Frequently Asked Questions
Why does my dental bridge suddenly feel loose?
A bridge may feel loose if the cement holding it has weakened, the bridge itself is damaged, or one of the supporting teeth has changed. A dentist can check the bridge and the teeth underneath it to find the cause.
How do I know if something is wrong with my dental bridge?
Signs of a problem can include movement when you bite, pain or sensitivity around the supporting teeth, difficulty chewing, a change in how your bite feels, or visible damage to the bridge.
Why did my dental bridge crack or break?
A bridge can become damaged from normal wear, biting hard foods or objects, teeth grinding, an injury, or problems involving the teeth that support it.
Is a loose dental bridge something I need to have checked right away?
A loose bridge should be evaluated promptly. Continuing to chew with it may place additional pressure on the bridge or supporting teeth and could allow the restoration to become more unstable.
My dental bridge came out. What should I do with it?
Keep the bridge in a clean, safe container and contact a dentist. Do not use household glue or other adhesives to put it back in place. Bring the bridge with you to your appointment so the dentist can examine it.
Can my dentist put my bridge back on if it fell out?
Sometimes. Whether the bridge can be reattached depends on its condition and the health of the supporting teeth. The dentist will need to examine both before deciding whether it can be placed back.
Does a broken dental bridge always have to be replaced?
No. Some bridge problems can be repaired or adjusted. If the bridge is badly damaged or the supporting teeth can no longer hold it securely, replacement may be recommended.
Can a dentist fix a bridge that moves when I chew?
The dentist can examine why the bridge is moving and determine what needs to be done. Treatment may involve adjusting or reattaching the bridge, repairing it, or replacing it depending on the cause.
Why does the tooth under my bridge hurt?
Pain around a bridge can come from several sources, including a problem with a supporting tooth, irritation around the gums, or pressure from the bridge. An examination can help determine where the discomfort is coming from.
What will the dentist check when my bridge is damaged?
The dentist will examine the bridge, your bite, and the teeth supporting the restoration. X-rays may also be taken when needed to check areas that cannot be fully evaluated during a visual exam.
What happens if one of the teeth holding my bridge is damaged?
The supporting tooth will need to be evaluated before the bridge can be repaired or replaced. The treatment depends on what has happened to the tooth and whether it can continue to support the bridge.
Why does my bite feel different after my bridge became loose?
A loose or damaged bridge can shift slightly and change how your upper and lower teeth meet. Avoid repeatedly biting down to test it, and have the bridge checked by a dentist.
Can I keep using my bridge if only one side feels loose?
It is best not to continue chewing normally with a partially loose bridge. Pressure from eating may cause additional movement or damage. Try to avoid chewing on that side until a dentist evaluates it.
Can I get my loose or broken dental bridge checked today in Upland?
Same-day appointments may be available for loose, broken, or displaced dental bridges. Call (909) 285-9850 to ask about the earliest available appointment.
What can I eat while I’m waiting to have my bridge repaired?
Choose softer foods and avoid hard, sticky, or chewy foods that could put additional pressure on the bridge. When possible, chew on the opposite side of your mouth.
