Consulate Dental Plans, Fixed Dental Bridge
Another way to replace a tooth is by getting a Fixed bridge (Dental Bridges are also normally covered by most dental insurance plans) A fixed bridge does requires some preparing, which involves cutting down, the teeth on either side of the missing tooth. Tooth preparation of the adjacent teeth is irreversible and involves the removal of quite a bit of the tooth structure. Providing this type of dental service is technically demanding and will require all of your dentist’s skill. A well made fixed bridge will look natural, function well, and potentially last a lifetime. However, 75% of fixed bridges fail within 7 years. Make sure you go to a dentist that has experience in providing this type of dental service.
