Replacing a missing tooth with a dental bridge has several benefits. It restores a person's smile and confidence. A bridge prevents other teeth from shifting out of place which could lead to issues like misaligned bites or difficulty brushing. The bridge is designed to last 10 years or more with proper care, making the cost worthwhile compared to other replacement options. Dental bridges also help support and protect teeth on either side of the gap that may already need repair work.

3. While a tooth could potentially last a lifetime, events such
as injuries or extensive decay can cause you to lose one
prematurely.

4. Unfortunately, even a single missing tooth can damage
your self-confidence and lead to other problems with
your oral health.

5. For this reason, dentists typically recommend replacing
the missing tooth.

6. Dental bridges are one option that you might be offered
to replace a lost tooth.

7. While any type of tooth replacement comes with a cost,
you can be reassured that choosing to have a bridge
placed is well worth it when you receive these benefits.

9. Most of your teeth are visible
when you smile. While you
should never let a lost tooth
destroy your self-confidence, the
truth is that many people feel
uncomfortable with a gap in
their smile.

10. A dental bridge is always worth the cost if it causes you to
feel more confident speaking with and smiling at other
people.

11. In fact, your dentist can help
match the bridge to your other
teeth so that it is virtually
undetectable when you smile.

13. At first glance, a single missing tooth might seem like no
big deal, especially if it is one of the back ones.

14. However, each tooth in your mouth serves as a placeholder
that stops the other teeth from moving around.

15. Once a tooth is lost, you may
find that the other teeth begin
to shift around to fill in the
space.

16. This can cause aesthetic issues
such as crowding and crooked
teeth, but you should also be
aware that all of that shifting
can create oral health issues
such as a misaligned bite.

17. You may also find it harder to brush and floss if your teeth
begin to crowd together.

18. With a dental bridge, the rest of your teeth will stay
exactly where they should.

20. Dental problems are often
not confined to a single
tooth. If you lost a tooth
to decay or a fracture,
then it is possible that the
teeth on each side of it
are also damaged.

21. Dental bridges work by
attaching a crown to the
teeth on both sides of the
gap that help hold the
replacement tooth in the
proper position.

22. When the adjacent teeth
already need repair, the
preparations made for the
bridge can help restore
their functioning and
protect them from further
damage.

24. With many types of
procedures, it helps to break
the cost down according to
how long you expect the
treatment to last.

25. Dental bridges can vary in cost
among dentists, but they tend
to last longer than other types
of tooth replacement options
such as removable dentures.

26. This is because your dental
bridge is designed to last for
many years with proper care.

27. While everyone’s experience is
different, you can expect your
bridge to last ten years or more
if you practice good oral
hygiene and see your dentist
regularly.

28. Once you consider the
length of time that
bridges last, the cost
makes perfect sense.

29. Today, there are many different
tooth replacement options that
are available, and you should
always work with your dentist to
find the right one to fit your
needs.

30. While having a bridge placed
does come with an initial cost,
the benefits are worth it when
you can preserve your smile for
many years to come.
