Tooth Bridges
Missing teeth can affect more than just your appearance; they can impact your bite, speech, and confidence. We offer expertly crafted dental bridges to fill the gaps and restore your smile. Whether you’re missing one tooth or several, our customized tooth bridge solutions are built for comfort, function, and durability.
What is a Tooth Bridge?
A tooth bridge is a fixed dental restoration designed to replace one or more missing teeth. It “bridges” the gap between two healthy teeth or dental implants. The artificial tooth (or teeth) in the middle, called a pontic, is held in place by crowns attached to the neighboring teeth.
We offer various types of dental bridges, including traditional bridges, cantilever bridges, Maryland bonded bridges, and implant-supported options.
Benefits of Dental Bridges

Maintains alignment and prevents bite problems.
Signs You Might Need a Dental Bridge
- Missing one or more teeth: A bridge may be recommended to restore both function and aesthetics.
- Difficulty speaking or eating: Gaps from missing teeth are interfering with daily activities.
- Shifting of surrounding teeth: Nearby teeth are moving into empty spaces, creating misalignment.
- Low self-confidence due to gaps: You’re hesitant to smile or speak because of visible tooth loss.
- Seeking a fixed solution over dentures: You prefer a permanent alternative that doesn’t require removal.
If these signs sound familiar, a dental bridge may be the ideal solution. Schedule a consultation with our team today.
