Dental Bridges: A Path To A Complete Smile
What Is A Dental Bridge?
Why Choose A Dental Bridge?
Our dental bridges offer multiple benefits:
- Smile with Confidence: Fill the gaps in your smile and boost your self-esteem.
- Improved Chewing and Speaking: A full set of teeth makes everyday activities like eating and talking easier.
- Maintain Facial Structure: Bridges help preserve the natural shape of your face.
- Evenly Distributed Bite: Replacing missing teeth helps in evenly distributing the forces in your bite.
- Protect Your Dental Health: Prevent remaining teeth from shifting and maintain overall oral health.
Frequently Asked Questions about Dental Bridges
What is the Vail Family Dentistry Bridge Procedure?
Our bridge procedure is thorough, ensuring a comfortable and successful outcome:
- First Visit – Preparation: Our dentist prepares the abutment teeth by recontouring and removing a portion of enamel. This is to ensure a perfect fit for the crowns. We then take impressions of your teeth, which serve as the blueprint for your custom bridge, pontic, and crowns.
- Temporary Bridge: A temporary bridge is fitted to protect your teeth and gums while your permanent bridge is crafted in our state-of-the-art dental lab.
- Second Visit – Fitting the Permanent Bridge: We carefully remove the temporary bridge and fit your new permanent bridge. Adjustments are made as needed to ensure a comfortable and precise fit. Depending on individual needs, multiple visits may be necessary to check the fit and bite.
Am I a good candidate for a dental bridge?
Will my dental bridge look natural?
Absolutely. Our bridges are designed to match the color, shape, and size of your natural teeth, ensuring a seamless and aesthetic appearance.
How does a dental bridge differ from dentures or implants?
Unlike dentures, which are removable, a bridge is cemented to existing teeth or implants and is not taken out. Implants require surgery and integrate with the jawbone, while bridges use existing teeth as support.

Composite White Fillings
The composite white filling is an increasingly popular alternative to the traditional silver amalgam filling. Unlike amalgam fillings, composite fillings are virtually invisible, and our team at Vail Family Dentistry can shade them according to the color of your teeth, creating a perfect match and giving you a beautiful, white smile!
Dental Bridges
Dental bridges literally bridge the gap created by one or more missing teeth. A bridge is made up of two or more crowns for the teeth on either side of the gap with a false tooth in between. Made from gold, alloys, porcelain, or a combination of these materials, bridges restore your smile, prevent further tooth misalignment, and help you chew comfortably.
Bonding
Dental Bonding is among the easiest and least expensive cosmetic dental procedures. The resin used in bonding can be shaped and polished to match the surrounding teeth. Bonding benefits both your oral health and improves your appearance by repairing damage, minor flaws, and irregularities in the surface of your teeth. This process is a wonderfully effective and affordable way to make cosmetic improvements to your smile.
Veneers
Many patients choose veneers as a custom-made option to make their smile sparkle naturally when they want to have a smile that is more vibrant.
Veneers entirely cover the damaged tooth with a long-lasting hard coating that enables it to nearly resemble the color of natural teeth, making them one of the most popular cosmetic dental procedures. Dental veneers are used to fix chipped, stained, misaligned, worn down, uneven or abnormally spaced teeth.
