If you are missing one or more teeth, a dental bridge can be an effective solution to restore the appearance and function of your smile. Dental bridges are fixed restorations, meaning they stay securely in place and are not removable. They work by filling the gap left by a missing tooth with a natural-looking prosthetic, which is anchored to the surrounding teeth using dental crowns. At our dental office, we are proud to offer custom dental bridges that can help you regain your confidence and improve your oral health.
A dental bridge typically consists of an artificial tooth (or teeth) that is held in place by crowns placed on the adjacent natural teeth or dental implants. These crowns are custom-made to fit your unique smile, ensuring a comfortable, natural look and feel. Once in place, a dental bridge can help you chew and speak properly, prevent other teeth from shifting out of position and restore the overall aesthetics of your smile. The procedure usually requires two visits to our office: one to prepare the supporting teeth and take impressions, and another to place and secure the bridge.
There are several benefits to choosing a dental bridge if you are dealing with tooth loss. By filling in the gaps, a bridge can restore your ability to eat a wide variety of foods comfortably and without pain. It also supports your facial structure, helping to maintain the natural shape and volume of your face, which can sometimes be affected by missing teeth. Additionally, bridges can improve your speech, which may be impacted by gaps in your teeth, and they also prevent the remaining teeth from shifting into the empty spaces, helping to maintain a healthy bite.
Our dental team will work with you to determine if a bridge is the best solution for your needs. We will guide you through the entire process, ensuring that your restoration is designed to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth. Dental bridges are built to last for many years with proper care, making them a long-term investment in your oral health and smile.
