Dental Bridges and crown by Texas City Dental.

If you lose an adult tooth, some form of replacement can be important so you can continue to chew and speak normally. A bridge is one great option to achieve that. Dental bridges are used when a tooth has been extracted or lost due to damage or decay, and a dental implant is not the right option for you. A bridge is another fixed prosthetic device, and it’s usually made from the same materials as a crown. As the name suggests, a bridge uses anchors on each side of the gap to fill the space. A crown is placed over the teeth on each side, then a bridge is fitted in between the crowns, and will permanently look and feel just like a real tooth. The Texas City Dental in Texas City is conveniently located near t La Marque, Galveston, and Hitchcock area is conveniently located near to the HEB, and ROSS market complex provides the best dental crown near you. 

If you’ve lost several teeth in a row, you can also have a bridge with more than one false tooth. Just like crowns, bridges are made specifically for your mouth, so it will fit in with the other teeth in terms of size, shape, and color. Bridges and crowns are strong and durable, but not invincible. Bridges are designed to be a fixed solution, but how you care for them can have an impact on their longevity. Firstly, you’ll need to care for your natural teeth just as well as ever (if not more so), as these are still the basis for any dental bridge. Proper care for bridges is much like looking after your normal teeth. If your natural teeth encounter decay or other issues, it may affect and weaken your dental additions so maintain regular visits to your dentist so they can check everything is working as it should.

Bridges and crowns are required:

1. To improve appearance
2. To prevent stresses that cause damage to other teeth
3. To prevent the teeth near the gap from shifting
4. To maintain the natural bite
5. To improve chewing ability
