What is a dental bridge?

A dental bridge is a fixed restoration that replaces one or more missing teeth by connecting a custom-made tooth to the healthy teeth or implants next to the space. It’s designed to restore function and help your smile feel complete again. We’ll carefully craft your bridge to match the shape and shade of your natural teeth, so it’ll look and feel like it’s always been there. If you’re missing a tooth and want a long-term option that stays in place, a bridge could be a great fit for you.

The benefits of dental bridges

A complete, confident smile

Bridges fill the gaps in your smile, helping you feel more comfortable and self-assured in social settings.

Better chewing and speech

Replacing missing teeth can make everyday things like eating and talking feel easier and more natural again.

Long-term support for your smile

Bridges help maintain the shape of your face and prevent your remaining teeth from shifting out of place.

The dental bridge process
schedule appointment
1

Begin with a personalized exam

We’ll take a close look at your mouth, gather X-rays if needed, and chat about your goals to see if a bridge is the best solution for you.

2

Prepare the teeth next to the gap

The neighboring teeth will be gently reshaped to support your bridge, and we’ll take precise impressions to guide the custom design.

3

Wear a temporary bridge

You’ll leave your appointment with a temporary bridge in place so you can go about your daily life while the final one is being made.

4

Place your final bridge

When your bridge is ready, we’ll make sure it fits and feels right, and then it’ll be secured in place.

Frequently asked
questions

How long does a dental bridge last?

With good home care and regular checkups, a dental bridge can last many years. We’ll help you take care of it so you get the most out of your investment.

Will it be obvious that I have a bridge?

When done right, it won’t be obvious at all. Your bridge is custom-made to match the shade and shape of your natural teeth, so it’ll blend in beautifully.

What’s the difference between a bridge and an implant?

A bridge uses nearby teeth to support a replacement tooth, while an implant is placed directly into your jawbone, without the need to modify the neighboring teeth. We’ll walk you through both options and help you decide what feels right for your smile.

Had another great experience at the dentist. Dr. David and Laura did a wonderful job on my crown. Also, shout out to Michelle and Sheila, always a pleasure.

Dr. David has been my new dentist for several months now. Today was my second visit in the last few weeks to have a third cavity filled. Both visits were handled in a professional and comforting manner. He provided plenty of information during the procedure so I understood what was going on The whole time. There was very little pain afterwards. I appreciated the fact that while plan A worked, he had a Plan B ready to go. I had been a patient of Dr. Perno for years, I am glad to see the practice is in good hands.
