Can dental bridges be replaced if they become damaged?

Yes, dental bridges can be replaced if they become damaged, worn, or no longer fit properly. Over time, they may experience wear from chewing, grinding, or age, or may break or become loose.
If your bridge is damaged, your dentist will assess its condition to determine whether it can be repaired or needs to be fully replaced. In some cases, the bridge may be re-cemented or adjusted, but if it's beyond repair, a new one will be custom-made.
When replacing a dental bridge, your dentist will take new impressions and may suggest a different type of bridge, such as an implant-supported option, if appropriate for your needs.
To prevent damage, be sure to follow good oral hygiene practices and avoid hard or sticky foods. If you notice any issues with your bridge, it's important to schedule a consultation with your dentist promptly.
