Restore Your Smile With a Custom Fit
Missing teeth can impact how you speak, eat, and smile—but dental bridges provide a dependable solution. A bridge fills the gap left by missing teeth, restoring your bite, improving your smile, and preventing nearby teeth from shifting out of place.
Each dental bridge is custom-made to match the shape and color of your natural teeth, ensuring a comfortable fit and natural appearance. Whether you're replacing one tooth or several, a bridge can help you regain both function and confidence in your everyday life.
How Dental Bridges Work
A dental bridge consists of one or more artificial teeth—called pontics—that are secured in place using the adjacent natural teeth or dental implants. The result is a secure, natural-feeling restoration that makes speaking and eating easier while also preserving the alignment of your remaining teeth.
Types of Dental Bridges
Your dentist will recommend the best type of bridge based on your specific needs:
Traditional Bridge
Anchored by crowns placed on the healthy teeth on either side of the gap, this is the most common type. It offers strong, durable support.
Cantilever Bridge
Used when only one natural tooth is next to the missing space. The pontic is supported by a single anchor tooth.
Maryland Bridge
This bridge uses a metal or porcelain framework bonded to the back of neighboring teeth. It requires minimal alteration to the surrounding teeth.
Take the First Step Toward a Complete Smile
Dental bridges are a dependable, long-lasting way to replace missing teeth and protect your overall oral health. If you’re ready to restore your smile, schedule a consultation with your dentist to find the bridge option that’s right for you.
