Hello!
I would like to know whether it is possible to make a bridge containing some all-ceramic (AC) and some metal-ceramic (MC) units. I am also interested in the approximate price of an upper bridge where on one side teeth 4, 5 and 6 are missing (3AC, 4AC, 5MC, 6MC, 7MC), and on the other side tooth 5 is missing (4AC, 5MC, 6MC). I have heard that after extraction it is good to wait at least three months before deciding on a bridge; is that true? If I make an appointment for prosthetic treatment as a private-paying patient, I would also like to know the waiting time and the number of visits needed for such a procedure.
Kind regards, and compliments for taking the time to answer these questions,
Nina
Dentist Tomaž Rotar answers:
Dear Sir/Madam!
We have not yet made a combined bridge of this type in our practice. We can make it entirely all-ceramic or entirely metal-ceramic. The price of a metal-ceramic crown or pontic is EUR 210, while an all-ceramic crown or pontic costs EUR 350 (zirconia).
How long after filling we load a tooth or do not load it depends on the clinician's judgment, and an X-ray will usually also be needed to answer this question.
The waiting time in our private practice is approximately one month. We need two to three visits to make bridges. We can make everything at once or separately.
Have a nice day!
