What Is a Prettau® Implant Bridge and Is It Right For Me?

If you’re missing most or all of your teeth on the upper or lower arch, the Prettau® Implant Bridge may be the ideal solution. At Ora Dental Implant Studio in Elk Grove, CA, we specialize in advanced full arch restorations that deliver beauty, durability, and long-term function.

A Full Arch Solution with Superior Results

The Prettau® Implant Bridge is a permanent, fixed dental bridge that is supported by dental implants. Unlike traditional dentures, which rest on the gums and can shift or loosen over time, this full arch prosthetic is securely attached to 4–6 dental implants surgically placed in the jawbone.

This implant-supported bridge is made entirely of Prettau® Zirconia, a material known for its strength, resistance to fracture, and natural-looking translucency. This makes it an excellent choice for patients who want a long-lasting, aesthetic restoration that feels and functions like real teeth.

Benefits of the Prettau® Implant Bridge

Patients in the Elk Grove area choose the Prettau® Bridge for a number of compelling reasons:

• Highly Durable: Prettau® Zirconia is significantly stronger than traditional acrylic or porcelain bridges.
• Stain-Resistant: The material resists discoloration and is less likely to stain from coffee, wine, or smoking.
• Natural Appearance: Prettau® bridges are custom-designed to mimic the look of real teeth and gums.
• Fixed Solution: Unlike dentures, you don’t have to remove the Prettau® bridge for cleaning or sleeping.
• Bone Preservation: Dental implants help stimulate the jawbone and prevent bone loss over time.

Who Is a Good Candidate?

The Prettau® Implant Bridge is designed for patients who:

• Are missing all or most of their teeth in one arch
• Want to avoid the inconvenience of removable dentures
• Have sufficient bone density or are willing to undergo bone grafting
• Are looking for a long-term, durable solution for tooth loss

If you live in or around Elk Grove, CA, and are considering a permanent solution for full arch tooth loss, Dr. Devan Dalla and our implant team can determine if you are a candidate during your consultation.

The Prettau® Bridge Process

The journey toward your new smile typically includes:

• Initial Consultation: We perform a 3D scan and evaluate your oral health and bone structure.
• Implant Placement: 4–6 implants are strategically placed in the jaw.
• Healing Period: The implants need time to fuse with the bone (osseointegration), which usually takes 3–6 months.
• Temporary Bridge: A provisional bridge can be placed to prevent you from going without teeth.
• Final Restoration: Once healing is complete, your custom Prettau® Implant Bridge is securely attached.

Long-Term Success and Patient Satisfaction

Studies show that implant-supported bridges, including Prettau®, boast success rates of over 95% after 10 years. With proper care, patients can expect these restorations to last 15 years or longer, making them one of the most cost-effective options over time.
