Getting a bridge usually requires two visits. The two anchoring teeth are prepared to allow for a crown. Next, an impression is made which will be sent to a dental laboratory where the bridge will be fabricated. In addition, a temporary bridge will be made and worn until your next appointment.
At the second visit, your permanent bridge will be carefully checked, adjusted, and cemented to achieve a proper fit.
Proper brushing, flossing and regular dental visits will aid in the life of your new permanent bridge.
