What is a Maryland dental bridge?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 май 2023
- #shorts A Maryland bridge is a type of bonded dental bridge that can be used to replace a missing front tooth. It is much less expensive than a dental implant and it does not require grinding down two healthy teeth like a traditional 3 tooth fixed bridge. The backs of the teeth next to the space are trimmed and the Maryland bridge is bonded to the teeth.

Anyone watching have a Maryland bridge? What do you think of it?
Resin bonded bridge
I very much need this! I have a baby tooth with no adult tooth above it so it’s finally rotting out- I am so embarrassed that I’ve waited but I can NOT have a missing tooth & don’t have 1.5K for an implant. I’m doing this bridge thing for sure🙏🏾🥹
I tried this maryland tooth in replacement of false denture. The maryland tooth didnt last month despite of me taking care of it. It was pure aesthetic, cant use the side part of my mouth for biting food. After that I resorted to fixed bridge cuz it's less expensive than a tooth implant. Been 2 years since then
Maryland bridges are very technique sensitive. Dentists that are good at placing them, love them. The rest of us recommend either dental implants or Monodont bridges. ruclips.net/video/u3P-n4Acw8E/видео.html
In the long term u will loose your teeth
@@footballshots7594 Hi, if a Maryland Bridge fails, just just likely to come loose without damaging the teeth.
@@VeryNiceSmileDental Yh so worse case if the maryland bridge falls out or damages then you can just place a new one right? Since none of the teeth including the adjacent ones are damaged.
@VeryNiceSmileDental mine just come out coz i bit me fork,i had mine in for about 13 years
Getting the right dentist is the 🔑. He’s either in it for the money or in it to help his patients which is he???
As a person who works on these about 3x/ week I can tell you that these Maryland bridges are great to replace the missing tooth, but, they have horrible retention and will most likely fall out or come unglued within 2-3 yrs. But hey, if it fills in the gap, who cares if you have to get it recemented every couple years haha
That's not what's been described in the literature. It's about equal to conventional bridges in anterior teeth
I’ve heard quite the opposite, most research I’ve seen said they can last up to 8-10-years, some even 15, either way, I could live with replacing it every 2-3 years if needed.
Maybe you are talking about a temporary splint
I think a regular bridge is better for me top right and bottom jaw. Because this one doesn’t file the other teeth but clearly lasts alot shorter where as the other one has a greater chance of lasting up to 15 years depending on how well I take care of it.
i had this done around 2 years ago, u just gotta be careful with what u eat 😭 and i still have the fear everyday that it’s gonna become loose or fall out, but luckily so far it’s still intact !
Fingers crossed that it stays in well!
Advantages: Will not damage enamel
I think the design of the Maryland dental bridge, can prepare for dental implants. When enough funds are available, the Maryland dental bridge can be dismantled, and replaced with dental implants.
PEOPLE, DONT LOSE YOUR TEETH
accidents happen
Oh wow really???!!! I couldn't have possibly known!!!!!!😮😮🙊🫨🥵😱😱
Most people do this because they have to, not for luxury.
Damn! Which I'd thought of that!
I was born missing two adult front teeth 😭 some people just have bad luck man
I'm so depressed about my missing tooth. without knowing i askes my dentist to remove my decayed front tooth, i didn't know there many options i can do for decay.
Front teeth are usually more difficult to treat. I rec implant if you can afford it. Unlike the other options it retains the bone structure long term so your jaw doesn’t degrade. Don’t be too sad things happen and you’ll prob know better from now on. I definitely do.
The way my chipped tooth was fixed is with a bunch of filling, making it semi-transparent, but if it lasts as long as the reattachment of the original tooth did when it first broke, it'll fall out to be replaced by a crown right when I'm done growing.
-and even then, the repair only failed because I accidentally bit down on a Tic-Tac, and it went flying with my tooth.
Thanks 😊
You're welcome!
I got like 2 molars that are rotten one on both sides but dont have alot of money what should i do i dont mind getting one of them pulled but i really dont wanna loose both of them and from the research i did most solutions in keeping ecen one tooth would cost over 500-1000$
See a dentist. They can take a look at your teeth and give you some treatment options.
Take care of your tooth please
Hello, how do you clean the Maryland Bridge? Is it convenient to floss?
I'm worried that it's not easy to clean, and can easily breed bacteria?
Hi, you can slip dental floss underneath the fake tooth using a floss threader. Here is a video I made that shows how to use a floss threader. ruclips.net/video/0NXm2tEVC0I/видео.html
why is it called "Maryland bridge"? I lived in maryland for 4 years
Hi, my guess is that it was invented in Maryland. The oldest dental school in the USA is in Baltimore, MD.
Can the tooth bite down on thing without being attached to the jaw?
It can but it's relying on the cement to hold it in place. I tell my patients to avoid biting into foods with the Maryland bridge.
Which one is best..?
Which one costly..?
Hi, I go into more detail in this video, ruclips.net/video/AdDgGvFA5O0/видео.html
Me interesa hay en la Ciudad de México???
How would flossing work
Hi, you would need to use a floss threader to floss underneath the bridge. ruclips.net/video/0NXm2tEVC0I/видео.html
You do a Maryland floss
How will you floss with this?
Hi, you need to use a floss threader to get the floss underneath the bridge. Here's a video I made about how to use a floss threader. ruclips.net/video/0NXm2tEVC0I/видео.html
The back of the tooth erh has to be "adjusted" aka shaving down the back of the tooth...lol
It's adjusted just enough to show a finish line for the lab. The prep doesn't go through the enamel at all.
Can't bond it to a crown though.
No. In those situations, sometimes making a two tooth cantilevered bridge may be a better option.
@@VeryNiceSmileDental I have two front middle tooth crowns and a gap to the side.
Is have this one
How long have you had it?

