Often used as a restorative treatment to replace one or more missing teeth, dental bridges can transform a patient’s smile and restore confidence. The process begins with preparing the abutment teeth and removing a small part of the enamel to create space for the bridge. After the teeth are prepared, we take impressions and send them to our in-house lab, where a world-class specialist custom-crafts your bridge. After the bridge is made, it is fitted and adjusted to ensure it looks and feels natural. Patients can use a single bridge to replace one or several missing teeth and multiple different varieties of bridges are available.
Traditional dental bridges are the most common type of bridge used to replace missing teeth. They are made of a false tooth that is anchored in place by dental crowns on the adjacent teeth. Traditional bridges are highly durable and provide excellent chewing function and aesthetics, making them a reliable solution for restoring one or more missing teeth.
This type of bridge is typically used when there is only one adjacent tooth available to support the restoration. It is a practical option for replacing teeth in areas that are not subject to heavy biting forces, like the front teeth.
This option is one of the most conservative for bridge repair. Also known as resin-bonded bridges, Maryland bridges use a metal or porcelain framework that is bonded to the backs of the adjacent teeth so no abutment or alteration to adjacent teeth is needed.
Instead of being supported by crowns on adjacent teeth, this type of bridge is anchored to dental implants that are surgically placed into the jawbone. This approach preserves the health of the surrounding teeth and helps maintain bone density in the jaw, preventing bone loss that often occurs after tooth loss.
Missing or damaged teeth can cause significant aesthetic concerns as well as affect the ability to chew and speak properly. With a dental bridge, patients can see a fully restored smile along with renewed functionality. Our Beverly Hills, CA dental bridge patients see great benefits like:
