Dental Bridge
A dental bridge is a group of artificial teeth that are placed where there are missing teeth, especially if there’s a missing row of teeth. There are several types of dental bridges, and they generally consist of abutments with artificial teeth (pontics). The most common type is the traditional dental bridge, which is made of dental crowns on both ends of the bridge with artificial teeth between them. A traditional dental bridge is prepared by taking a dental impression to the lab to make it, and sometimes a temporary bridge is used until the final one becomes ready. It usually takes 2-4 weeks to make the bridge.

Tooth Extraction
In a tooth extraction, a tooth is removed completely from its socket. Dental extraction is done when the tooth is severely damaged and other treatments didn’t work, such as severe tooth decay, a fractured tooth, crowded teeth, damage in the tissue and ligaments surrounding the tooth, and severe gum disease. The tooth extraction procedure is done under local anesthesia, and in some cases, the dentist might need to make incisions inside the gum in the place of the extracted tooth, or they might need to make a dental bone graft .

Dental Implants
The dental implant procedure aims to replace missing or damaged teeth with artificial ones. The artificial tooth consists of three parts: an artificial tooth root (threaded post), an abutment, and a dental restoration, which could be a crown , a bridge , or a denture . Dental implants are mostly made of titanium and sometimes ceramic. In the dental implant surgery, firstly an incision is made in the gum to create a hole in the jawbone to implant the threaded post, then it’s left for about 3-9 months or more to fuse completely with the bone. After that, the abutment and dental restoration are placed. Dental implant surgery is done under local anesthesia and sometimes general anesthesia, and the time of the procedure differs depending on the case.
