A Reliable, Natural Solution for Missing Teeth

What Is a Dental Bridge?

A dental bridge is a custom restoration designed to replace one or more missing teeth. It fills the gap by anchoring an artificial tooth (called a pontic) to the healthy teeth on either side of the space.

Why It’s Important to Replace Missing Teeth

Even a single missing tooth can lead to a range of issues over time. Without replacement, you may experience:

Shifting of surrounding teeth

Bite imbalance and uneven wear

Difficulty chewing certain foods

Changes in speech

Increased risk of gum disease

Loss of facial support, leading to a prematurely aged appearance

A dental bridge helps restore harmony to your bite and protects your long-term oral health.

Types of Dental Bridges

We offer several types of bridges to suit your needs:

Traditional Fixed Bridges

The most common option is using crowns placed on adjacent teeth to securely support the replacement tooth.

Maryland (Bonded) Bridges

A more conservative option that uses a framework bonded to the back of neighboring teeth.

Removable Partial Bridges

A removable option that can be taken out for cleaning, though typically less stable than fixed solutions.

Our team will recommend the best approach based on your specific condition, goals, and long-term oral health.

Caring for Your Dental Bridge

With proper care, your bridge can last for many years.
To maintain your restoration:
- Brush twice daily and floss carefully around and beneath the bridge
- Use floss threaders or interdental brushes as recommended
- Visit us regularly for cleanings and exams
- Avoid excessive pressure from hard or sticky foods
- Good oral hygiene is essential, as your bridge relies on the health of the supporting teeth.
