When one or more missing teeth create gaps in your smile, you may benefit from dental bridges. Our team will consult with you and help you know if they feel whether dental bridges would be best for your smile. With a custom-made restoration and porcelain replacement teeth, dental bridges are a natural-looking restoration that is a good fit for many people! Plus, we are pleased to offer both removable bridges and fixed bridges, which are securely held in place with dental implants.
Dental bridges are sturdy, non-removable dental restorations. The dental bridge is anchored in place through the use of two dental crowns, which are custom made to fit your smile and are placed on the teeth or dental implants next to the space left by the missing tooth. These crowns hold the artificial tooth in place to restore your smile, ensuring that your restoration will not easily shift or come loose. It typically requires only two visits to our practice to complete the dental bridge. Dental bridges are designed to last for many years and to restore the function, beauty, and health of your smile.
We might recommend a dental bridge for:
- Restoring your ability to speak, eat, and chew as normal
- Alleviating excess stress on the bite
- Improving the shape and volume of your face
- Replacing an unwanted removable partial denture
- Preventing the remaining natural teeth from moving out of position
- Enhancing the appearance of your smile
