Dental Bridges

Dental implants are a transformative solution for individuals seeking to replace missing teeth with a durable, natural-looking alternative. At Huntington Beach Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery, we specialize in providing high-quality dental implant treatments tailored to meet each patient’s unique needs. From the initial consultation to the final restoration, our goal is to restore your smile and improve your overall oral health.

Replacing missing teeth is essential for maintaining proper bite alignment, speech, and overall oral health. A dental bridge is one of the most reliable and natural-looking solutions to restore your smile.

Implant-Supported Bridges

At CITIDental West Roxbury, we offer both traditional bridges and implant-supported bridges, each customized to meet individual needs. A traditional bridge uses crowns placed on the teeth adjacent to the gap, while an implant-supported bridge is anchored by titanium implants that act as artificial roots within the jawbone.

Bone Loss Prevention, Stability

Implant bridges provide several key advantages. They help prevent bone loss, maintain the natural spacing of your teeth, and offer greater stability when chewing. Since implants integrate with your bone, they also eliminate the need to prepare or reshape neighboring healthy teeth.

High-Quality Materials

We use high-quality ceramic and porcelain materials to ensure your bridge blends seamlessly with your smile. During your consultation, we’ll evaluate the health of your gums, remaining teeth, and bone structure to determine which type of bridge will provide the best long-term results.

Whether you are missing one tooth or several, our goal is to restore your bite, your comfort, and your confidence with a restoration that looks as natural as it feels.

Dental Bridges FAQ

What is a dental bridge?

A dental bridge replaces one or more missing teeth by anchoring an artificial tooth (or teeth) between two crowns placed on the adjacent natural teeth or dental implants. It restores both function and appearance while preventing teeth from shifting out of alignment.

What types of dental bridges are available?

At CITIDental West Roxbury, we offer traditional bridges that rely on natural teeth for support, as well as implant-supported bridges that attach to titanium implants for added stability and bone preservation.

How long does a bridge last?

Only a very small amount of enamel is removed to make space for the veneer. This ensures a secure fit and natural appearance. The procedure is minimally invasive, and once bonded, veneers actually help protect the underlying tooth structure.

Is getting a bridge painful?

The process is typically comfortable. Local anesthesia is used during any tooth preparation, and temporary restorations are provided while your custom bridge is being crafted. Most patients return to normal eating and speaking shortly after placement.

What are the benefits of an implant-supported bridge?

Implant bridges do not rely on reshaping neighboring teeth for support. They preserve bone, provide strong bite function, and can replace multiple missing teeth without affecting healthy ones.
