The implant stops the bone loss that occurs when a tooth is lost, and the bridge prevents the surrounding teeth from shifting into the space. Unlike a traditional bridge, there is no need to reduce the size of neighboring teeth. A bridge retained by implants looks and feels like your natural teeth when you chew and talk.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"1080\" height=\"608\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/7EzHG_e2BtQ?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Although each case will be different, placing an implant-supported bridge generally involves two phases. The first phase is the surgical placement of the implants. The second phase is restoring the implants with the bridge.<\/p>\n<p>Placing the implants For the surgical placement of the implants, your mouth is thoroughly numbed. Small openings are made in your gums, and a channel is shaped in the bone to receive each implant.<\/p>\n<p>Next we place the bodies of the implants into the prepared channels. Sometimes covers are placed on the implants, and the gums are stitched closed. This method is called a two-stage procedure. In other cases that allow a single- stage procedure, extensions are attached to the implants at the time of the surgery.\u00a0 Full integration may take several months as the implants become fused securely to the bone. During this time, we may place a temporary replacement bridge.<\/p>\n<p>Then we schedule a series of appointments to create your final bridge. Though some of the steps might be different in your case, they usually include removing a temporary bridge and taking impressions of your mouth.<\/p>\n<p>The lab uses the impressions to make an accurate model of your mouth, including the implants. They use the model to create a bridge that fits the implants and your bite.<\/p>\n<p>Depending on the circumstances, we may have you try in the bridge framework, or we have you try in the final bridge. When everything is right, we secure your beautiful new bridge to the implants.<\/p>\n<p>With proper home care and regular checkups, your implants can be a long-term solution for a natural-looking smile.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When several neighboring teeth are missing, an implant-supported bridge is an excellent treatment for replacing them.
