Benefits of Replacing Your Teeth with Dental Bridges

Posted By: Dr. Rina M. Kotecha | Published On: Dec 1, 2022 | Dental Bridges

Dr. Rina Kotecha advises patients with tooth loss to find a solution as soon as possible. Whether you have lost one or several teeth, it affects your ability to chew properly and speak clearly. And that’s not all. Tooth loss causes the nearby teeth to shift into the edentulous space, messing up your tooth alignment.

If you have missing teeth, consider replacing what you have lost before your dental health takes a downward spiral. Patients with tooth loss can opt for dental bridges from Dentistry On 10 in Mississauga, Ontario, to complete their smile and restore oral functionality.

Benefits of dental bridges

Traditional dental bridges fill the gap left by the missing teeth. Traditional bridges comprise artificial teeth (pontics) anchored by the surviving teeth (abutments) on either side of the gap. Patients can also consider implant bridges. These bridges are deeply inserted in your jawbone and don’t affect the health and stability of the adjacent teeth.

Dental Bridges before and after — A fixed bridge is a solution for replacement of a few missing teeth. It is an alternative to implants and removable dentures.

Whatever the type of your dental bridge, these restorations offer numerous benefits like:

Improved chewing: Patients with missing teeth often skip out on delicacies that require intense chewing and biting. Dental bridges replace missing teeth and improve your biting force to help you enjoy your favourite foods
Easy maintenance: Most patients may avoid restorations that require cumbersome maintenance. Luckily, maintaining dental bridges isn’t any different from caring for your natural teeth. Like your natural teeth, dental care for bridges involves brushing and flossing daily, coupled with bi-annual dental appointments
Prevents shifting of teeth: When your teeth miss support from the neighbouring teeth, they shift out of place and become loose, affecting your alignment. Misaligned teeth encourage tooth decay and jaw pain. Dental bridges avert these dental health problems by filling up the toothless gap
Improved speaking: Tooth loss makes it difficult to pronounce certain words. The gap may also make you speak with a lisp. A dental bridge fixes your speech issues by filling the space left by the missing teeth

Hi, before I come to see Doctor Rina and her amazing staff, I was actually someone that had not gone to the dentist for a while because I was so stressed and very worried and anxious about it.
I had been recommended about her from other people and kept in the back of my mind. I finally made the call and from the first call the reception was absolutely amazing and made me feel at home. I let them know right away, I was really anxious. This is when I came in to see the doctor, Doctor Rena was amazing. She went through everything with me. I wouldn’t even smile when I walked in, she noticed I wouldn’t smile. I had had temporary caps on my front teeth for a really, really long time, so she took me through what her options were and it wasn’t good enough that it was just like here’s ABC. She wanted to make sure that we had gone too. A specialist to make sure mines a little bit more, more, issues. Having had root canal treatments on my front teeth and I went ahead, came back and again she sat down with me and gave me all of my options. What’s best for me? What can we do? What can we expect long term? Everyone here is so nice and warm they from the time I walked in for all my appointments they were all. How are you, Paula? How’s everything going? And you just feel like you’re part of a family and made me really feel at ease within a month and a half, She had me smiling like I am now. It was great, my friends, my family, my work people. They all notice exactly just how much more confident I am that I can smile. And honestly, it’s with her and because of the team here. And I found a place I can come back to and now really put my dental health as a priority. So, I definitely recommend her if there’s anything that you’ve left or you just need help on or you’re just looking for a place that you can come and feel comfortable. I definitely say, come to see Doctor Rina.
