When you’re thinking about how to approach your tooth loss, it’s something that will come with a lot of decision making on your part. Let’s say, for instance, that you would like a dental bridge for your smile completion. Did you know that there’s more than one way to support a bridge? To ensure you’ve got the basics down regarding this topic, we suggest you take yourself through a quiz.

Quiz Questions: True or False?

1. True or False: One option for dental bridge support is relying on your natural teeth. We will place the prosthetic by relying on anchor teeth (which sit on each side of the open space).
2. True or False: If traditional support is not an option for you or you are looking for something else, you may wish to choose implant support.
3. True or False: When you’re ready to talk about a bridge but you’re not entirely sure which type of support you want, you should schedule a visit to come in to see us.

Quiz Answers

1. True. Traditional dental bridges are placed by bonding the crowns resting on each side of the bridge to the teeth (called anchor or abutment teeth) on each side of the space in your smile.
2. True. This means that instead of asking your natural teeth to do the work for your bridge, you will rely on implant posts for support instead.
3. True. The best thing you can do when you think you’re ready to move forward with replacing your teeth is scheduling a visit with us. You can come in, explore your options for your bridge, and learn more about exactly which choice is best for your smile.
