Dental Bridges

A dental bridge can span the gap left by one or more missing teeth and provide stability for the remaining teeth. If injury, decay, or a tooth extraction has left gaps in your smile, we invite you to visit Dr. Paul Vartabedian and receive a custom-made dental bridge in Lakeport, California. Our dentist will sit down with you to discuss your options, preferences, and dental needs to ensure you receive the best possible treatment at an affordable price.

If you are missing one tooth or multiple teeth in a row, we may recommend a dental bridge to restore your smile. A bridge is a fixed dental restoration, meaning it is non-removable. The dental bridge is anchored in place through the use of two dental crowns, which are custom made to fit your smile and are placed on the teeth or dental implants next to the space left by the missing tooth. These crowns hold the artificial tooth in place to restore your smile, ensuring that your restoration will not easily shift or come loose. It typically requires only two visits to our practice to complete the dental bridge. Dental bridges are designed to last for many years and to restore the function, beauty, and health of your smile.

Our doctor may recommend a dental bridge to improve your smile by:

Restoring your ability to speak, eat, and chew as normal
Alleviating excess stress on the bite
Improving the shape and volume of your face
Replacing an unwanted removable partial denture
Preventing the remaining natural teeth from moving out of position
Enhancing the appearance of your smile

We will help you determine whether a custom dental bridge is the right choice for restoring your smile after tooth loss. For more information, please call or visit us today.
