Dental Bridges are a custom restoration designed to replace one or more missing teeth in a row. Unlike removable dentures, bridges are fixed in place, offering a stable, long-term solution for restoring your smile and bite function. They consist of prosthetic teeth (pontics) supported by dental crowns placed on the adjacent teeth or, in some cases, anchored with dental implants for added stability.
Benefits of a Dental Bridge
A well-crafted dental bridge helps:
- Restore a complete smile by closing gaps
- Prevent neighboring teeth from shifting
- Improve chewing, speaking, and overall function
- Even out bite pressure, reducing strain on surrounding teeth
- Support facial structure, preventing a sunken appearance
- Enhance the aesthetics of your smile
