Dental Bridges

What Are Dental Bridges?

Dental bridges are a durable and aesthetically pleasing solution for replacing one or more missing teeth. We use bridges to span the gap where teeth are absent, anchoring the replacement tooth (or teeth) to the adjacent teeth or implants. This restorative dental procedure not only improves the appearance of your smile but also restores functionality, allowing you to speak and eat with ease.

Benefits of Dental Bridges

Dental bridges offer numerous benefits, including the restoration of a complete smile, prevention of remaining teeth from drifting out of position, improved oral functions and maintenance of the face’s natural shape. By choosing a dental bridge at ConfiDent Smile Studio, patients can enjoy a long-lasting solution that blends seamlessly with their natural teeth, enhancing both oral health and confidence.

The Process of Getting a Dental Bridge

Consultation

The process begins with a detailed consultation, where Dr. Ken or Dr. Powell will evaluate your oral health and discuss the best bridge option for your needs.

Preparation

The teeth adjacent to the missing tooth are prepared to support the bridge, involving reshaping to allow the bridge to fit over them.

Impressions

Impressions of your teeth are taken to custom-make the bridge, ensuring a precise and comfortable fit.

Fitting

Once the bridge is ready, you will return to our office for fitting, adjustments and cementing, ensuring the bridge is secure and comfortable.
