Why do we have to replace Missing Teeth?

Porcelain Veneers Sydney

In a normal, healthy mouth, chewing function is well balanced since each upper tooth has proper contact and function with corresponding lower teeth.

Because of this natural proper balance, undue strain or irritation on the gum tissue and bone is non-existent.

Drifting or spreading of teeth does not occur and oral hygiene is easily maintained.

But, this natural proper balance is quickly destroyed when a tooth is lost.

What is a dental bridge?

A dental bridge is when two or more crowns are connected together to replace missing teeth.

They are placed over your natural teeth that are prepared to receive the bridge.

Unlike dentures they are permanent fixtures and don’t need to be removed every now and then.

They look and feel natural and are easy to use.

What happens when I have missing teeth?

This is what can happen:

  • The opposing molar may super-erupt
  • The unprotected edge is subject to trauma
  • The neighbouring teeth til and proper functional balance is destroyed
  • The drifting teeth create food impaction areas where decay can starts or where periodontal disease can start
  • Destruction of the bone will result as teeth drift and tip

The loss of teeth is associated with diminished self-confidence and of course chewing difficulties.

So, it is necessary to replace the missing teeth as early as possible with something that resembles your natural teeth to the maximum.

With recent developments in dentistry, a number of options are now available to the patients to choose from.

What are the alternative to dental bridges?

Missing teeth can be replaced with dental implants or dentures as well.

What is the cost of a dental bridge?

The cost depends on the number of crowns that are on the bridge and the quality of the crown used.

Each crown can range start from as little as $1,000
