If you are looking for a non-removable, secure replacement for your missing tooth, a dental bridge might be the solution your smile needs. A bridge is a dental restoration that bridges the gap left when one or more teeth are lost. Dental bridges are composed of one or more artificial teeth and two dental crowns. The custom crowns are placed on the teeth or dental implants next to the gap to anchor the restoration in place. This ensures that your dental bridge is secure and will not easily shift or come loose while eating, speaking, and chewing. Dental bridges are designed to look and function just like your natural teeth, and they can be used to effectively restore the function, beauty, and health of your smile. Our friendly dentist may recommend a dental bridge in [city], [state] in order to:
- Relieve uneven stress on the bite
- Prevent remaining natural teeth from drifting into the space left by the missing tooth
- Improve your ability to properly speak, chew, and eat
- Restore the natural volume and shape of your face
- Enhance the appearance of your smile
Your dental bridge can be completed in just two comfortable visits to our office. To learn more about bridges and to set up your next visit with Dr. [doctor_name], we welcome you to call or visit us soon.
