Bridges

A single missing tooth doesn’t need to diminish your smile. A dental bridge can conservatively restore your smile, giving you back your looks and your health.

What are Dental Bridges?

A dental bridge is a popular form of restoration. When a patient has a missing tooth but healthy teeth surrounding, we’re able to use a bridge to replace the one missing tooth. We use a pontic, or fake tooth, in the center and use the surrounding healthy teeth as anchors for the bridge. This closes the gap.

What are the Benefits of Dental Bridges?

Dental bridges are an excellent option for those missing one or a couple of teeth. The benefits include:

• More conservative restoration
• Improved oral health and function
• Increased confidence in smile

What is the Process of Getting a Dental Bridge?

Getting a dental bridge takes time. So, there’s a process to making sure you get the perfect fit. During your first visit, we’ll prepare your surrounding teeth and make impressions to start your bridge. You’ll wear a temporary bridge until your custom one is created. During your second appointment, we’ll attach your new bridge and ensure you have a perfect fit! Once the bridge is set right, it’ll be cemented into place.
