When one or more of your teeth are missing, there are many options to restore your smile. One of the most common treatments that Winkler Dental Center offers is a dental bridge, which uses a false tooth and two crowns to repair the gap in your smile. With a dental bridge, Dr. April Winkler will fit the two teeth adjacent to the gap with crowns. After this, we will create a prosthetic for the space, which will consist of the replacement tooth between the two crowns. This may seem like a complicated procedure, but our dentist will make sure that you understand each part of the treatment. So if you are looking for a dental bridge in Munising, Michigan, you can trust Winkler Dental Center.
With a dental bridge, the two neighboring crowns act as anchors for the false tooth bridge, which is where the treatment gets its name. After your initial consultation and bridge preparation, Dr. Winkler will fit you with a temporary bridge that will protect your vulnerable teeth and gums while the permanent bridge is being created. Once your permanent bridge is ready, we will have you back to our office at Winkler Dental Center so Dr. Winkler can fit and adjust your new bridge to get the perfect fit.
