Dental Bridges

Our team offer dental bridges in Atlanta, GA, at Peachtree Dunwoody Dental Group for patients who have multiple missing teeth. As a less expensive alternative to dental implants, dental bridges help restore your teeth for a fantastic new smile! Find out more information about this treatment by calling our office at (770) 395-7057 and scheduling a consultation with our dentist.

If you are missing a single tooth or multiple teeth in a row, we may recommend a dental bridge to restore your smile. A bridge is a fixed dental restoration, meaning it is non-removable. The dental bridge is anchored in place through the use of two dental crowns, which are custom made to fit your smile and are placed on the teeth or dental implants next to the space left by the missing tooth. These crowns hold the artificial tooth in place to restore your smile, ensuring that your restoration will not easily shift or come loose. It typically requires only two visits to our practice to complete a dental bridge. Dental bridges are designed to last for many years and to restore the function, beauty, and health of your smile.

Our dentist may recommend a dental bridge to improve your smile by:

  • Restoring your ability to speak, eat and chew normally
  • Alleviating excess stress on the bite
  • Improving the shape and volume of your face
  • Replacing an unwanted removable partial denture
  • Preventing the remaining natural teeth from moving out of position
  • Enhancing the appearance of your smile

We will help you determine whether a custom dental bridge is a right choice for restoring your smile after tooth loss. For more information, please call or visit us today.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I take care of my bridge?

Taking care of your dental bridge is as easy and simple as taking care of your natural teeth. Make sure to brush after each meal and floss daily to prevent debris and plaque from building up.

Scheduling regular check-ups and cleanings with our team every six months will help maintain healthy teeth and gums.

How long do bridges last?

Typically, a dental bridge can last anywhere from eight to 15 years with proper oral hygiene and care. This means brushing your teeth at least twice a day and flossing regularly.

We recommend that you also schedule bi-annual dental exams and professional cleanings to ensure your restoration will last for many years.

What is a dental bridge?

A dental bridge is used to fill in gaps between your teeth to improve the look, feel, and function of your natural smile. It uses a pontic, also referred to as the replacement tooth in a dental bridge.

our team uses durable porcelain dental crowns or implants to secure the bridge to the teeth at the end of each gap. This incredible restoration completes your smile and gives you something to feel confident about.
