Dental Bridges in Pearland, Texas
Do you shy away from showing off your smile because of missing teeth? Here at Anh B. Dao, DDS & Associates, we offer custom-designed dental bridges in Pearland, TX, to seamlessly restore the gaps left by missing teeth. Our experienced dental professionals carefully design the restoration using high-quality materials so that it blends with your natural teeth and acts as a long-term replacement.
How Does A Dental Bridge Replace Missing Teeth
As the name suggests, this restoration works by bridging the gap created by one or a few missing teeth, using the surrounding natural teeth for support. The replacement teeth that fill the gap are known as pontics, while the crowns placed over the supporting teeth are called abutments.
At our dental office, we customize the shape and appearance of the bridge to closely match your natural teeth. Unlike removable dentures, bridges are securely bonded in place. This means that you can eat, speak, and smile with confidence, without worrying about your replacement teeth falling out.
Why Choose Dental Bridges at Our Practice
Among various reasons why patients love our dental bridges, some of the most notable ones include:
- Natural appearance: Our bridges are custom-crafted to blend with your natural teeth, restoring your smile and facial aesthetics.
- Permanent solution: They are fixed in place and do not slip away, offering better support and retention.
- Improved function: With a dental bridge, you can chew more easily, without the discomfort of removable options.
- No speech disturbance: Since they are securely bonded, they don’t cause any speech issues or disruption.
- Preserve bite: They help maintain the natural alignment of your bite, reducing the risk of jaw strain or misaligned teeth.
- Prevent shifting: By filling in the gap, bridges stop surrounding teeth from shifting and help maintain your facial anatomy.
