Why Choose a Dental Implant Over a Bridge?

Rather than restore a smile with a dental implant procedure, some will opt for a bridge. While bridges can offer a more temporary solution to missing teeth, they can also bring some drawbacks.

Bridges require grinding down healthy teeth for support, which can end up altering their structure and feel. They also don’t prevent bone loss in your jaw, meaning your facial structure continues to change over time.

Your dental implants can stand independently without affecting any remaining natural teeth. Plus, they are a permanent solution, while bridges will often require replacing every 10-15 years.
