You should consult a dentist or prosthodontist if:

You have missing teeth and wish to restore your smile

You’re unable to chew properly or have speech difficulties

You want a fixed, long-term alternative to removable dentures

You’re considering dental implants and need a bridge-supported solution

 Do’s:

Brush and floss daily, especially around the bridge area

Use a special floss threader or interdental brush for cleaning under the bridge

Schedule regular dental checkups and professional cleanings

Eat a balanced diet to maintain strong gums and teeth

 Don’ts:

Avoid biting hard objects (ice, pens, nuts)

Don’t skip oral hygiene routines

Avoid sticky foods that may loosen the bridge

Do not ignore gum discomfort or bad breath — it may indicate plaque buildup beneath the bridge
