Dental Bridges and Full Mouth Reconstruction

To highlight the benefits, consider the advantages that a dental bridge can bring to your full mouth reconstruction. Tooth loss can affect people of all ages, not just the elderly. This can happen through decay, or due to some sort of mouth injury that is beyond your control. No matter what the reason might be, a dental bridge has emerged as an option to replace your missing teeth. This is often seen as a primary way of getting your smile back. The bridge is designed to attach itself to artificial teeth that are placed right next to the natural teeth you still have remaining in your mouth. The bridge that your dentist uses can either be permanent (also referred to as a fixed bridge), or it can be removable. It depends on your situation and the severity of your tooth loss. Whatever your dentist decides will be the most minimally invasive option that restores your mouth to its original state to the fullest extent possible.

If you need a fixed bridge during your full mouth reconstruction, it will typically be applied via either the placement of a crown on the surrounding teeth, or by bonding artificial teeth to the region of the mouth. A removable bridge can actually be attached to the remaining teeth with a metal clasp, or by making use of various attachments that are precisely configured for your mouth.

Bridges, crowns, and veneers have become an important part of oral health and appearance. They will help enhance the look of your lips and cheeks, increasing your self-confidence and returning that smile back to your face. It is important to remember that tooth loss, over time, can cause your mouth to actually dip lower. This will result in a face that looks much older than your years, so opting for full mouth reconstruction will help alleviate this.
