What Are Fixed Implant Bridges?

Fixed implant bridges are dental restorations designed to effectively replace one or more missing teeth. At Courthouse Art of Dentistry, Dr. Joseph Khalil and Dr. Patrick Haddad utilize advanced techniques to create custom solutions that look and function like your natural teeth.

A fixed implant bridge includes a series of dental crowns that dentists anchor to your dental implants in your jawbone. This design provides excellent stability and support. It is a popular option for patients with many missing teeth. You can enjoy improved chewing ability, speech clarity, and smiling confidence.

Getting fixed implant dental bridges at Courthouse Art of Dentistry begins with a thorough FREE consultation with Dr. Joseph Khalil or Dr. Patrick Haddad. During this consultation, we will assess your oral health, discuss your needs, and determine whether you are a suitable candidate for fixed implant bridges.

These bridges are dental implants that consist of multiple dental crowns linked together and attached to your implants. Once everything is in place, we secure your new fixed implant tooth bridge and make any adjustments to ensure comfort and function.

What Are the Benefits of Fixed Implant Bridges?

Fixed implant dental bridges offer numerous advantages for those dealing with tooth loss. One of the primary benefits of fixed bridges is their improved functionality, which allows you to enjoy a wider variety of foods.

Unlike removable partial dentures, fixed tooth bridges stay securely in place, enhancing your chewing ability. At Courthouse Art of Dentistry, Dr. Joseph Khalil and Dr. Patrick Haddad emphasize the importance of aesthetics. Fixed implant bridges blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, helping you get a beautiful, charismatic smile.

Additionally, these tooth bridges promote better oral health by preventing the shifting of your surrounding teeth and minimizing bone loss.

With proper care, permanent bridges can last many years, making them a long-term solution for replacing your missing teeth. Choosing this type of bridge dental implant can significantly improve your quality of life and confidence.

What Are the Disadvantages of Fixed Implant Bridges?

While fixed implant bridges have many benefits, they also have some disadvantages. One drawback is the initial cost. However, we offer you a FREE consultation. Still, the procedure can be expensive and involve multiple components, including dental implants and the custom temporary bridge.

Moreover, proper oral hygiene practices are crucial. Neglecting your dental care can lead to much larger complications. If your jawbone is not strong enough, you might need bone grafting before getting fixed implant tooth bridges. However, other types of dental bridges, like traditional bridges, will not last as long and most likely have larger drawbacks.

At Courthouse Art of Dentistry, Dr. Joseph Khalil and Dr. Patrick Haddad will discuss these factors during your FREE consultation to help you make an informed decision. We will discuss all the bridge dental options.
 

What Is the Treatment Process Like?

The journey to getting your fixed implant supported bridges involves several steps. It can take anywhere from a few months to longer, depending on your unique condition. Factors like the number of teeth you're replacing and the condition of your jawbone can affect your timetable. For example, replacing 3-4 teeth might only require two implants, while an entire arch could need between 4 to 8 implants, based on your unique needs.

Here's a simplified overview of the process of implants at Courthouse Art of Dentistry:

Initial FREE Evaluation

Your journey begins with a thorough FREE oral health assessment. Our team will check your bone density, overall health, and hygiene using X-rays or a CBCT scan to better understand your needs. We'll discuss different treatment options that work best for you.
 

Records of Your Mouth

After Your initial FREE evaluation, we will create detailed records of your mouth, including photos and measurements.
 

Implant Placement

During your fixed implant bridge placement stage, we may perform any necessary extractions and place the implants, often on the same day. This ensures your comfort through local anesthesia and IV sedation. We will provide temporary healthy teeth while your implants heal and integrate with your jawbone.
 

Abutment Placement

Depending on how well your implants are stabilizing, we may place abutments connecting the implants to the full arch implant bridge during your initial implant appointment.
 

Allowing Time for Healing

After your implants have fully integrated, we will take final impressions and discuss your preferences for your smile design, including tooth shape and shade, to ensure your new smile is just the way you want it.


Your dental insurance may cover a portion of your cost. However, we will do our best to get you the maximum reimbursement for your treatment cost.

We also offer affordable, interest-free, in-house payment plans so you can pay for your dental bridge cost in easy installments. At Courthouse Art of Dentistry, Dr. Joseph Khalil or Dr. Patrick Haddad will guide you through each step!
 

How Do I Find Out If I’m a Good Candidate for Fixed Implant Bridges?

Determining whether you are a candidate for fixed implant tooth bridges involves a comprehensive evaluation by a qualified dentist. At Courthouse Art of Dentistry, Dr. Joseph Khalil or Dr. Patrick Haddad will begin with a detailed oral health assessment, discussing your dental history and specific needs.

They will evaluate the condition of your gums, how many teeth you want to have replaced, and consider your overall health and any existing medical conditions that may impact your procedure. X-rays or advanced imaging techniques may analyze bone density and structure, ensuring adequate implant support.

After discussing your needs, we may recommend fixed implant bridges for your smile. Don't worry about the dental bridge cost; contact us at Courthouse Art of Dentistry to know more about the financing options.
