Dental Treatments

Dental bridges can last more than ten years with good oral hygiene and regular professional cleaning. Although bridges last a lifetime, they sometimes loosen or fall. The most important step you can take to ensure the longevity of your bridge is to practice good oral hygiene. A bridge can lose support if the teeth or bone holding it in place are damaged by dental diseases. Keep your gums and teeth healthy by brushing twice a day with fluoride toothpaste and flossing daily. Also, see your dentist and hygienist regularly for checkups and professional cleaning.
