Missing teeth can affect not only your appearance but also your ability to chew, speak, and maintain proper oral health. At Stamford Green Dental, we offer custom-designed dental bridges to restore the look and function of your smile. Our high-quality, natural-looking bridges help fill gaps, improve your bite, and prevent surrounding teeth from shifting.
A dental bridge is a fixed restoration used to replace one or more missing teeth. It consists of artificial teeth (pontics) held in place by crowns placed on adjacent healthy teeth or dental implants. Bridges provide a strong, long-lasting solution for missing teeth, giving you a confident, complete smile.
✅ Restores your natural smile and facial structure
✅ Improves chewing and speaking ability

✅ Provides a long-lasting, durable solution
✅ Offers a fixed, non-removable alternative to dentures
🔹 Traditional Bridges – The most common type, using crowns on adjacent teeth to support the artificial tooth.
🔹 Implant-Supported Bridges – A highly stable option where dental implants hold the bridge in place, eliminating the need for support from natural teeth.
🔹 Cantilever Bridges – Used when only one adjacent tooth is available for support.
🔹 Maryland Bonded Bridges – A conservative option that uses a metal or porcelain framework bonded to the back of the supporting teeth.
Our experienced dental team will assess your oral health and discuss the best bridge option for your specific needs.
Getting a dental bridge typically requires two visits:
1️⃣ Initial Consultation & Tooth Preparation – We prepare the adjacent teeth by reshaping them for crowns (if needed) and take digital impressions for precise customization.
2️⃣ Temporary Bridge Placement – A temporary bridge is placed to protect your gums and teeth while your permanent bridge is crafted.
3️⃣ Custom Bridge Fitting – Once your bridge is ready, we carefully fit and adjust it to ensure comfort and a natural look.
4️⃣ Final Placement & Bonding – Your bridge is permanently secured, restoring function and aesthetics to your smile.
