At your first visit to Istanbul Care, the tooth doctor checks your teeth and jaw to pick the best treatment. A dental bridge do work great for replacing missing teeth, provided the nearby teeth are healthy and the bone is solid. First, we take an impression of your mouth, and that lets us build a detailed model.
So we can look into your bite and plan the bridge with precision. The tooth on each side of the gap get gently reshaped, enough to fit the bridge attachments and feel comfortable. We take a second impression. And so a custom bridge gets fabricated to blend naturally with your smile.
While the final bridge is being made, a temporary bridge or crown protects the region. Once the permanent bridge is ready, Istanbul Care fit and adjusts it. They check out for comfort and proper function before fixing it in place. Bridges can be porcelain, alloy, or both, and the replacing tooth is matched to your natural tooth color.

A dental bridge is a fixed dental restoration used to replace one or more missing teeth by placing an artificial tooth (pontic) between supporting teeth or implants. It helps restore chewing ability, speech, and the natural appearance of the smile.
A dental bridge works by anchoring artificial teeth to neighboring teeth or dental implants, which act as supports called abutments. This structure fills the gap left by missing teeth and keeps nearby teeth from shifting out of position.
Patients who have one or more missing teeth but still have healthy teeth or implants on each side of the gap may be good candidates for a dental bridge. Dentists evaluate oral health, bone condition, and surrounding teeth before recommending this treatment.
A dental bridge is secured by attaching artificial teeth (called pontics) to neighboring teeth or dental implants that act as anchors. These supporting structures, known as abutments, hold the bridge firmly in place and restore normal chewing and appearance.
A dental bridge can replace one or several missing teeth in a row, depending on the strength of the supporting teeth or implants. Dentists design the bridge to fill the gap while maintaining proper bite alignment and preventing nearby teeth from shifting.
