Dental bridges are fixed, or permanent, restorations that replace one or more missing teeth. Generally, bridges are made of two crowns with an artificial tooth fused in between. Bridges can also replace larger numbers of teeth when supported by dental implants.
Bridges are an effective and beautiful treatment that can provide excellent, durable results while helping to improve speaking, chewing, and a variety of other problems associated with missing teeth.
For smaller bridges, we are able to fabricate dental bridges right here in our office the same day. For such procedures, we use CEREC® technology. CEREC® allows us to take a 3D image of the restoration area, digitally create a perfect fitting replacement, then output the design to a milling machine for your custom bridge.
