Dental Bridges Supplied  & Fitted In Windermere


Dental Bridges | Windermere | Zebra Dental
What are bridges made of?
Bridges are usually made of a precious metal. If the bridge will show, porcelain is then bonded to the base. Sometimes, there are other non-precious metals used in the base for strength.

Are bridges expensive?
Although a bridge may seem costly they can be a wise investment that will give many years of good service. It will also improve your appearance and bite. A bridge uses the considerable skill of the dentist and technician, and in this way, it’s similar to ordering a piece of hand-made jewellery.

How do I look after my bridge?
You need to clean your bridge every day, to prevent problems such as bad breath and gum disease. You also have to clean under the false tooth every day. Your dentist or hygienist will show you how to use a bridge needle or special floss, as a normal toothbrush cannot reach.

Adequate Information for Patients – Benefits and Risk of X-ray exposure

Your dentist needs to take an x-ray of your mouth to help with your care. There are many benefits associated with the use of x-rays, such as your dentist being able to see what their eyes cannot (such as inside your body to find hidden dental structures, malignant or benign masses, bone loss, and cavities). This is much safer than using invasive techniques such as surgery.
​
Dental x-rays are exceedingly safe, but like everything in life, there is a degree of risk involved – you will receive a negligible dose of radiation which carries a tiny (less than one in a 200,000) chance of side effects. Furthermore, your dentist will never take an x-ray unless the benefit to you exceeds the minimal risk. To put this into context, this dose of radiation is so small that it will be equivalent to what you receive in a few days from natural background radiation that is present in the surrounding environment.
