Why Choose Beam Dental
Our dedicated team of dentists, implant specialists, hygienists, and care specialists in Fort Lee, NJ, works together to create a convenient dental experience.
If you are missing multiple teeth in a row, implant-supported bridges offer a powerful way to restore the function and appearance of your smile. Unlike a traditional bridge, which must be anchored to your remaining healthy teeth, this solution uses titanium posts placed directly into the jawbone to secure the replacement teeth. This design ensures that your surrounding natural teeth remain untouched, reducing the risk of future decay or strain in those areas.
At our Fort Lee office, we utilize advanced implant dentistry to provide a fit that is both firm and comfortable. Because the bridge is stabilized by implants rather than resting on the gums, you can enjoy improved confidence when eating and speaking. Our team is dedicated to providing restorative services that enhance your quality of life through durable, long-lasting dental solutions.
Frequently Asked Questions
How should I maintain my implant-supported bridge?
Maintenance is straightforward and involves practicing excellent oral hygiene, such as daily brushing and flossing. You should also attend regular follow-up appointments and avoid habits like chewing on extremely sticky or hard candies that could damage the porcelain.
How long can I expect the bridge to last?
The titanium implants themselves are designed to last a lifetime with proper care. The crowns or replacement teeth attached to those implants typically have a lifespan of up to 15 years before they may need to be repaired or replaced.
How many implants are required to support the bridge?
The number of implants depends on the location and number of teeth being replaced. While every case is unique, dentists frequently use two implants to support a three-tooth bridge unit, which can be a very cost-effective approach.
What exactly is an implant-supported bridge?
It is a fixed dental restoration that replaces several missing teeth by anchoring a bridge to dental implants instead of natural teeth. This provides a much more stable foundation than traditional bridges, which rely on suction or the support of adjacent teeth.
