Implant Bridge Nicosia, Cyprus

What is a bridge? A dental bridge is a fixed restoration that is necessary when there is at least one tooth missing.The group with the higher strength until recently was the second type of crowns, but after the application of Zirconium Oxide in the first group, the results are very promising as well. Undoubtedly, the all porcelain type of crown has the nicest appearance. Advantages The avoidance of filling the space of a missing tooth can lead to the unpleasant result of losing other healthy teeth. This is because the teeth on either side of the space have the tendency of closing the gap creating orthodontic problems to the patient. Additionally, the tooth that is opposite to the empty space gets longer. Bridges correct bite issues, improve speech and give a nice aesthetic result. Procedure On the first appointment:A mild anaesthetic will be given to the patient to numb the area; the teeth will be prepared and shaped precisely. The dentist will then make an impression, which will serve as the model from which the bridge will be made by the dental laboratory. Before the end of the first appointment a temporary bridge is placed on the prepared teeth for the protection of the patient’s gums and teeth. On the second appointment:The temporary bridge will be removed, then the custom made bridge will be tried and adjusted for any bite discrepancies. Also, the colour will be chosen during this appointment. Finally, the temporary bridge is re-placed. On the last appointment:The temporary bridge is removed and the new bridge is then cemented in place. Caring of the bridge The good caring of the bridge is very important for its long-life.In addition to tooth brushing one can use special interdental brushes
