Most people will feel some discomfort or sensitivity in the days immediately after receiving a dental bridge. It can take a little bit of time to adjust to the feel of a new bridge after its fitting by your dentist.
Key takeaways:
– Brushing your teeth with toothpaste specifically designed to ease sensitivity can ease any immediate discomfort.
– Consult your dentist if your bite does not adjust and continues to feel unusual.
– Practice a good oral routine including regular flossing to help look after the dental bridge in the long term.
