Bridges

Seamlessly Restore Your Smile

Closing the Gap With Precision

A missing tooth does more than affect your smile — it disrupts the balance of your entire bite. Neighboring teeth drift toward the gap, opposing teeth super-erupt, and the increased load on remaining teeth accelerates wear. A dental bridge addresses all of this by permanently anchoring a natural-looking replacement tooth between two stable crowns.

Unlike removable partial dentures, a bridge is fixed in place — it looks, feels, and functions like your natural dentition. For patients who are not candidates for implants or who prefer a shorter treatment timeline, a well-crafted bridge is an excellent long-term restoration.

What to Expect

Bridge treatment typically requires two appointments. During the first visit, Dr. Paulina Labuz prepares the abutment teeth on either side of the gap — gently reshaping them to accommodate the anchor crowns — and takes precise impressions that guide the fabrication of your custom bridge.

A temporary bridge protects the prepared teeth while your permanent restoration is crafted in the lab. At the second visit, the bridge is adjusted for fit and bite, then permanently cemented in place. The result is a seamless, stable tooth replacement that blends naturally with the surrounding teeth.
