Embrace the following benefits of a dental bridge:
Comfort
Rediscover confidence, comfort, and joy with dental bridges – a long-lasting solution for missing teeth. Smile, eat, and speak with ease for over a decade with proper care.
Tooth health
Your teeth play a vital role in supporting each other and maintaining your facial structure. When teeth are missing, it can disrupt your bite and create gaps that allow other teeth to shift. A dental bridge prevents teeth from shifting, reducing the risk of decay, periodontal disease, jaw pain, and TMJ disorder caused by misaligned teeth.
Bone health
The synergy between healthy, stable teeth and strong jawbones is undeniable. When our dental health declines, the supporting bone and tissues suffer as well. By opting for a dental bridge, you can stabilize your dental health and effectively slow down the rate of bone loss caused by missing teeth.
The Cost Of Dental Bridges
The cost of a dental bridge can significantly vary depending on several factors. With a typical insurance plan, the average range for a dental bridge is approximately $800 to $1200+. If you don’t have insurance, a reasonable estimate for a bridge would be around $2000 to $3000 and above.
Several elements contribute to determining the cost of a dental bridge, including:
- The type of bridge and the material chosen for its construction.
- The number of missing teeth that require replacement.
- The location and complexity of the procedure.
- The condition of the adjacent teeth to the gap.
- Specific supplies and equipment required for your personalized treatment.
