Description of service
When I went to the dentist he examined my teeth and suggested that I had an option for filling the gap and replacing the lost tooth through the dental bridge procedure and he charged a fee of $ 50 for consultation. He provided me detailed information regarding the procedure for dental bridge and their benefits. He then gave me an appointment to remove a decaying tooth and then I visited my dentist on the appointed day and had it removed and then he asked me to visit after one week. He also asked me to pay an advance for the bridging procedure and I paid 220 dollars as advance.
After one week when I visited my dentist he had showed me the denture like teeth that was made to the size to fill the gap. It was a three unit bridge made of porcelain. The procedure was on and I got it fixed. Then he asked me to come after one week for consultation and the procedure was over.
The rest of the amount was paid in two installments of 400 dollars each. If it where to choose gold cap then it would have cost me more. I was also provided with a gum gel and a few medicines. In total I had to pay 1000 dollars.
Review of Service
The dental procedure that I have received from my dentist was perfect and I have had no problems until now. Before the bridge was done I have had difficulty chewing hard and crunchy food but now I feel that I can eat them without any difficulty. I am fully satisfied with the new permanent teeth set that I have got through the dental bridge procedure.
Even though the cost is a bit high the procedure is very beneficial and provides you the same benefit as of your original teeth. I have had many procedures like root canal and filling but this procedure I feel is a permanent solution for your decayed and lost teeth. The procedure is a bit complicated and can be risky or wasted off if not done properly and under expert dentist. You also need to have a strong base and strong supporting tooth for the bridge to last long.
Dental bridge is a permanent solution for lost tooth. There are temporary tooth that are very difficult to use as they may loosen while eating and won't stay fixed over your jaws. The dental bridge procedure is a bit expensive and you need to spend a lot of money. The rate increases with the number of tooth to be bridged.
Tips
The process of dental bridge is very complicated and is highly priced. You need to do the procedure through an experienced dentist. If the tooth supporting the permanent denture or the bridge is not strong then it is better that you don't go for the procedure. Since it is a permanent solution it would provide you lasting benefits. You need to take care of your bridge and keep it clean.
You may have difficulty in the beginning since they are a foreign substance and need to be adjusted but later on you would be accustomed to it and consider it to be a part of your tooth structure. You can go for the procedure at any time you wish or when you have the money to do it. There are basically two types of materials used for this procedure porcelain and gold. Going for gold material will cost you more hence you can go for porcelain which is a cheaper option.
Gap in between the teeth after removal may make the rest of the teeth loose and weak hence filling the gap with the dental bridge would avoid such problems. A toothless mouth would make your face look odd and your appearance would also be affected dental bridge would enhance your appearance.
