What Is a Dental Bridge?
A dental bridge is a fixed restoration used to replace one or more missing teeth by anchoring an artificial tooth to neighboring teeth or dental implants. Each bridge is custom-made to blend with your natural teeth in shape, size, and color.
As part of our restorative dentistry services, dental bridges help maintain proper bite alignment and prevent shifting of surrounding teeth.
Benefits of Dental Bridges
A dental bridge can support both function and appearance by:
- Restoring the ability to chew and speak comfortably
- Preventing adjacent teeth from shifting out of position
- Supporting proper bite alignment
- Filling gaps to create a more complete smile
- Providing a fixed, non-removable tooth replacement option
For some patients, bridges may be an alternative to dental implants, depending on their oral health and preferences.
Types of Dental Bridges We Offer
Traditional Dental Bridges
Supported by crowns placed on adjacent teeth, this is a common option for patients with healthy teeth on both sides of the gap.
Implant-Supported Bridges
Anchored by dental implants instead of natural teeth, offering added stability and helping preserve jawbone health.
Cantilever Bridges
Used when only one adjacent tooth is available to support the restoration.
Maryland Bonded Bridges
A more conservative option that uses bonded wings instead of crowns, typically for front teeth.
During your consultation, we’ll help determine which option best fits your needs.
The Dental Bridge Process
1. Consultation & Evaluation
Dr. Emily Conley will assess your oral health and discuss your goals to determine the right treatment approach.
2. Tooth Preparation or Implant Planning
For traditional bridges, adjacent teeth are prepared to support crowns. For implant-supported options, implant placement is planned.
3. Temporary Restoration
A temporary bridge may be placed while your custom restoration is being created.
4. Final Placement
Your permanent bridge is carefully fitted and secured, restoring both function and appearance.
Our team uses modern techniques and advanced dental technology to ensure precise, comfortable treatment.
How Long Do Dental Bridges Last?
With proper care, dental bridges can last 10–15 years or longer. To maintain your bridge:
- Brush and floss daily, including around the bridge
- Schedule regular visits for preventative care
- Avoid chewing hard objects like ice
- Wear a nightguard if recommended
Routine checkups help ensure your bridge and surrounding teeth remain healthy.
Frequently Asked Questions About Dental Bridges
How do bridges compare to dental implants?
Bridges are a non-surgical option that can restore missing teeth more quickly, while implants involve surgery and may offer longer-term bone support. We’ll help you choose the best option for your situation.
Is the procedure comfortable?
Yes. Local anesthesia is used during treatment, and most patients experience only mild sensitivity afterward.
Can I eat normally with a bridge?
Yes. Once placed, a dental bridge allows you to eat most foods comfortably, though very hard or sticky foods should be limited.
How do I clean a dental bridge?
Special tools like floss threaders or interdental brushes help clean underneath the bridge and maintain gum health.
Is a dental bridge covered by insurance?
Many plans offer partial coverage. Our team can review your benefits and discuss options, including financing.
