A good oral care routine with regular visits to your dentist will help protect a dental bridge. This also keeps surrounding teeth healthy and protects against plaque and tooth decay.
Key takeaways:
– Brush your teeth twice a day preferably using a fluoride toothpaste.
– Carefully floss to prevent plaque buildup and lodged food leading to tooth decay.
– Avoid hard foods such as nut shells and hard candy – as well as chewy foods – to prevent potential damage.
Fortunately, a dental bridge that has been properly placed usually allows patients to eat and chew normally, without causing significant changes. However, particular attention should be paid to the dental care routine to look after the bridge and help it to last.
