Dental bridges in Prague

Tooth loss leads to changes in bite alignment and the stability of remaining teeth in the jawbone, which complicates the chewing process. This complex problem can be effectively solved by installing dental bridges in Prague at the Aesthetic Dentistry Center of Anton Slupický.

Here, every patient can replace missing teeth with high-quality prosthetic solutions.

The loss of several teeth can be restored with dental bridge installations. Professional prosthetic treatment in Prague includes the fabrication and placement of fixed dental bridges that are visually indistinguishable from natural teeth.

A fixed dental bridge consists of support inlays placed on adjacent teeth, connected by a strong framework, onto which artificial teeth are securely attached. The structure is called a “bridge” because its design resembles a real bridge spanning the gap between missing teeth. The entire construction is supported by neighboring teeth through special anchoring elements.

For a dental bridge to withstand chewing loads, the adjacent supporting teeth must be healthy and strong. That is why a thorough examination and, if necessary, preliminary treatment are always performed before bridge installation.

Which Type of Dental Bridge Should You Choose?

Protetické konstrukce z kovů (kovové zuby umístěné mezi celokovovými podpůrnými vložkami) nejsou příliš atraktivní na pohled, jsou obtížné k nošení kvůli své váze a hrozí poškozením sousedních opěrných zubů.

All-metal prosthetic bridges (metal artificial teeth placed between full-metal supporting inlays) are not very attractive visually. They are relatively heavy, may place stress on adjacent supporting teeth, and can feel uncomfortable to wear.

Nicméně většina lidí dává přednost tomuto řešení, pokud potřebují relativně pevnou, spolehlivou, ale relativně levnou variantu náhrady. Kovokeramické konstrukce v síle nezaostávají za kovovými mosty, ale vypadají mnohem estetičtěji, protože keramický obklad je laděn do barvy přirozených zubů pacienta.

During use, patients often notice a persistent metallic taste in the mouth. In addition, metal may cause allergic reactions in the oral cavity. These factors can create discomfort for the wearer.
However, many patients still choose metal bridges when they need a strong, reliable, and relatively affordable tooth replacement option.
