It consists of two or more artificial teeth, called replacement teeth, which are connected with crowns at the ends. These crowns are <\/span><b>attached to the teeth on either side of the missing tooth <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">to serve as abutments for the bridge.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A dental bridge can be made from a variety of materials, including metal, ceramic, cubic zirconia, or a combination of these. Bridges help to <\/span><b>restore the function and aesthetics of missing teeth<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, promote proper facial posture, and prevent the remaining teeth from shifting into the vacant area. Fixed dental bridges are permanent dentures that can only be removed by a dentist.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dental bridges &#8211; price<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bridges can be made from a variety of materials, including metals, <\/span><b>ceramics, cubic zirconia, or combinations of these materials<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. The cost of different materials can vary; for example, cubic zirconia bridges are more expensive than metal-ceramic bridges. The price is also influenced by the number of teeth that need to be replaced and the <\/span><b>complexity of the case<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Costs may be higher if additional procedures are needed, such as root canal treatment, tooth extractions or bone preparation.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How to care for a dental bridge?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In many ways, caring for a dental bridge is similar to caring for natural teeth. Here are some key instructions:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Regular cleaning<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: It is important to clean the dental bridge regularly to prevent tartar buildup and the onset of dental disease. Soft toothbrushes and fluoride toothpaste should be used.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Cleaning between the teeth<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Using an interdental brush or dental floss, the spaces under and around the bridge should be cleaned. There are special tools, such as super floss or interdental brushes, which are designed to clean under dental bridges.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Regular visits to the dentist<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Even if you take care of your dental bridge at home, it&#8217;s important to visit the dentist at least twice a year for a professional check-up and cleaning.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>A well-balanced diet<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Foods that are too hard, sticky or acidic should be avoided as they can damage the bridge. A healthy, balanced diet is important for overall oral health.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Solution for a worn dental bridge<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: If a dental bridge is damaged or appears to be loose, it is important to see a dentist as soon as possible. Don&#8217;t try to solve the problem yourself as it can lead to more damage.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dental bridge or implant: How to choose?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The choice between a dental bridge or an <\/span><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/ylux.sk\/en\/implantology\/\">implant<\/a><\/strong><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is highly individual and depends on a number of factors including the patient&#8217;s health, aesthetic requirements, financial means, and preferences.
