Where patients in the Summerville, SC area can obtain affordable dental bridges
Dental bridges are a cosmetic and restorative solution for patients in the Summerville, SC area who have experienced tooth loss. Bridges are used in many situations but commonly replace one or more teeth in a row within the dental arch. This restoration is made of ceramic that mimics the appearance of the existing teeth for seamless integration into the smile.
Dr. Andrew Greenberg and the professionals of Mouth Carolina Dentistry, PA can help patients find out if dental bridges are the most affordable option for them. First, patients are urged to make an appointment with Dr. Andrew Greenberg to assess their situation. Patients can have a thorough evaluation done, including x-rays and a physical exam, and can consult with their dentist regarding the solutions available to them. There are three primary ways to replace missing teeth, which include dentures, dental bridges, and dental implants. However, there is no “one size fits all” solution so it is essential that patients work closely with a dental professional they trust to help them through the restoration journey.
Dental bridges are often considered for patients who want to replace teeth in a more permanent manner than dentures but without the expense of dental implants. Additionally, many dental insurance companies will provide partial or full coverage of dental bridges when needed. Dental implants are rarely covered by dental insurance and require patients to put out a lot of money upfront for their placement. Affordable options such as dental bridges often stand out when patients are tight on money or are trying to find solutions that are covered by their current insurance provider.
Dr. Andrew Greenberg will then walk patients through the process of receiving their new restoration. Patients will have preparations made to the adjacent teeth which support the dental bridge. Impressions are made, and these molds are mailed to an outside laboratory that creates the restoration with specific instructions via the dentist. Within a week or two, the restoration will be sent back to Mouth Carolina Dentistry, PA and patients will return to the practice for the placement of their new dental bridge. From start to finish, the process typically takes two to three weeks total.
