What is a Dental Bridge?

A dental bridge is a common solution for filling the gap left by one or more missing teeth. Think of it like a "bridge" that connects your remaining teeth on either side of the gap.

​

Here’s how it works: a crown is placed on the adjacent teeth to support the bridge, which holds one or more artificial teeth in place. This not only restores your smile but also helps maintain your facial structure, improves your ability to chew, and prevents your remaining teeth from shifting out of position.

​

The procedure is usually done in a couple of visits, and the results can last for many years with proper care. If you're missing teeth, a bridge might be a great option to consider for restoring your smile and function!
