Dental Implants vs Bridges: Which Fits You?

Compare implants and bridges with guidance from Santana Row Dental near Santana Row.

Implants preserve neighbors

Implants replace a tooth without reshaping adjacent teeth. Bridges rely on neighboring teeth for support — a key difference your Santana Row dentist will discuss.

Time and bone

Implants need adequate bone and healing time. Bridges can be faster when anatomy or timeline limits implants.

Maintenance

Both need excellent hygiene. Special floss threaders help under bridges; implants need careful brushing around the crown.
