Implant supported bridges

Such restorations enable the replacement of multiple missing teeth. They can be placed 3 to 6 months after implantation, identically as in single implant supported crows. The following depicts the procedure:

• Frist visit – the dentist uncovers the implant by incising the gingiva, in order to place a healing cap for soft tissue/gingiva shaping.
• Second visit – once the gingiva is shaped after approximately 14 days of wearing healing caps, the dentist takes an impression with transfers and an opposing arch impression. At this point, the laboratory technician prepares the implant-supported bridge.
• Third visit – the dentist cements the restoration.
