What
are bridges made of?
Bridges are usually made of
a precious metal. If the bridge will show,
porcelain is then bonded to the base. Sometimes,
there are other non-precious metals used
in the base for strength.
Are bridges
expensive?
Although a bridge may seem costly they can be a wise investment that will give many years of good service. It will also improve your appearance and bite. A bridge uses the considerable skill of the dentist and technician, and in this way, it's similar to ordering a piece of hand-made jewellery.
How
do I look after my bridge?
You need
to clean your bridge every day, to prevent
problems such as bad breath and gum disease.
You also have to clean under the false tooth
every day. Your dentist or hygienist will
show you how to use a bridge needle or special
floss, as a normal toothbrush cannot reach.
