Dental Bridges in
Huntington Beach & San Clemente, CA
Are you missing a tooth or several teeth? If so, there are many ways you can replace your missing teeth to boost your confidence and the functionality of your teeth. Talk to our dentists in Huntington Beach, CA and San Clemente, CA to learn more about the available tooth replacement options. At Seascape Cosmetic & Implant Dentistry, we offer several tooth replacement options.
What Are Bridges?
Bridges are sometimes called false or fake teeth. They bridge a gap between your teeth as a way to fill the gap. Bridges are custom-fit, so they will fit in your mouth comfortably. The bridge is held in place by the teeth on either side of it. Those existing teeth are known as abutment teeth.
A dental bridge can replace up to three teeth. Bridges require anchor teeth, so you must have surrounding teeth to support the bridge.
There are several types of bridges to choose from. If you talk to our dentists about your needs, we can help you find the right type for your situation. The types of bridges include:
- Maryland bonded bridges
- Cantilever bridges
- Traditional bridges
Bridges are made of porcelain, gold, and other materials. The goal is for bridges to look realistic, so our dentists will choose a material that matches your natural teeth.
Are Bridges Affordable?
Bridges are an affordable tooth replacement choice compared to other options. It’s important to talk to our dentists near you about financing. Also, you should check with your insurance provider to ensure you know what is covered. For most people, bridges are the most affordable option, but it varies.
Why Should You Get Bridges?
Bridges are a way you can replace your missing teeth. They can help to make your teeth fully functional, so you can eat, talk, and smile. You will feel more comfortable and confident with a more complete set of teeth.
Bridges also help by keeping your natural teeth in place. Without bridges or another similar device, your teeth may shift over time. This can then lead to alignment issues.
