The cost of anterior bridges varies depending on whether they are covered by insurance or self-financing.
- Insurance coverage → Approx. 20,000 yen for a single deficient bridge (*1)
- Self-funded treatment→approx. 150,000- 450,000 yen
The difference is the materials that can be used and the degree of freedom in bridge design.
It is expected that celebrities will often choose anterior bridges that are also visually appealing, so they will basically be placing self-financing anterior bridges.
*1: When 30% of the cost is borne by the customer
*2: In the case of a three-connected anterior tooth bridge. The cost will vary depending on the number of connected anterior teeth bridges. As the number of connected teeth increases, an additional cost of 50,000 to 150,000 yen per tooth is required.
Anterior bridges covered by insurance
Anterior tooth bridges, which are covered by insurance, are made of hard resin affixed to a metal base.Hard resin anterior crowns."The number is limited to
The color of the resin can be selected to match the color of adjacent teeth.
However, because of the metal base, they are inferior in appearance to self-financed anterior bridges in the following respects
- Not as clear as natural teeth
- Gums go down and metal shows through the root of the tooth.
- Gums may darken due to metal components
Also, due to resin's characteristics of being easily scratched and absorbing moisture and pigment,The drawback is that they begin to discolor and deteriorate after two to three years.
In terms of bridge design, there is less flexibility because the materials that can be used differ between front and back teeth, and the number of teeth that must be used as the foundation (= number of healthy teeth that must be removed) is determined by the area of the lost tooth.
Insurance coverage allows the use of hard resin anterior crowns up to the third anterior canine.
If the anterior bridge includes a fourth or subsequent tooth,Hard resin up to the canine teeth, metal from the fourth toothThe first two are the following.
Self-financing anterior bridges
For self-funded anterior bridges,
- metal bond
- all-ceramic
- zirconia
etc.Material with a texture similar to natural teeth and properties that are scratch-resistant and virtually free of discolorationcan be used.
In addition, since self-financing is not bound by insurance coverage rules, bridges can be designed with a certain degree of freedom, taking into consideration strength, esthetics, and invasiveness to healthy teeth, such as whitening all front bridges including back teeth.

- Socket preservation
- This method prevents the gums from sinking after tooth extraction by placing an artificial bone and collagen membrane in the hole immediately after the extraction.
