Metal-Free Dental Bridges For Missing Teeth

biological dental care

As a holistic dentist in Newbury Park, metal is not something we condone for use in our mouths. We do not use metal for a variety of reasons:

  • Metals may cause allergic reactions.
  • Metals leave unattractive spots due to their darker colors.
  • Metals oxidize overtime, causing them to lose strength.

For these reasons, porcelain and other ceramics are a great alternative. One of the main benefits of porcelain is that its colors naturally blend with the colors of your teeth & mouth, meaning most will not be able to detect any difference in your dental bridge.

Benefits of Dental Bridges:

  • Restores function to the mouth, including speech & chewing.
  • Prevents adjacent teeth from drifting out of position.
  • Maintains the shape of your face.
  • Fills in the gaps for an attractive smile.
