Trusted Colorado Springs Dentist Fills Gaps In
Teeth With Porcelain Fixed Bridges
Bear Creek Dental Center provides
durable, custom-shaped porcelain fixed
bridges made to resemble your natural
teeth.
The bridges are essentially
artificial teeth (pontics) created to
fill the gaps created by missing
teeth.
Rather than being inserted directly into the
jawbone like other teeth replacement options,
they are anchored to the surrounding teeth
(abutments) using crowns and dental cement.
During the first visit, the anchoring teeth are
prepared, impressions are taken, and a
temporary bridge is installed to fill the gap
until the permanent bridge is ready.
At the second visit, the temporary
bridge is removed and the
permanent bridge is checked,
adjusted, and cemented.
Porcelain fixed
bridges are a
permanent alternative
to removable partial
dentures.
They are also particularly beneficial if your facial
shape has changed, your other teeth have
shifted, or your ability to chew and speak has
been affected.
