Dental BridgesinCupertino
A dental bridge is an effective solution for replacing one or multiple missing teeth, restoring your smile's appearance and function. We offer both traditional bridges supported by crowns on your natural teeth and implant-supported bridges for enhanced stability.
What is a Dental Bridge?
A dental bridge is a common way to replace one or multiple missing teeth and helps to bridge the gap and restore your smile. Bridges can be supported by crowns placed over your natural teeth on either side of the artificial teeth or can be implant-supported where two implants are placed on either side of the bridge. These teeth act as anchors and allow the bridge to attach securely. Tooth bridges are a great solution because they do not slip around like other appliances.

Missing teeth can cause problems eating or speaking. The empty space in your mouth will eventually allow your other teeth to move out of place, and this can affect the structure and function of your smile. Tooth bridges are a great solution for patients that have difficulty chewing, issues with bite, and pain in the jaw around the missing teeth. Bridges can help you feel less self-conscious when around others and restore your smile. They provide support to keep teeth in place and look natural in the mouth. Bridges are a great way alternative to other solutions and are a common choice for patients seeking to restore their smile.
Yes, dental bridges are designed to restore your ability to eat and speak normally. However, we recommend avoiding extremely hard or sticky foods to protect your bridge and natural teeth.
Choosing the best restorative option can be stressful, and our team at PCCD is here to support you every step of the way. When choosing the best option our team will take a detailed look at your smile, and depending on the severity and correction needed, can help you choose what option is best. Many patients look at both dental bridges and implants as an option for tooth replacement. Both are great solutions and our doctors can help you decide if you are a candidate.
Dental Bridge
Dental bridges are good for patients that do not want invasive surgery but want to restore their smile. Bridges are typically covered by insurance and cost less compared to other options. The procedure is quicker and the bridge can be anchored by crowns placed on your natural teeth, or by dental implants on either side of the bridge. Bridges can be fixed and do not slip out like other options.
Dental Implants
Dental implants are great for patients looking for a more permanent solution. The implant is placed in the jaw and is anchored similar to a natural tooth root. The procedure is more invasive and does require healing time while the implants fuse to the jaw bone. Implants can last 15 years or more and are the longest-lasting solution available. Dental implants have a very high success rate, function like natural teeth, and restore strength.
Maintain good oral hygiene by brushing twice daily and flossing regularly, paying special attention to cleaning under and around the bridge. Use a floss threader or interdental brush to clean between the bridge and gums.
