We know how easy it is to disrupt your dental balance. Life can throw challenges your way—accidental damage, decay, infection. Missing teeth can cast a shadow on your smile. Let Lilac Dental’s Saugus, MA, dentist illuminate your grin with dental bridges.
Tooth bridges are a dependable remedy for up to three missing teeth in a row. Crowns on your nearby teeth work as anchors, supporting a bridge containing artificial teeth called pontics.
We usually place a bridge in two visits. First, we prepare the anchor teeth for crowns and take impressions, placing a temporary bridge. Once your permanent bridge is ready and installed, it could last up to 15 years.
Also known as implant-supported bridges, this innovative option replaces an entire arch of teeth, combining the convenience of bridges with the durability of our Saugus dental implants.
While traditional bridges attach to existing teeth, these bridges secure onto strategically placed implants. Our dentist near Melrose, MA, customizes each full-arch bridge for a perfect fit. Enjoy your favorite foods and activities with confidence.
This is the path back to oral health after several dental setbacks, combining multiple restorative procedures—including bridges—for a renewed smile. Lilac Dental works closely with you to pick the right mix of treatments. Reclaim not only your smile but also the joy of living life fully.
Implants can last a lifetime but require placing a titanium post in the jaw, followed by the months-long osseointegration process. Bridges are less invasive and have faster results—great for those leery of oral surgery.
Ideal candidates usually have healthy gums and sufficient bone structure. However, we can help you get your oral health where it needs to be. For instance, if you have gum disease, we can tackle that first with our periodontics care.
It’s best to wait until the extraction site has healed before placing a bridge, which can take a few weeks to a few months. We’ll let you know when you’re ready for the next step toward your new smile.
This can depend on how many teeth you’re replacing. Check out our ways to pay, including our membership plan. We also review payment information when planning your treatment.