Cost of maryland bridge
Cost will vary depending on where you live. In my area they are around $2200.
@@VeryNiceSmileDental If it's that much might as well invest into an implant.
@@gEnIoOhAzEl Yup.
You’re better off getting a 3 unit Bridge, it’s actually cemented on to your adjacent teeth.
does it have a side effect?
They can be prone to coming loose.
@@VeryNiceSmileDentalwhat happens when it comes loose?
@@lkward01 It needs to be rebonded to the teeth.
@@VeryNiceSmileDental does it cost extra?

You can't grind on healthy teeth and expect good long lasting effects
Wanna do an implant for one of my molar tooth that was removed and my dentist said it will cost me $1,370 is this true?
He explained that after inspection of everything, they'll drill and install a metal that will be there for 6 months then after cells have grown around it, they will insert the final tooth. Does it work this way?
I'm afraid of constant headaches and pain that I believe accompany such a dental procedure
Hi, talk to your dentist about the complete cost of having a tooth replaced with a dental implant. Costs involved will be be the dental implant, the post, and the crown, plus bone grafts possibly. In my area (just north of NYC) an implant, post, and crown cost close to $4k from start to finish.
Most people say they don't have any discomfort after having the implant placed.
You say it doesn't require grinding then show how it requires grinding.
Hi, I said the teeth don't need to be ground down like they would be for a conventional 3 tooth fixed bridge. For a maryland bridge, the prep is very shallow and doesn't go through the enamel.
i do not smile
God
Implants, if you can afford them, are still much better. They stimulate the bone, preventing bone loss, and they'll last so much longer.
I went through hell, excruciating pain and the darn screw fell out. So no
@@Mehki227 That... is not normal.
Hm
They don’t last long
Better to get fixed dental bridge
How long does this last please?
Hi, it depends on the situation. In the right situation it can last for many years. In the wrong situation it will only last a few months.
Ooooooo
First
utter cheap BS, this will not last years. Maybe not even a year.
You need a better dentist.
One that sells BS like this as a good solution and still charges beaucoup $ , fully knowing it will not fix the problem, resulting in you having to come back and pay EVEN MORE ? My dentist will not do that. If you still have some integrity left, neither should you.@@VeryNiceSmileDental
Damn this did not age well
What do you mean?
@@VeryNiceSmileDentalMaryland bridge incident
Ship collided with the Francis Scott Key Bridge
@@VeryNiceSmileDental yep what he said
