Bridges

Missing teeth can make eating, speaking, and smiling a challenge, but at Stillwater Dental Associates, we offer custom dental bridges to restore your smile’s appearance and function. A bridge is a reliable, natural-looking solution for replacing one or more missing teeth and can give you back the confidence to enjoy life to the fullest.

What Is a Dental Bridge?

A dental bridge is a fixed restoration that replaces one or more missing teeth by “bridging” the gap between healthy teeth. It consists of one or more artificial teeth, known as pontics, anchored securely in place by crowns on the adjacent natural teeth or dental implants.

Benefits of Dental Bridges

  • Restore Your Smile: Fill the gaps left by missing teeth for a complete, natural-looking smile.
  • Improve Function: Regain the ability to chew and speak with ease.
  • Prevent Shifting: A bridge helps keep your remaining teeth from shifting out of place.
  • Durable Solution: With proper care, bridges provide a long-lasting and reliable restoration.

Types of Bridges

We offer a variety of dental bridge options to meet your specific needs:

  • Traditional Bridges: Anchored by dental crowns on the teeth next to the gap.
  • Implant-Supported Bridges: Secured to dental implants for added strength and stability.
  • Cantilever Bridges: Used when there’s only one adjacent tooth available to support the bridge.

The Dental Bridge Process

  1. Consultation & Evaluation: We’ll examine your smile, discuss your options, and determine the best type of bridge for you.
  2. Tooth Preparation: The supporting teeth are reshaped, and impressions are taken to create your custom bridge.
  3. Temporary Bridge: While your permanent bridge is being crafted, a temporary bridge protects the area.
  4. Final Placement: Once ready, your custom bridge is securely placed and adjusted for comfort and a perfect fit.

Restore Your Smile with Confidence

At Stillwater Dental Associates, we’re committed to helping you achieve a healthy, functional, and beautiful smile. Dental bridges provide a dependable solution for replacing missing teeth and restoring your quality of life.
