Dental Bridges at Auburn Dental Center

Bridging the gap to a complete and confident smile.

What are Dental Bridges?

Dental bridges are restorative solutions designed to replace one or more missing teeth. They consist of a series of crowns, where the middle ones replace the missing teeth and the ones on the ends, called abutments, anchor onto the neighboring teeth.

• Aesthetic Restoration: Fill the gaps in your smile for a seamless look.
• Functionality: Restore your ability to chew and speak properly.
• Prevent Misalignment: Avoid shifting of neighboring teeth due to empty spaces.
• Maintain Facial Structure: Prevent facial sagging that can occur with missing teeth.
  

The procedure begins with preparing the abutment teeth, followed by taking impressions to ensure a precise fit. The custom bridge is then crafted in a dental lab. Once ready, Dr. Herr will cement the bridge in place, ensuring comfort and a natural appearance.

Types of Dental Bridges:

There are various types of dental bridges, including traditional, cantilever, and Maryland bonded bridges. Dr. Herr will discuss the best option tailored to your needs during your consultation.

With proper care, dental bridges can last many years. Regular brushing, flossing, and dental check-ups, along with avoiding hard foods, will ensure the longevity of your bridge. For any concerns or adjustments, reach out to us.
