Dental Bridge Treatment FAQ
Have you experienced tooth loss? If so, there’s never been a better time to schedule an appointment with one of our dentists in Grandville, MI. During your consultation, they’ll be able to help you explore your tooth replacement options and determine if you’re a candidate for dental bridge treatment.
While you wait to see one of our dentists, here’s what you need to know about the dental bridge procedure. Please don’t hesitate to contact our dental office in Grandville, MI, if you have any questions or would like to set up an appointment.
What are Dental Bridges?
A dental bridge is a prosthetic tooth that’s anchored in place by crowns on both sides. These crowns may be placed on either titanium dental implants or prepared natural teeth. The result is a beautiful smile you’ll be happy to show off to the world!
Keep in mind that a dental bridge is just one of the many tooth replacement options we offer at our practice.
How Can I Benefit from a Dental Bridge?
Unlike a partial denture, a porcelain dental bridge is a permanent restoration that’s anchored in place. This means that you’ll be able to smile, eat, talk, and laugh with complete confidence. No slippage here!
A dental bridge will blend in perfectly with the rest of your smile. In fact, no one will be able to even tell you had the dental bridge procedure in the first place! Our dentists will ensure that your bridge is a perfect match to the color and translucency of your natural teeth.
Am I a Candidate for Dental Bridge Treatment?
You may be a candidate for a dental bridge if you have one missing tooth that’s between two healthy teeth. Likewise, candidates for an implant-supported dental bridge may have as many as three missing teeth in a row. For these candidates, they would typically receive two dental implants to support the new prosthetic tooth and adjacent crowns.
Candidates for dental bridge treatment have typically experienced significant tooth decay or oral injury. For this reason, a dental bridge may be a part of a larger smile makeover. That way, our dentists can help you improve the health, function, and aesthetics of your smile.

If you’re interested in getting a dental bridge, your next step is to call our office to schedule an appointment. From there, one of our dentists will be able to examine your smile, take X-rays as necessary, and recommend a course of treatment that’s tailored to your unique needs.
