Dental bridges on implants- replenishment of multi-tooth missing teeth using dental implants. Extensive tooth loss is a serious health problem. It cause a large decrease in the ability of proper chewing, contribute to the collapse of the cheeks and changes in facial features. Multi-tooth deficiencies are also the cause of permanent and irreversible movement of surrounding and opposing teeth, causing widespread atrophy of jaw bones.
Possibilities to use dental bridges on implants?
Replenishment of several missing teeth conterminous to each other is a big challenge for the dentist. In the case of the majority of such multi-tooth defects, it is not possible to perform a classic restoration using a prosthetic bridge based on the patient’s own teeth. The reason is too wide span of such a bridge and often the lack of adequately stable pillars. A moveable prosthesis may be a certain solution, but such a supplement brings with it a lot of inconvenience and should be treated only as a temporary solution.
