Dental Bridges
Have one or more missing teeth? A dental bridge can restore the functionality and appearance of your smile. Our teeth were designed to work together; a missing tooth can not only cause appearance issues but also disrupt chewing and speaking ability. When teeth are missing, it can also lead to bone loss, and increase the risk of tooth loss and even gum disease.
A dental bridge, however, can prevent additional damage and bone loss. Healthy, natural adjacent teeth or dental implants are necessary to attach a bridge. Crowns will be placed to anchor the dental bridge that will be attached to replace the missing tooth or teeth.
