Repairing Missing Teeth with Dental Bridges

January 13th, 2012

Our smile is one of our most prominent features. People with missing teeth often avoid smiling out of insecurity in revealing the imperfections in their smile. Cosmetic dentistry has improved greatly in recent years to allow skilled dentists to repair missing teeth with a variety of procedures. One of the most common procedures is Dental Bridges.

A dental bridge is a tooth facsimile that is fused between two porcelain crowns to fill in the space where a tooth was or should be. The teeth on either side of the space is covered with a crown to hold the false tooth in place creating a dental bridge.  This procedure can be used to replace one or more missing teeth.

There are many options a patient might consider to fill the space left by a missing tooth. A consultation with a cosmetic dentist is the first step in determining if a dental bridge is right for you.
