What is a Dental Bridge?

A dental bridge fills the space left by missing teeth. It typically consists of two crowns on either side of the gap, with one or more artificial teeth (pontics) in between. The crowns are placed over adjacent natural teeth to anchor the bridge in place.

For an alternative approach, dental implants can be used to support the bridge. Implants are small titanium posts surgically placed into the jawbone, providing a secure foundation for the restoration. This method eliminates the need to alter adjacent healthy teeth for crown placement.

Although bridges can be made using metal or porcelain fused to metal, we prefer all-porcelain bridges for their durability and natural look. Modern dental porcelain blends seamlessly with your natural teeth, resulting in a beautiful, fully functional smile.

Dr. Weiss will perform a full assessment during your consultation and help you choose the right support method – crowns or implants-based on your oral health and goals.

Are You Missing a Tooth?

Missing teeth can make it difficult to chew, eat, speak clearly, and smile with confidence. If you’re missing one or more teeth, we can help restore both the function and appearance of your smile with a custom dental bridge.

Combining Aesthetics with Function

If crowns are used to support the bridge, the procedure usually takes two appointments:

  • Appointment 1: The adjacent teeth are prepared for crowns, and impressions are taken to craft your custom bridge. A temporary bridge may be placed at this time.
  • Appointment 2: Your permanent bridge is bonded into place for a secure, comfortable fit.

If you opt for an implant-supported bridge, the process is longer but more permanent. It includes:

  • Two surgical procedures to place the implants, spaced four to six months apart for healing.
  • Impressions and fabrication of your custom bridge once the implants have fully integrated.
Although this approach takes more time, implants are widely considered the most reliable long-term solution, offering support comparable to natural tooth roots. With proper care, implant-supported bridges can last a lifetime.
