Nano-Ceramic Bridges
It's now been over 5 years since having G4. I get a lot of complements on my smile and people tell me I don't look my age. My smile is a big part of me looking younger. I decided to upgrade to nano-ceramic bridges last year during my recare visit at Tysons Corner, VA, a closer location for me than Las Vegas, although Vegas is much more fun. Love the nano-ceramic material and finally love my smile. Arlex and the rest of the design team at Tysons Corner are masters at crafting beautiful smiles.
Second Follow-up Visit
I went back to Las Vegas this past week for my 2nd follow-up visit. On both my initial visit and my first follow-up visit I had surgery, so it was nice to be in town for just a normal follow-up visit.
I purchased their $3500 10 year extended warranty on my initial visit a year ago, so my bridges are warranted for 15 years. Thank goodness I didn't delay my surgery, because the extended warranty is no longer offered and the warranty for the bridges is now only two years for new customers, but the good news is the price is cheaper so more people may be able to afford to get G4 implants.
When they were cleaning my bridges they discovered a crack. Since the newer bridge material is different from the older bridge material, both upper and lower bridges were remade so they would match. This new material is much better. Before the new bridges were made, I discussed with them my concerns with my current bridges and I’m happy to say they addressed them all. The bulkiness of my bridges is gone, the ledge is now barely there, the gum areas look more natural, and the bridges are slightly shorter so I no longer bite my left cheek. I also asked for smaller teeth, but was told my teeth need to be a certain size to function correctly, so while I would prefer smaller teeth, it’s just not possible, if I want my teeth to function well. My bite was also off on the right side so I had been chewing mainly on the left side. With these new bridges they corrected my right side bite issues, except I’m now biting my front right cheek occasionally. It's been years since I've chewed food on the right side, so I just need to slow down when chewing until it becomes more natural to chew on the right side again. A minor complaint since all my other issues, except tooth size, were fixed.
While these new bridges feel great, unfortunately food still gets trapped under them. It's mainly under the lower bridge. It's not really a big deal unless I'm eating in public. Not only do these bridges feel great, they really do feel more like real teeth. Now I see why people are getting used to them so fast. I do agree with others that this new ‘flexi’ material feels dryer and not as smooth, but the positives of this new material far, far outweighs the minor negatives.

Upper Bridge Ledge
Posting a picture of my upper bridge and the ledge behind my teeth. The ledge is approximately 1/2" deep. Sorry for the out of focus pic. My phone won't focus this close.
