Missing teeth can affect more than appearance — they change how you eat, speak, and care for the rest of your teeth. A dental bridge restores both function and aesthetics by spanning the gap with a fixed, natural-looking restoration.
When a tooth is lost, neighboring teeth tend to tip into the gap and the opposing tooth may over-erupt. Over time this can change the bite, make cleaning more difficult, and place uneven force on remaining teeth.
A traditional bridge anchors to adjacent teeth, while an implant-supported bridge rests on dental implants. Both are excellent options — the right choice depends on the health of your neighboring teeth, the location of the gap, and your long-term goals.
We discuss the right bridge style for your bite, hygiene, and goals.
Adjacent teeth are prepared and a digital impression is taken.
The custom bridge is bonded into place and the bite is verified.
