DENTAL BRIDGE

What exactly is a dental bridge?

A bridge appliance is most often made from porcelain, gold, or a combination of materials. Bridges are sometimes referred to as fixed partial dentures, because they are semi-permanent and are bonded to existing teeth or implants. Dr. Polan uses only the most advanced materials, and does not use any metal in his office. Your bridge will look exactly like your natural teeth!

There are several types of fixed dental bridges, including conventional fixed bridges, cantilever bridges and resin-bonded bridges. Unlike a removable bridge, which you can take out and clean, only your Beverly, MA dentist can remove a fixed bridge. Appliances called implant bridges are also available, and are attached to the bone below your gum tissue, creating a permanent solution.
