Top 4 Reasons You Need a Tooth Bridge

Tooth BridgeA missing tooth can really affect your life and cause a bunch of dental problems. Have one less thing to worry about by getting a tooth replacement and one of the options available is a tooth bridge.

A dental bridge is a set of false teeth that “bridge” together a gap caused by missing teeth. It uses 1 or 2 healthy tooth abutments to keep the tooth replacement fixed in the mouth.

There are many reasons why you should choose a tooth bridge to fill in the gaps of your missing tooth. Read to know more about them!

1. Helps with teeth alignment

When you have a missing tooth, the tendency of the other teeth is to shift towards the gap. This can cause unsightly tooth gaps and crowding.

To prevent this from happening, you must immediately get your tooth replaced as soon as it is extracted and one of the quickest ways you can do that is with a dental bridge Macquarie Park.

2. Completes your smile

But what if you have a gap caused by a missing tooth that is visible when you smile? It can dent your self-esteem and prevent you from talking and laughing. Avoid this awkward situation by having a complete set of teeth with dental bridge!

3. Prevents tooth decay

Once the consequences of missing tooth have set in such as tooth gaps and crowding, you may find that food debris will easily lodge in between these spaces. Also, these areas are harder to clean with just regular brushing and flossing.

When this problem is left untreated, then plaque and bacteria will build up to cause tooth decay. You can avoid this altogether by getting your dental bridge as soon as the situation calls for it!

The longer you wait to replace the gap, the more dental problems and extensive dental work you will have to deal with. 

4. Takes less time and costs less than other options

And lastly, if you are looking for other tooth replacement options at a Ryde dental clinic near me, then dental bridge is definitely the quickest and most affordable route to take. It takes around 1 to 3 appointments to finish and you can enjoy a brand new smile after!

Another option which is dental implant will take months to finish and will cost you many $$$.

Avoid these problems and enjoy a brand new smile and a better quality of life with dental bridge at Macquarie Park. To determine if a tooth bridge is for you, contact us today at North Ryde Dentistry for a consultation.
