Implant Bridge
Leaps ahead of a Traditional Dental Bridge
Like all dental implant procedures, implant bridges are a tremendous improvement over traditional tooth replacement methods. Dr. Robert Harrell at Adult Dentistry of Ballantyne has extensive experience with all aspects of implant dentistry and highly recommends implant bridges to replace multiple teeth.
A traditional bridge, commonly referred to as a “crown and bridge,” is designed to replace missing teeth when neighboring teeth are still present. The process requires capping the teeth on either side of the gap and using them as attachment points to anchor the replacement teeth.
An implant bridge, on the other hand, offers numerous advantages over this method. For instance, there’s no need to crown otherwise healthy teeth. As the name suggests, implant bridges are anchored by implants set in the jaw bone. This makes for a restoration that’s far stronger and more durable.
Implant Bridge vs. Crown and Bridge
Dental Implant Bridges by Adult Dentistry of Ballantyne provide these important benefits:
- Implant bridges are a significant improvement over the old crown and bridge method of tooth replacement.
- With an implant bridge there is no need to grind and cap the adjacent teeth, which might otherwise be completely healthy.
- Implants are fused into the jaw bone so the bridges they support are extremely strong and durable.
- Because of their strength, implant bridges are ideal for replacing several missing teeth with a single appliance.
- Porcelain teeth in an implant bridge are as strong as natural teeth and look indistinguishable.

Implant dentistry has made it possible to replace missing teeth with a permanent, natural-looking, super strong bridge.
