According to the American Academy of Implant Dentistry, around a million Americans get one or more teeth replaced every year. Despite new teeth replacement options constantly being developed, many individuals continue to get traditional porcelain fixed bridges due to their affordability, reliability, and similarity to real teeth.

“Porcelain fixed bridges are an excellent way to replace missing teeth,” explained a spokesperson for Bear Creek Dental Center. “They are a simple and less-invasive tooth replacement option than dental implants which require extensive dental surgery. By updating our treatment, we’re aiming to make them more accessible to our patients.”

Porcelain fixed bridges are essentially artificial teeth (pontics) created to fill the gaps created by missing teeth. Rather than being inserted directly into the jawbone like other teeth replacement options, they are anchored to the surrounding teeth (abutments) using crowns and dental cement.

Getting a dental bridge typically requires several visits. During the first visit, the anchoring teeth are prepared for the crowns, impressions are taken so the permanent bridge can be fabricated, and a temporary bridge is installed to fill the gap until the permanent bridge is ready. At the second visit, the temporary bridge is removed and the permanent bridge is checked, adjusted, and cemented. Subsequent visits may be required just to ensure the fit is correct.

Dr. Jessie Mastin performs all porcelain fixed bridge treatments at Bear Creek Dental Center. Together with his team of dental assistants and hygienists, they have been providing patients with professional dental services since 2001, when he took over the practice from its previous owners.

“I recently got a porcelain fixed bridge from Dr. Mastin at Bear Creek Dental Center and I have to say I’m thrilled with how it went,” said a satisfied patient. “The treatment went off without a hitch and my new teeth look, feel, and function just like my natural teeth; I can’t tell the difference. I would highly recommend him to others wanting to restore their smiles.”
