Dental bridges are fixed dental restorations that anchor a false tooth or teeth to two existing teeth. However, some people don’t have two healthy teeth to anchor a dental bridge effectively. In these cases, a dentist may recommend dental implants to replace missing teeth and act as anchors for a dental bridge.
While implant-supported dental bridges are similar to regular bridges, they are supported by dental implants rather than natural teeth. Dental implants are made of titanium screws that fuse with the jaw bone, resulting in a durable, permanent, and natural-looking restoration. The bridge is then attached to the dental implants to replace the missing teeth between each dental implant.
Who Is A Good Candidate For Implant-Supported Bridges?
An implant-supported bridge is ideal if you have three or more missing teeth in a row. Two dental implants can replace the missing teeth on either side of the gap, while the implant-supported dental bridge fills the gap with false teeth.
Implant-Supported Bridge Placement Process
Here’s what you can expect during the placement process for a dental implant-supported bridge:
Initial consultation: Your dentist will discuss your options and whether implant-supported bridges are a good choice for you.
Bone grafting (for some patients): If you don’t have enough healthy bone to support a dental implant, your oral surgeon will first perform a bone grafting procedure.
Dental implant placement: Next, the dental professional implants two small titanium rods into the jaw bone and gums, where they will support the dental bridge.
Dental implant fusion: After the implants are placed, it takes between three to six months for the titanium screws to effectively fuse with the jaw bone.
Dental bridge placement: After your mouth is healed, the oral surgeon will place the dental bridge by attaching the abutments to the dental implants.
Post-placement care and maintenance: Your dentist will give you tips on how to care for dental bridges and keep your smile looking and feeling its best.

What Are The Benefits Of An Implant-Supported Dental Bridge?
If you’re considering a dental implant bridge, here’s why many patients are choosing this type of dental restoration.
Prevents Bone Loss
One of the biggest advantages of an implant-supported bridge is its ability to support healthy bone. Without teeth to support it, the jaw bone loses density, which can cause serious dental issues. The implants preserve the bone’s integrity by replacing tooth roots and their function.
Longevity And Durability
Dental implants and the bridges they support are incredibly durable and can last a lifetime with the right care. While you can expect to have your dental restoration for at least 10 years, routine check-ups and regular maintenance will prolong its life.
Improve The Appearance Of Your Smile
Because an implant-supported bridge replaces at least three missing teeth, it can significantly improve the look of your smile. You can smile confidently, knowing there are no visible gaps in your teeth and changes to your face due to bone density loss.
Better Functionality
Another benefit of an implant dental bridge is improved dental function, including biting and chewing. Patients often notice that these bridges also help with speaking and communicating clearly.
Does Not Alter Natural Teeth
Some patients are hesitant about dental bridges because the supporting teeth need altering to accommodate the abutments and bridge. However, implant-supported bridges rest on the titanium implants, leaving the surrounding natural teeth unaltered.

It will be several months to a year from the time you meet your dentist and get the final placement of an implant-supported dental bridge. Much of this time involves the healing process to ensure the implants are successfully placed and will effectively support the bridge.
Keep in mind that this restorative treatment is a durable and permanent solution that can potentially last the rest of your life! After completing the placement process, you can look forward to improved dental health and a radiant smile for decades.
Because implant-supported bridges involve oral surgery and additional materials, they will cost more than a traditional bridge. The overall cost depends on the number of teeth being replaced, the materials used in the bridge, and whether other procedures are necessary.
Refer to your dental insurance policy to see if this type of treatment is covered. If not, Absolute Dental has limited-time offers, special discounts, and flexible financing options to help make restorative dental care affordable.
Your dentist may recommend an implant-supported dental bridge if you do not have healthy teeth that can support a traditional bridge. The number of missing teeth will also factor into what choice is best.
