What Happens During the Treatment?

During the bridge treatment, Dr. Poursh will begin by conducting a comprehensive examination of your oral health, including X-rays to assess the condition of the surrounding teeth and jawbone. If you're a candidate for a dental bridge in Burbank, Dr. Poursh will prepare the abutment teeth, which are the adjacent teeth used to anchor the bridge, by removing a small amount of enamel to make room for the bridge.

Next, Dr. Poursh will take impressions of your teeth, which will serve as a blueprint for creating your custom bridge. While the permanent bridge is being fabricated in a dental lab, you may receive a temporary bridge to protect the exposed teeth and maintain functionality. Once your permanent bridge is ready, Dr. Poursh will place and adjust it to ensure a comfortable fit and natural appearance, restoring your smile's beauty and function.
