What Is a Dental Bridge?
A dental bridge is a custom restoration used to replace one or more missing teeth in a row. The bridge is anchored to the neighboring natural teeth or dental implants, literally “bridging” the gap where your missing tooth once was.
Our bridges are carefully designed to blend seamlessly with your natural smile, restore function, and protect your long-term oral health.
Why Replace a Missing Tooth?
When a tooth is lost, the surrounding teeth can shift out of alignment—causing bite problems, gum issues, and even bone loss over time.
Replacing the missing tooth not only improves your smile but also helps to:
- Maintain proper bite alignment
- Prevent shifting or crowding of other teeth
- Preserve facial structure and jawbone health
- Restore natural chewing and speaking ability
- Enhance your smile’s overall appearance
Our Approach to Creating Beautiful, Long-Lasting Bridges
At Darien Dental, we combine advanced dental technology with an artistic touch to deliver bridges that are both highly aesthetic and incredibly durable.
Using digital imaging, precise color matching, and premium ceramic materials, we ensure your new bridge looks and feels like a natural part of your smile.
Each bridge is custom-crafted to:
- Match your tooth color and shape perfectly
- Fit comfortably for long-term wear
- Restore strength, stability, and beauty to your bite
The Dental Bridge Process
- Consultation & Digital Scan
We begin with a thorough exam and digital impressions to plan your restoration precisely—no messy molds required. - Tooth Preparation
The teeth on either side of the gap are gently reshaped to support your bridge. - Custom Design & Fabrication
Your bridge is crafted by our trusted dental lab using lifelike, tooth-colored materials designed to match your natural teeth. - Placement & Final Polish
Once ready, your bridge is securely bonded into place, adjusted for comfort, and polished for a flawless finish.
The result: a complete, confident smile that looks as natural as it feels.
