Frequently Asked Questions
- Is an implant better than a bridge?
- Can food get stuck under and around a dental bridge?
- What is the disadvantages of a dental bridge?
- What foods should I avoid with a dental bridge?
Unlike bridges, Implants do not put strain on adjacent teeth. Dental bridges are generally the more affordable option.
Depending on the space and gaps under and around your bridge it is common to have food get stuck in the area.
Dental bridges are supported by the adjacent teeth. If one of the adjacent teeth fall victim to decay or break you may also loose the entire bridge.
You should avoid sticky foods like caramel, taffy, and gum. These foods can loosen, break and/or pull off the bridge.
