Crowns And Bridges

A dental bridge is used to replace one or more lost teeth by anchoring an artificial tooth between two crowns. These crowns are mounted on the adjacent healthy teeth around the gap (or on dental implants), providing a secure and natural-looking solution.

Dental bridges can:

• Restore your chewing and speaking abilities

• Prevent the adjacent teeth from shifting out of alignment

• Help maintain the facial shape

• Distribute bite forces evenly

• Improve your overall oral health

At iDentistry, we offer both traditional and implant-supported dental bridges Near Glen Waverley that are designed to seamlessly blend with your natural teeth and complement your smile.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How long will my dental crowns and bridges last?

Good-quality crowns and bridges can last for well over ten years. Their duration depends on the type of material used, your oral habits, and regular dental visits.

2. Is the crown or bridge treatment painful?

Most of our patients feel little to no pain during the procedure. We use local anaesthesia to numb the area as we work on your teeth. During and after the treatment, a little sensitivity may be experienced but it lasts only briefly.

3. How is a crown different from a bridge?

Bridges fill in gaps by anchoring to neighbouring teeth, while crowns repair individual teeth that are weak or broken.

4. How do I care for my crown or bridge?

Practice good oral hygiene by brushing two times a day, flossing (particularly near the bridge), and seeing your dentist on a regular basis. Avoid chewing on hard items such as nuts or ice to avoid damaging the restoration.

5. Are crowns and bridges usually covered by health insurance?

Most private health insurance policies with dental extras give partial cover for crowns and bridges. It's best to check with your provider to know your policy coverage.
