The Serio Dental Bridge

The process typically involves reshaping the teeth on either side of the gap to accommodate the bridge. These reshaped teeth, known as abutments, will support the bridge. An impression of your teeth is then taken to fabricate the bridge. Once ready, the bridge is cemented onto the abutment teeth.

Typically, getting a dental bridge requires two visits. The first is for the preparation of the abutment teeth and the taking of impressions. The second visit, usually a few weeks later, is for the placement of the final bridge.

At Serio Dental, your comfort is paramount. Local anesthesia is used to numb the area being worked on, ensuring a pain-free experience. Mild soreness or sensitivity can be expected post-procedure but is generally manageable with over-the-counter pain relief.

While bridges are designed to be durable, proper care ensures their longevity. Maintain regular oral hygiene, including brushing, flossing (with special flossers designed for bridges), and regular dental check-ups. Avoiding hard and sticky foods can also help preserve your bridge.

With proper care, dental bridges can last between 10 to 15 years, and sometimes even longer. Regular dental visits and check-ups will ensure your bridge remains in optimal condition.
