing for the camera. Porcelain fixed bridges offer a cosmetic solution by matching the color and appearance of your natural teeth. The smooth, tooth-colored material makes your dental work look seamless.

Improved Quality of Life

In some cases, missing teeth can even tamper with a person's ability to pronounce specific words. Dental bridges can improve the situation by filling the empty spaces in your mouth. You will notice a shift in your social interactions and the way you see yourself in the mirror every morning.

Better Physical Health

Your dental health is tied to your overall physical health. Top Concord Dental not only provides the best dental bridges in Concord but also aims to help you transform your lifestyle. Throughout our practice, we have helped our patients make changes to their physical health by making appropriate changes in their dental routines.

What to Expect While Getting Porcelain Fixed Bridges?

Here’s the Step-by-Step Process:

Evaluation and Preparation

The dentist will evaluate your dental condition and address any unique concerns that you may have. At this stage, they will guide you through the process and decide if dental bridges are the right fit for you. Here, they will also prepare your teeth for abutments that anchor the bridge. A local anaesthetic is used to numb the area so you feel no pain during this step.

Impressions and Temporary Bridge

After preparation, the dentist will take detailed impressions of your mouth. These impressions help customize a perfect porcelain fixed bridge that fits your unique dental structure. At this stage, you might only receive a temporary bridge to protect the prepared teeth while a permanent bridge is being constructed.

Constructing Permanent Bridge

Your dental impressions are sent to a lab where our highly skilled team starts constructing your permanent porcelain dental bridge. This step might take a week to a couple of days, depending on the complexity of your case. The lab technicians will customize the bridge to match the size, shape, and color of your natural teeth.

Placing a Porcelain Fixed Bridge

You will return to your dentist for the final fittings of your porcelain bridges. At this step, the dentist will remove the temporary placements and replace them with permanent ones. They will analyze the new dental bridges for alignment and functionality.

Binding the Permanent Bridge

Once the bridge matches the preferences, the dentist will use a strong dental adhesive to bond it permanently to the prepared teeth. After the procedure, you might be asked to return for a final follow-up appointment where the expert makes sure everything is going smoothly. Such dental checkups are essential to monitor the condition of the bridge and surrounding teeth.
