Dental bridges are a restorative dental solution designed to replace missing teeth and restore the function and appearance of your smile. They typically consist of a bridge, abutments, and pontic The bridge spans the gap created by the missing teeth, while the abutments are anchored to the adjacent teeth. The pontic is the artificial teeth that fill in the gap in the smile.
We offer several types of dental bridges, including:
- Traditional Bridges: These are the most common type of dental bridge, consisting of a bridge supported by crowns on the adjacent teeth.
- Maryland Bridges: A less invasive option that uses metal bands bonded to the back of the adjacent teeth.
- Cantilever Bridges: Used when there is a missing tooth at the end of a dental arch, these bridges are supported by a crown on the adjacent tooth.
- Implant-Supported Bridges: A more permanent solution that involves placing dental implants into the jawbone to support the bridge.
