Dental bridges, also known as fixed partial dentures, are a reliable solution for replacing one or more missing teeth. Designed to “bridge” the gap, these restorations are anchored securely to natural teeth or crowns on either side and are permanently bonded for lasting support. Crafted from materials like porcelain or ceramic, dental bridges are both durable and natural-looking, blending seamlessly with your smile.

If you're missing a single tooth or several teeth in a row, a dental bridge may be an ideal solution. Gaps in your smile can impact more than just appearance—they can affect your bite, lead to jaw discomfort, and even contribute to TMJ issues. A dental bridge helps restore balance to your bite, improves chewing and speech, and enhances your smile’s overall function and aesthetics.
Getting a dental bridge typically involves two appointments. During your first visit, the teeth adjacent to the gap are gently reshaped to make room for crowns that will anchor the bridge. Impressions are then taken and sent to a dental lab, where your custom bridge is crafted.
In the meantime, you'll receive a temporary bridge to protect your prepared teeth and gums. On your second visit, we’ll remove the temporary and carefully fit your permanent bridge. Once it's properly positioned, it will be securely bonded in place to restore your smile and bite.
To keep your bridge in great shape, maintain a consistent oral hygiene routine—brush and floss daily, and use any specialized tools your dentist may recommend. Regular dental check-ups are also important to ensure your bridge continues to function well. With proper care, your bridge can provide many years of comfort and confidence.
