What Is a Dental Bridge?

A dental bridge is a fixed, non-removable restoration used to replace one or more missing teeth. The bridge consists of a custom-crafted replacement tooth, or teeth, anchored in place by the healthy teeth or dental implants on either side of the gap.

Unlike removable dentures, a dental bridge stays permanently in place, allowing you to bite, chew, and speak with the same confidence and function as your natural teeth, without the worry of slipping, shifting, or daily removal.

1

Comprehensive Evaluation

Dr. Salavati assesses your oral health, evaluates the condition of the teeth or implants that will support your bridge, and discusses the most appropriate bridge solution for your specific case.

2

Preparation of Anchor Teeth

If your bridge will be supported by natural teeth, those teeth are carefully prepared, similar to preparation for a dental crown, to create the precise space needed for a secure, natural-looking fit.

3

Digital Impressions

Precise impressions are taken to ensure your custom bridge fits comfortably and blends seamlessly with the rest of your smile.

4

Temporary Bridge Placement

While your permanent bridge is being crafted, a temporary bridge is placed to protect your prepared teeth and maintain normal function in the meantime.

5

Custom Bridge Fabrication

Your permanent bridge is meticulously crafted to match the shade, shape, and translucency of your natural teeth, using high-quality, biocompatible materials.

6

Final Placement & Bite Adjustment

Once your custom bridge is ready, it is securely bonded into place, and Dr. Salavati ensures it fits comfortably within your bite, completing your treatment with a result that looks and feels completely natural.

Types of Dental Bridges We Offer

  • Traditional Bridges - The most common type, anchored by dental crowns placed on the natural teeth adjacent to the gap, with the replacement tooth suspended between them.
  • Implant-Supported Bridges - For patients missing multiple teeth, an implant-supported bridge is anchored directly to dental implants rather than natural teeth, offering exceptional stability without placing any pressure on surrounding healthy teeth.
  • Cantilever Bridges - Used in select cases where there is only one adjacent tooth available to anchor the bridge, rather than teeth on both sides of the gap.
Dr. Salavati will recommend the most appropriate type of bridge for your specific case during your consultation, based on the number of missing teeth, the health of your surrounding teeth, and your long-term oral health goals.
