Achieve a full, seamless smile with our dental bridge solutions at our clinic. Our experienced dentists and team create and fit dental bridges that perfectly match your natural teeth, enhancing both the function and aesthetics of your smile.
What Are Dental Bridges?
Dental bridges are custom-made replacements for one or more missing teeth that literally “bridge” the gap created by missing teeth. They are anchored on either side by crowns placed on natural teeth or dental implants, which serve as supports for the bridge. Bridges are made from various materials, including porcelain fused to metal or ceramics, chosen to blend with your natural tooth color.
Your Experience With Dental Bridges
When you visit us for a dental bridge, our dentists will first assess the health of your gums and the neighboring teeth to ensure they can support a bridge. Impressions of your teeth will then be taken to create a bridge that fits perfectly into the gap and feels as natural as it looks. The process typically involves a couple of visits: one for preparing the anchor teeth and taking molds, and another to fit the bridge and adjust it for comfort and functionality.
