Patients who have lost one or several teeth in a row within their dental arch have several choices for tooth replacement such as dentures, dental implants, and dental bridges. While all three of these solutions are readily available at Kings Dental in Garland, TX, some patients want a solution that is affordable, beautiful, and restores function to the smile; this may mean choosing dental bridges to repair their smiles.
Dental bridges are ceramic restorations that are made using dental crowns fused to pontics (false teeth). They are created with the aesthetics of the smile in mind. The dentist will send off the impressions used to fabricate the bridges to the dental laboratory with specific size, shape, and color instructions to ensure the new bridge blends in seamlessly with the existing natural teeth.
Dr. Vidya Suri and the team of Kings Dental are often asked by patients about the cost of a dental bridge. However, there is no “one size fits all” solution and it can be difficult to give an accurate quote without first examining the patient and deciding what his or her needs are. This is why it is important that patients who are considering restorations for replacing missing teeth book a consultation appointment and examination with their dentist to discuss the possibilities. For some patients, dental bridges may not be the best choice, and dentures or dental implants may be considered. This can greatly affect the cost of the treatment. Additionally, patients with dental insurance plans may be able to enjoy partial or full coverage, which can greatly reduce or even eliminate the out-of-pocket costs associated with the dental repair.
