A dental bridge is a fixed restoration used to replace one or more missing teeth by anchoring an artificial tooth between two healthy teeth or dental implants. The supporting teeth, known as abutments, hold the bridge securely in place, restoring both function and appearance. Dental bridges are custom-made to blend naturally with your existing teeth, helping to restore your smile.
This treatment helps improve chewing ability, speech, and overall oral health while preventing nearby teeth from shifting into the gap. Dental bridges are a reliable and long-lasting solution for missing teeth, offering both aesthetic and functional benefits when properly maintained with good oral hygiene and regular dental visits.
