Dental Bridges In Salt Lake City, UT
How Can I Replace Missing Teeth With Dental Bridges?
A dental bridge is a custom-made prosthetic device that spans the gap from missing teeth. It consists of artificial teeth, known as pontics, anchored in place by dental crowns attached to the adjacent healthy teeth.
Dental bridges offer a reliable solution for restoring your smile if you're missing one or more teeth. By replacing missing teeth with dental bridges, you can improve your smile's aesthetics and functionality. At Salt Lake Dental, we understand the importance of a healthy, complete smile and are committed to delivering personalized care to meet your unique dental needs.

What To Expect At Your Dental Bridge Consultation In Salt Lake City
Thorough Examination
Our dentist will examine your teeth, gums, and jaw to assess the condition of your oral health. X-rays or digital scans may be taken to aid in the evaluation process.
Treatment Planning
Our dentist will develop a customized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs based on the examination results. We will explain the dental bridge options and help you choose the most suitable one.
Preparatory Procedures
If you proceed with a dental bridge, our dentist may need to prepare the adjacent teeth by removing a small amount of enamel. This ensures a proper fit for the dental crowns supporting the bridge.
Impression Taking
We will take impressions of your teeth to create a precise model for the dental bridge fabrication. These impressions guide crafting a bridge that fits comfortably and blends seamlessly with your natural teeth.
Temporary Bridge Placement
While your custom dental bridge is being created in a dental laboratory, a temporary bridge will protect the prepared teeth and maintain your smile's appearance.
Dental Bridge Options
Traditional Fixed Bridge
This is the most common type of dental bridge, consisting of pontics (artificial teeth) held in place by dental crowns on the adjacent healthy teeth.
