Rebuild Your Smile With Natural-looking Dental Bridges
Missing teeth can impact how you eat, speak, and even how you feel about your smile. Dental bridges offer a dependable solution to close those gaps and restore both function and appearance. Each bridge is crafted to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, enhancing comfort and confidence in your everyday life.
How Dental Bridges Help
A dental bridge replaces missing teeth with lifelike artificial ones, known as pontics. These are supported by the neighboring teeth or dental implants, creating a secure and natural fit. Along with improving how you chew and speak, bridges also prevent nearby teeth from shifting and help maintain the natural shape of your face.
Types of Dental Bridges
Your dentist will recommend the best type of bridge based on your specific needs:
Traditional Bridge
This common design uses crowns on the teeth adjacent to the gap to anchor the replacement tooth securely. It’s a strong, durable option when healthy teeth are present on both sides.
Cantilever Bridge
Ideal when there’s only one tooth next to the empty space. The false tooth is supported by a single anchor tooth, providing strength and stability.
Maryland Bridge
This bridge features a metal or porcelain framework bonded to the back of the surrounding teeth. It requires minimal tooth preparation and is a conservative option for replacing missing teeth.
