A bridge is a fixed dental restoration, meaning it is non-removable. It is used to “bridge the gap” in your smile if you are missing one tooth or several teeth in a row. The bridge is anchored in place through the use of two crowns. These crowns hold the artificial tooth/teeth in place to restore your smile, ensuring that your restoration will not shift or come loose. Dental bridges help to improve not only your smile, but it restores your ability to speak, eat, and chew as normal. It also improves the shape and volume of your face. Our dentist, Dr. Daniel Wood, may recommend a bridge to replace an unwanted removable partial denture. We can help you determine whether a custom dental bridge is the right choice for you.
