The importance of dental bridges • Because bridges are filling up that visible gap between the teeth, they can help a patient to smile once again with a beaming face. They also restore the chewing function of the jaw and help with speaking. Once the gaps are closed, the bridges help to maintain the natural shape of your jaw which will no longer find a reason to contort in order to fill up the missing spaces. • Yet another primary function of the teeth is to properly distribute the pressure when you bite down on food, something which is negatively disrupted due to the missing teeth.
