An implant-supported bridge is stronger and more natural-looking then a traditional dental bridge. Your dentist can advise if you are a suitable candidate for this procedure.
Key takeaways:
– At least one tooth needs to be missing on a row of teeth.
– Any oral health issues such as gum disease will need to be corrected prior to the procedure.
– A dentist will need to verify the jaw bone is strong enough to support an implant supported bridge.
Keeping your smile in optimal health with regular checkups is the best way to ensure you’ll be a candidate for implant supported bridges.
