Custom-made bridges for natural restoration

Missing teeth can significantly impact your smile, speech, and dietary choices. Our MD & Washington DC dental bridges are designed to bridge this gap! 

With a dental bridge, we replace missing teeth with artificial ones, using the surrounding teeth as support. This restores your smile and preserves the natural function of your teeth and jaw.

At Tidewater Dental, we’re committed to quality. We want to ensure your dental bridges look natural and last for years. Request an appointment today to restore your smile!

Our dentists might recommend a dental bridge to

  • Replace one or more missing teeth
  • Maintain the shape of your face
  • Distribute the forces in your bite properly by replacing missing teeth
  • Prevent remaining teeth from drifting out of position
  • Restore your smile and your ability to chew and speak properly

Are you an ideal candidate for dental bridges?

Determining if you’re a good fit for dental bridges involves a few key factors:

  • Missing teeth: Ideal for those missing one or several teeth.
  • Healthy adjacent teeth: The teeth next to the gap must be strong, as they’ll support the bridge.
  • Good oral health: Essential for the success of the bridge, meaning no active gum disease or severe tooth decay.
  • Oral hygiene commitment: You must be willing to maintain excellent oral hygiene, including special care for your bridge.

If you’re looking for a durable and effective way to replace missing teeth, a bridge could be right for you. Visit us to see if a dental bridge is the best option for restoring your smile and oral health.

What to expect

Here’s a brief overview of the dental bridge process:

  1. We start with x-rays and an oral exam to assess your suitability for a dental bridge.
  2. We’ll discuss the best type of bridge for you, considering your oral health and aesthetic goals.
  3. Adjacent teeth are prepared for the bridge. Impressions are taken for your custom bridge.
  4. While your permanent bridge is made, a temporary one may be placed.
  5. We’ll fit your bridge, adjust it for comfort and function, and then cement it permanently.
  6. You’ll receive guidelines on caring for your new bridge to ensure its longevity.

Expect a smooth and informed journey to restoring your smile with Tidewater Dental.

Frequently asked questions about dental bridges

MD DC faq about dental bridges tidewater dental
How long do dental bridges last?

With proper care, dental bridges can last 5-15 years, or even longer. The lifespan depends on oral hygiene practices and the wear and tear the bridge is exposed to.

How do I care for my dental bridge?

Care for a dental bridge involves regular brushing and flossing, using a floss threader to clean under the bridge, and regular dental check-ups and cleanings. Good oral hygiene practices will help extend the life of your bridge.

Can dental bridges improve my speech?

Yes, replacing missing teeth with a dental bridge can improve speech problems that were caused by gaps in your bite, helping you speak more clearly and confidently.

Are dental bridges noticeable?

Dental bridges are designed to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth. They are custom-made to match the color, shape, and size of your surrounding teeth, making them virtually invisible.

How soon can I eat after getting a dental bridge?

You can eat as soon as the anesthesia wears off, but it’s recommended to start with soft foods and gradually return to your normal diet. Avoid hard and sticky foods that could damage the bridge.

Will I need a dental bridge if I only have one missing tooth?

Yes, a dental bridge is a viable option for replacing a single missing tooth and can prevent surrounding teeth from shifting, which could disrupt your bite and lead to other dental issues.
