Porcelain bridges help restore one or more missing teeth by creating a bridge between the two teeth next to the missing tooth area. At that time, the doctor will have to sharpen the enamel of the adjacent tooth to take a crown to connect with the ceramic bridge. In addition, in case you have lost a lot of teeth, your doctor may implant the implant before taking a dental bridge up.

Types of porcelain bridges

Currently, there are 4 main types of porcelain bridges:

1. Traditional porcelain bridges

This is the most common type of bridge when the teeth on both sides of the missing tooth area are healthy and normal. The traditional porcelain bridge consists of two crowns taken on the pillars on the sides and in the middle connecting the dentures to replace missing teeth.

2. Bridge with a bridge also known as a pass (cantilever bridge)

This type of bridge only uses a crown that is attached to the abutment to support the false bridge. However, this type of bridge usually should not be done because the force of the strong bite will affect the cylindrical teeth. You can make this type of bridge for missing front teeth.

3. Adhesive Bridge

Similar to traditional bridges, adhesive bridge requires two natural teeth on either side of the missing tooth area. The difference is that the adhesive bridge uses a metal or porcelain frame to attach to the back of two adjacent teeth. This type of bridge is mainly used for front teeth and healthy teeth. You should not choose this type for deep and crossbite joints.

Choose Porcelain bridges or Implant?

Currently, dental implant is the best dental prosthesis method on the market. Compared to porcelain bridges, implant teeth have the following advantages:

  • The implant is solid as a real tooth, if taken care of well, the service life can last up to 20 years or even permanently.
  • Implant does not affect the adjacent teeth such as porcelain bridges, so you do not have to worry about dental health weakened by abrasion.
  • The phenomenon of gum recession, jaw bone resorption will still occur with the bridge method. In contrast, implant can overcome this problem.

However, the disadvantage of an implant is that it takes a long time for treatment, it can take up to 9 months if your dental condition is not strong enough. In addition, implant costs are also much higher than porcelain bridges.
