Dental bridge is the process of making a fixed prosthesis by receiving support from neighboring dental tissues or implants in the cavity areas formed as a result of tooth losses caused by various reasons. These prostheses allow to eliminate the aesthetic and functional losses caused by missing teeth.

How is Dental Bridge Treatment Performed?
Dental bridge treatments can be completed in an average of one week. However, this process may vary depending on the number and condition of the teeth to be treated or the preferred treatment method. After performing general health checks of the teeth in the first examination session, the condition of the tooth-deficient area and its relationship with neighboring tissues are examined. As a result of these examinations, treatment alternatives that can be applied are determined and presented to the patient. If dental bridge application is preferred, first of all, the design features of the prosthesis are determined in accordance with the condition of the teeth and the patient’s expectation. In the treatment session, if teeth are to be used as the supporting tissue of the bridge prosthesis, various amounts of etching are performed depending on the planned prosthetic properties. In cases where the implants will be supported, the appropriate parts on the implant are selected and placed on the prosthesis to be made. With these applications, the necessary space is created to fix the bridge prosthesis to be prepared. Then, measurements are taken from the patient in order to adapt the arrangements to the design. In the process of preparing permanent dentures, the continuity of the aesthetic appearance and the functions of the teeth is ensured by the application of temporary dentures. In the next treatment session, the compatibility of permanent dentures with teeth or implant parts is checked, and when the ideal fit is achieved, the bridge prosthesis is permanently glued.
How Does the Post-Treatment Process Proceed?
After dental bridge treatment, patients can easily return to daily life routine. Minimal tooth sensitivity may be observed in the first few days after treatment, but the severity of this condition is usually low enough to not cause loss of comfort. In cases where the lack of teeth persists for a long time, it may take some time to get used to the position of the prosthesis in the area. But after the tissues re-adapt to their ideal position, this problem completely disappears. In order to ensure the maintenance of dental bridges, it is sufficient to remove dental plaque with an emphasis on oral hygiene. All areas where the bridge is in contact with intraoral tissues should be carefully cleaned with routine tooth brushing and proper dental floss applications, and the condition of the prosthesis should be monitored with routine dentist checks.
