A temporary bridge was placed before I moved. What should I do?+
Contact the clinic soon and explain the situation. A temporary is not meant to replace the final work, so your dentist will want to see how things stand.
Can you finish a bridge that was started by another dentist?+
It may be possible, but that depends on what has been done so far. Your dentist needs to examine the teeth first and might suggest a different plan.
What if my dental records are from another country?+
Bring what you have, in whatever language it is written. Your dentist can use what is helpful and rely on an examination and any appropriate X-rays for the rest.
Should I replace a bridge just because it was made elsewhere?+
No. Where a bridge was made does not by itself tell you it needs replacing. An examination looks at how well it fits and what condition the supports are in.
Will my previous treatment plan be followed here?+
It can be useful background, though any recommendation should reflect your present examination. If the advice differs, ask your dentist to explain why.
