An implant-supported bridge is a restorative procedure which reduces the need for any more dental implants then is necessary. They use the surrounding implants to help support the bridge.
Key takeaways:
– A dentist uses a bridge in restorative dental work when one or more teeth are missing.
– An implant-supported bridge does not need every missing tooth to be replaced with an implant.
– A dentist may need to avoid a gap in the teeth for a number of reasons, and this type of bridge allows them to do this.
“Implants last for life, so they’ll feel more permanent and comfortable than a removable denture. In addition, an implant supported bridge will look just like your natural teeth and allow you to chew and speak well.”
