Fixed Dental Bridges

The process of installing fixed dental bridges at Dentistry At Dundas involves several essential steps:

1. Initial Consultation and Treatment Planning: When you first visit Dentistry At Dundas, our skilled professionals, Dr. Jass Grewal & Dr. Sanjeev Kumar, will assess your oral health during a comprehensive consultation. They will determine the appropriateness of fixed dental bridges for your unique requirements. Precise impressions and images of your teeth will be taken to craft a custom bridge that harmonizes with the natural color, shape, and size of your teeth.
2. Preparation of Teeth: To provide support for the dental bridge, the neighboring teeth, referred to as abutment teeth, will require preparation. Our dentists will gently remove a small portion of the enamel from these teeth, creating space for the dental crowns that will anchor the bridge securely in place. To ensure your comfort throughout this process, local anesthesia will be administered.
3. Impression Collection: Once the abutment teeth are primed, precise impressions will be taken and dispatched to our trusted dental laboratory. These impressions guide our skilled technicians in creating a bridge that offers an impeccable fit within your mouth.
4. Temporary Bridge Installation: While the final bridge is meticulously crafted, a temporary bridge will be fitted by our dentists to safeguard the exposed teeth and maintain your smile’s aesthetics and function.
5. Bridge Fitting and Refinement: When the permanent bridge is ready, your dentist will replace the temporary bridge and meticulously assess the fit and appearance of the new restoration. Any necessary adjustments will be carried out to ensure impeccable alignment and a comfortable bite.
6. Permanent Bridge Attachment: Once content with the fit and appearance, our dentists will utilize dental cement or adhesive to securely affix the bridge to the abutment teeth. This delicate process guarantees the precise positioning and stability of the bridge, effectively restoring your smile’s natural beauty and functionality.
