Bridges
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. With advances in dental materials it is now possible to make bridges from all ceramic materials which has huge benefits with the aesthetics
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 interspace brush or special floss, as a normal toothbrush cannot reach.
Crowns
- as a protective cover for badly decayed teeth or fractured teeth;
- as a permanent restoration for teeth with large fillings;
- to correct minor problems in natural teeth like spacing and irregular shape or severe discolouration.
Crowns can be made from a variety of materials. They can be made from plastic, ceramic or metal alloys. A combination of metal and ceramic is also possible to maximise strength and simulate the appearance of natural teeth.
