The basics

What is a dental bridge?

A bridge closes the gap left by a missing tooth. A replacement tooth is held in place by crowns on the neighboring teeth, or by dental implants.

Bridges restore your ability to chew and speak clearly and keep your remaining teeth from drifting into the gap.

They’re custom-made and shade-matched, so the replacement blends naturally with your smile.

Good to know

Frequently asked

How long do dental bridges last?

With good care, bridges commonly last 10–15 years or longer.

Bridge or implant — which is better?

A bridge is often faster and less costly and uses neighboring teeth for support; an implant stands on its own and preserves jawbone. We’ll help you weigh both.

How do I clean under a bridge?

We’ll show you how to clean beneath the replacement tooth with floss threaders or special brushes to keep it healthy.

Does insurance cover bridges?

Many plans cover part of the cost. We’ll verify your benefits and give you an estimate first.

Is getting a bridge uncomfortable?

The teeth are numbed during treatment, so it’s comfortable. Some brief sensitivity afterward is normal.

Which offices offer bridges?

All four Village Dental offices place dental bridges.
