A dental bridge can restore and complete your smile

Do you feel self-conscious about gaps in your teeth? Have you ever held back a laugh or smile to hide an incomplete smile? If so, a dental bridge might be the solution you’ve been looking for.
A dental bridge is a custom-made prosthesis designed to fill gaps and restore your smile. The most common type is supported by dental crowns secured to your natural teeth on either side of the gap. While not everyone is a candidate for a dental bridge, there are various types of bridges and alternatives available to suit your needs.

Say goodbye to gaps and hello to a confident, radiant smile that lets you express yourself freely!

Our Process for Dental Bridges

What to Expect

A dental bridge is a less invasive alternative to dental implants, making it an excellent option for individuals with missing teeth who prefer to avoid surgery. It provides a practical solution for addressing gaps involving one to three teeth, effectively restoring function and aesthetics for many patients. If a dental bridge suits your needs, the procedure is quick and straightforward, often completed in just one appointment with our skilled dentists.

Your First Appointment

During your initial visit, we’ll prepare the teeth on either side of the gap where the artificial tooth or teeth will be placed. To ensure your comfort, a gentle anesthetic will be applied to numb the area. The supporting teeth will be carefully reshaped to accommodate crowns, providing a secure foundation for the bridge. We’ll then take precise impressions or use advanced 3D scanning technology to design a bridge that blends seamlessly with your natural smile. Once completed, your bridge will fit perfectly over the prepared teeth, closing the gap with precision and restoring your smile.

Long-lasting Benefits

Dental bridges offer numerous advantages for both function and aesthetics. You can enjoy the convenience of receiving your bridge in a single day, along with a comfortable, well-aligned bite that improves speech and reduces oral health risks like tooth decay, gum disease, and bone loss. Eating becomes pain-free, and your teeth are safeguarded from shifting, which helps prevent jaw issues like TMJ disorder. Bridges also enhance your facial structure, restoring balance and confidence to your smile. With proper care, modern bridges can last well over a decade, providing a durable and effective solution to missing teeth.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, there are three main types of dental bridges. Traditional bridges are the most common, anchoring to crowns or implants on either side of the gap and typically made of porcelain for a natural look. Cantilever bridges are used when teeth are available on only one side of the missing tooth, providing support in specific cases. Maryland bridges, often used for front teeth, rely on resin-bonded wings attached to adjacent teeth for a secure fit.

Permanent bridges are fixed and bonded securely to teeth or implants, while semi-permanent bridges, sometimes referred to as fixed partial dentures, are temporarily bonded and designed for shorter-term use.

To create a dental bridge, the supporting teeth are first prepared to act as anchors. An impression or scan is then taken to craft a custom bridge that fits your smile perfectly. Once the bridge is ready, it is test-fitted and permanently cemented into place to ensure a natural and comfortable result. Proper care and maintenance are essential for the bridge’s longevity.

Dental bridges can be made from materials like gold, alloys, or porcelain. At our clinic, porcelain is the primary choice due to its natural appearance and durability.

Dental bridges fill the gap created by missing teeth by attaching to adjacent teeth or implants, whereas crowns are prosthetic caps placed over damaged teeth to strengthen them and prevent decay. Each serves a unique purpose in restoring oral health and appearance.
