Discover the Best Clinics and Costs for Dental bridge installation in Turkey 2024

A dental bridge is a fixed prosthesis that is attached to healthy teeth on either side of the missing teeth. Bridges are often made of metal, ceramic, cermet, or zirconia.

To place a bridge, the patient needs to come to the clinic 2 times. The installation of dental bridges takes place in 5 stages:

Stage 1. The doctor carefully examines the patient's oral cavity. After the examination, he appoints a panoramic x-ray of the upper and lower jaw for a detailed study of the anatomical location.

Stage 2. Before installing a bridge, the doctor treats caries and gum disease. He removes tartar and conducts hardware cleaning of the dentition.

Stage 3. The doctor cuts 2 teeth on both sides of the gap. After that, he makes a cast of the jaw to create the most accurate model of the bridge. It is made individually according to the size and color of the patient's teeth.

Stage 4. If you wish, the doctor can install a temporary dental bridge while the permanent one is being made.

Stage 5 The dentist removes the temporary bridge and fixes the permanent one with dental cement. Procedures are performed under local anesthesia.

The length of the bridge prosthesis can be from 3 to 14 crowns. In most cases, doctors install a dental bridge on 3, 4 and 5 teeth.

A 3-tooth bridge is placed on the front or back of the jaw. Prosthesis for 4 teeth - on the extreme incisors or the back of the jaws.

The main advantages of installing a dental bridge are:

• favorable price - for example, the installation of a dental bridge in Turkey costs about $200, and implantation of all on 4 teeth - from $1,816.
• fast getting used to the design - occurs after 1-3 days;
• fixed prosthetics - convenient for the patient, since the bridge is securely fixed and it does not fall out;
• long wearing time - a dental bridge can last from 10 years if you follow the right care.

If you need to place a bridge for 5+ teeth, dentists install it on 2-3 dental implants. This will help fix the bridge more securely, so it will last longer.

The cost of a dental bridge depends on the following factors:

• Additional medical and non-medical services. The final price is affected by the costs of diagnostic procedures, caries treatment, anesthesia, tickets, transfers, translation services, accommodation and meals. Some clinics include non-medical services in the cost of treatment. This reduces the patient's overall travel costs. The Bookimed medical coordinator will tell you more about this.
• Selected country and dental clinic. The cost of bridges depends on the pricing in a particular state. For example, the installation of a dental bridge in Turkey costs about $200, and in Mexico it costs $500. Prices in different clinics of the same country differ depending on the class of the medical center.
• bridge material. Often, metal bridges are cheaper than ceramic and zirconium bridges.

The main indications for the placement of bridges are: the absence of one or more teeth, and acute diseases.

Absolute contraindications include:

• blood diseases (severe anemia, hemophilia, blood cancer);
• connective tissue diseases (scleroderma, Marfan's syndrome);
• disorders of the nervous system (Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy);
• diseases of the oral mucosa (aphthous ulcers, Sjögren's syndrome, pemphigus);
• autoimmune diseases (multiple sclerosis, systemic lupus erythematosus);
• acute mental illness;
• malocclusion;
• diabetes mellitus type I;
• tuberculosis in the acute stage.

Relative contraindications to the installation of bridges are:

• radiation therapy;
• drug addiction;
• age up to 17 years;
• pregnancy.

There are 4 main types of bridges:

• classic - fixed with dental cement on turned teeth on both sides of the gap;
• cantilever - attached to one tooth, which is located next to the gap;
• Maryland - fixed on 2 adjacent teeth, as in the classic, but using a metal or porcelain frame;
• based on implants - attached to 2-3 dental implants.

According to the method of placement, bridge structures are:

• on turned teeth - the bridge is attached to the turned teeth with dental cement;
• on implants - the bridge is installed on a dental implant.

According to the installation area, bridges are divided into:

• front ;
• rear .

According to Bookimed partner clinics, bridges are made from the following materials :

• metal;
• cermets;
• ceramics;
• zirconia.

Dental bridges for 3 teeth are made from all materials, for 4 or more teeth - from cermet or zirconium.

On the front part (incisors), prostheses are mainly placed from materials that are most suitable for the color of the patient's teeth. For example, from ceramics. At that time, (chewing) ceramic bridges were rarely placed on the back , as they were fragile. In this case, cermets or zirconium are chosen.

On average, the dental bridge of the molars will last 5-7 years, but with proper care - more than 10 years. Therefore, we advise you to follow all the recommendations of the dentist so that the bridge is not damaged before the specified period.

After installing the bridge , you must :

• maintain perfect oral hygiene: brush your teeth with fluoride-containing paste 2 times a day, use dental floss and rinse;
• if possible, use an irrigator (more thoroughly cleans the areas of the teeth where the brush or floss does not reach);
• after drinking coffee or tea, rinse your mouth with water;
• do not bite through solid food with a bridge (for example, lollipops);
• every 6 months to undergo a preventive examination at the dentist;
• consult a doctor if you have any complaints.

The bridge structure is installed with contraindications to dental implantation. If the patient can financially afford dental implants with crowns, dentists recommend installing them. This will protect the bone tissue, the tooth does not have to be turned.

In addition, dental bridges need to be replaced every 5-15 years, and implants are a permanent solution to the problem.

If your dental bridge has fallen off, it means that the structure is damaged. In most cases, the denture cannot be reused, it will no longer fit snugly against your teeth. You need to contact your dentist to re-manufacture and install a dental bridge.

We have selected photos before and after prosthetics so that you can evaluate the results of the transformation of patients.
