Restore Your Smile with Dental Bridges in Naples

Missing teeth can impact your confidence and ability to chew properly. At Aesthetic Dentistry at Bayfront in Naples, we offer dental bridges to replace one or more missing teeth, helping you regain your smile and restore proper function. Our custom lab-made bridges provide a durable and natural-looking solution for tooth replacement.

What Are Dental Bridges?

A dental bridge is a fixed dental restoration used to replace one or more missing teeth. The bridge is anchored by crowns placed on the adjacent teeth (known as abutment teeth) and holds the artificial teeth (pontics) in place. Bridges can be made from various materials, including porcelain, ceramic, and metal, and are designed to match the color and appearance of your natural teeth. Dental bridges not only restore the appearance of your smile but also improve your ability to chew and speak properly. They help maintain the shape of your face and prevent remaining teeth from shifting out of position.

What is the Process of a Dental Bridge Treatment?

The process of getting a dental bridge typically requires two appointments. After teeth are shaped, digital 3D scans of your teeth are taken and sent to a dental lab, where your custom bridge is created. A temporary bridge is placed to protect your teeth in the meantime. Once the permanent bridge is ready, you’ll return for the second appointment, we will remove the temporary bridge and secure the permanent one in place. The result is a stable and natural-looking replacement for your missing teeth.
