About This Service
A fixed dental bridge is a permanent restoration that replaces one or more missing teeth by anchoring to the adjacent natural teeth. Unlike removable dentures, bridges are cemented in place and function just like your natural teeth. At Drangsholt Dental, we create custom bridges that restore your smile's appearance, maintain proper bite alignment, and prevent the shifting of surrounding teeth.
How Treatment Works
01
Abutment Preparation
The teeth on either side of the gap are prepared to serve as anchors for the bridge.
02
Impression & Design
Precise measurements are taken to ensure your bridge fits perfectly and matches your natural teeth.
03
Temporary Bridge
A temporary bridge protects your prepared teeth while your custom bridge is being fabricated.
04
Bridge Placement
Your permanent bridge is carefully fitted, adjusted for comfort, and permanently cemented in place.
