What Are Dental Bridges?

Dental bridges are custom restorations designed to bridge the gap between one or more missing teeth. Bridges are made up of natural-looking prosthetic teeth called pontics which rely on your adjacent teeth on each side to support your personalized restoration. Not only will bridges rejuvenate your smile, but they also increase the functionality of your teeth and protects the bone structure of your face. 

Dr. Ye may recommend dental bridges for the following dental issues:

  • Cracked or damaged teeth
  • Missing teeth
  • Support for a tooth with a large filling

The Benefits of Dental Bridges

Dental bridges offer more than just a cosmetic solution; they play a vital role in restoring oral function, preventing future dental issues, and enhancing overall quality of life. At Boston Post Dental & Implants, your trusted dentist in Sudbury MA, we take a personalized approach to ensure your dental bridge looks natural, feels comfortable, and supports long-term oral health.

One of the greatest advantages of dental bridges is their ability to replace missing teeth efficiently and effectively. In most cases, the entire process can be completed in just two visits to our Sudbury office. The procedure is minimally invasive, making it a comfortable solution for many patients. With proper care, dental bridges can last 10 to 15 years, or even longer.

Functionally, dental bridges restore your ability to chew and speak clearly, which can be affected by tooth loss. They also help distribute your bite evenly across your remaining teeth, reducing stress on your jaw and other teeth. Importantly, a bridge prevents neighboring teeth from shifting out of place, helping to preserve alignment and prevent bite issues.

While bridges do not anchor directly into the jawbone like dental implants, they still play a role in maintaining facial structure. By filling in gaps, they help support the natural shape of your face and prevent the sunken appearance that can occur when teeth are missing.

If you’re missing one or more teeth and looking for a reliable, long-lasting solution, dental bridges could be the perfect option. Contact our team today to schedule a consultation with a skilled dentist in Sudbury MA and find out if a bridge is right for you. We’re here to restore both your smile and your confidence.

Our Dental Bridge Process

You’ll receive your dental bridge in as little as two appointments to our Sudbury office. Dr. Ye and our dental team will be here for you every step of the way to ensure you’ll be satisfied with the results. 

Your initial visit with Dr. Ye will include a full mouth examination and deep cleaning to prepare you for the dental bridge procedure. In addition to a deep cleaning, Dr. Ye will gently remove a small portion of the enamel. We’ll then take detailed impressions of your teeth to create your customized restoration.

Once your dental bridge is ready, you’ll return to our Sudbury office for one last appointment. Dr. Ye will check to make sure the fit and appearance of your bridge are exactly what you want before fixing it into place. After it’s secured, you’ll leave our office with newfound confidence in your smile.
