Bridge the Gap in Your Smile with Our Dental Bridges Service
Reclaim Your Smile’s Beauty and Functionality with Custom Dental Bridges
Dr. Ryan D. Sparks is committed to restoring smiles and enhancing oral health through comprehensive dental solutions, including dental bridges. Our skilled dental team specializes in designing and fitting high-quality dental bridges that seamlessly blend with your natural teeth, restoring the beauty and functionality of your smile.
What Are Dental Bridges?
Dental bridges are custom-made dental appliances that bridge the gap created by one or more missing teeth. A typical bridge consists of two or more crowns for the teeth on either side of the gap and a false tooth or teeth in between. These artificial teeth can be made from gold, alloys, porcelain or a combination of these materials, and are anchored onto neighboring teeth or implants. Dental bridges not only restore your smile but also maintain the shape of your face, prevent remaining teeth from shifting and distribute the forces in your bite properly by replacing missing teeth.
Why Opt for Dental Bridges?
Choosing dental bridges offers numerous benefits, including:
- Restoring Your Smile: Dental bridges fill the gaps in your smile, enhancing your appearance and confidence.
- Maintaining Facial Shape: By preventing the remaining teeth from shifting, bridges help preserve the natural shape of your face.
- Improving Chewing and Speaking: Bridges help restore the ability to chew and speak properly by replacing missing teeth.
- Preventing Misalignments: By filling gaps, dental bridges prevent other teeth from moving out of position, reducing the risk of bite problems and jaw pain.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) About Dental Bridges
How long does it take to get dental bridges?
The process usually requires two or more visits to complete, spanning a few weeks. The exact timeline can vary based on your specific case and the type of bridge.

While bridges are a long-term solution, they may need replacement or repair over time. With proper care, dental bridges can last five to 15 years, or even longer.

Caring for a bridge is similar to caring for your natural teeth: brush twice a day, floss daily (using special flossers designed for bridges) and visit your dentist regularly for checkups and cleanings.

Most people missing one or more teeth can be candidates for dental bridges. Our dentist will assess your situation, including the health of your remaining teeth and gums, to determine if a bridge is suitable for you.
