A dental professional may recommend their patients go through with getting a dental bridge for many reasons. The most common reason why someone would be considered for a dental bridge is when they are missing one or more teeth, usually in the back of their mouth, when a dental crown could not be used to correct the issue. When it comes to dental bridges, Isthachatta patients may find that they are having some issues to adjusting to their new dental work. Most people assume that dental bridges are going to look and feel just like a pier of teeth, but this is not the case and many people need some time to adjust.
Eating with a New Dental Bridge
Most people are shocked the first time they try to eat a meal with newly acquired dental bridges. Isthachatta residents might be under the impression that eating with a dental bridge is going to be like eating with their regular teeth, but this is not true. Patients often say that chewing with a dental bridge is a lot different from their regular teeth because they cannot feel their food the same way. Although teeth are bones, they have nerves in them, which makes them sensitive to food and other objects.
Speaking with a New dental Bridge
Apart from being able to chew properly, another issue some patients have a hard time adjusting to is talking with their dental bridges. Isthachatta residents will have more or less success with them after their appointment depending on where the dental bridge was placed in a patient’s mouth. The close a dental bridge gets to the front of someone’s mouth, the harder it is for a person to speak properly. Patients who are getting a dental bridge done towards the back of their mouth may never have an issue with talking.
