Restore Your Smile with Custom Dental Bridges
Missing a tooth can create more than just a gap in your smile—it can affect how you chew, speak, and feel about your appearance. At Centennial Family Dentistry, we offer dental bridges in Las Vegas to restore both the function and aesthetics of your bite. A bridge fills in the space left by a missing tooth, using adjacent teeth or implants as support.
Our experienced dentists, Dr. Allen Cameron and Dr. Trevor Grandgenett, tailor each bridge to ensure a precise fit and natural appearance. Whether you're in Centennial Hills, North Las Vegas, or Summerlin, you’ll find comprehensive, compassionate care backed by advanced technology.
What Is a Dental Bridge?
A dental bridge is a fixed prosthetic device used to replace one or more missing teeth. It consists of:
- Pontic(s): Artificial teeth that fill the gap
- Abutments: Crowns or implants on either side that anchor the bridge
- Framework: Designed to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth
Depending on your case, we may recommend a traditional bridge, a cantilever bridge, or one supported by dental implants.
Advantages of Dental Bridges
Dental bridges offer a stable and reliable solution for tooth loss. They help:
- Restore chewing efficiency
- Improve speech clarity
- Prevent remaining teeth from shifting
- Maintain facial shape and jaw alignment
- Enhance smile aesthetics
For patients who are not ideal candidates for implants or prefer a non-surgical solution, bridges provide an excellent alternative.
How Are Dental Bridges Placed?
The process typically takes two appointments:
- Preparation Visit
The abutment teeth are reshaped to hold crowns. We take precise digital impressions using intra-oral scanners, and a temporary bridge may be placed. - Final Placement
Once your custom bridge is ready, we bond it in place and ensure a comfortable fit and natural look.
For same-day restorations in some cases, we may use CEREC technology, allowing you to skip the wait for your final restoration.
Is a Dental Bridge Right for You?
You may be a good candidate for a dental bridge if:
- You are missing one or more consecutive teeth
- The surrounding teeth are healthy and stable
- You’re seeking a fixed, non-removable restoration
- You want to avoid surgical procedures
In situations where surrounding teeth are compromised, we may discuss other restorative options such as full or partial dentures or implant-retained prosthetics.
Long-Term Care for Your Dental Bridge
To keep your bridge functioning well for years to come, we recommend:
- Brushing twice daily and flossing underneath the bridge
- Using a floss threader or water flosser
- Maintaining routine cleanings and exams
- Scheduling annual oral cancer screenings and evaluations
Proper care will extend the life of your bridge and support overall oral health.
FAQs About Dental Bridges
How long do dental bridges last?
With good hygiene and regular checkups, bridges can last 10–15 years or more.
Do bridges look natural?
Yes. Each bridge is custom-designed to match your surrounding teeth in shape and color, blending in seamlessly.
Are dental bridges removable?
No. Unlike partial dentures, bridges are cemented in place and function like your natural teeth.
Can I get a bridge if I’ve lost multiple teeth?
Yes, especially if the missing teeth are adjacent. If you're missing teeth in different areas, we may recommend a combination of bridges and partial dentures for full coverage.
