Dental Bridges Las Vegas

Are you missing a tooth and want to love your smile again? A dental bridge might be the answer!

Bridges fill the gap created by one or more missing teeth and consist of two or more crowns (abutment teeth). Your dentist will take impressions of your mouth to custom make a bridge for seamless integration, allowing easier chewing and proper bite. The teeth on either side of the missing tooth will be prepared in the same way a crown is fitted and may be supported by either a natural tooth or a dental implant. Your dentist will give you the at-home care knowledge to ensure your bridge is effective and long-lasting.

If you want to take your smile back and think a dental bridge could help, contact us today to schedule your consultation!

Benefits of Dental Bridges

Dental bridges effectively replace missing teeth, restoring both function and appearance. Our practice provides high-quality dental bridges to help you regain a confident smile and maintain your oral health. A dental bridge could be the perfect solution if you have tooth gaps due to tooth loss.

Restores Functionality

Dental bridges restore your ability to chew and speak correctly, improving oral function.

Aesthetic Improvement

They provide a natural-looking solution that enhances your smile and confidence.

Prevents Teeth Shifting

By filling the gap, dental bridges prevent remaining teeth from drifting out of position, leading to bite problems and other issues.

Durable and Long-Lasting

With proper care, dental bridges can last many years, providing a reliable and durable solution for missing teeth.

How Do Dental Bridges Work?

Here’s a step-by-step overview of how dental bridges work:

  1. Consultation and Assessment: During your initial visit in Las Vegas, we will evaluate your dental needs and determine if a dental bridge is the right option for you.
  2. Preparation: The teeth adjacent to the gap (abutment teeth) are prepared by removing a small amount of enamel to make room for the crowns.
  3. Impressions: We take impressions of your teeth to create a precise mold for your custom bridge.
  4. Temporary Bridge: While your permanent bridge is being made, a temporary bridge is placed to protect your teeth and gums.
  5. Placement: Once the custom bridge is ready, it is securely placed and adjusted to ensure a comfortable fit and natural appearance.

Dental Bridge vs. Implant

Patients in Las Vegas often wonder about the differences between dental bridges and dental implants. While both are effective solutions for replacing missing teeth, they have distinct advantages:

Dental Bridge

Ideal for patients who prefer a quicker solution, dental bridges do not require surgery and are completed in a few visits.

Dental Implant

Dental implants involve a surgical procedure and provide a more permanent solution that mimics the natural tooth root. They can last a lifetime with proper care.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Is a Bridge?

A bridge is a restorative appliance that uses multiple crowns linked together to replace a missing tooth. A minimum of two crowns are attached on either side of a false tooth, referred to as a pontic. Bridges are categorized according to the number of teeth they replace. The most regular is a three-unit bridge, which makes use of two teeth as anchors for one replacement tooth. A bridge is a relatively quick method to replace a missing tooth, requiring only a few weeks for its fabrication. Bridges are permanently secured onto the anchor teeth; the patient cannot remove them. A bridge offers an alternative tooth replacement option to a dental implant.

What Is a Crown?

A crown is a restorative appliance that completely covers a tooth with artificial material. Crowns can be manufactured from different materials, like porcelain, ceramic, gold, a tooth-colored metal called zirconia, or any combination of these. The chief purpose of a crown is to restore the tooth to its normal shape and function. And consequently, it will replace any missing tooth structure, reinforce and fix any cracks, and stabilize weakened teeth.

What Is the Process for Placing a Crown and/or a Bridge?

Both crowns and bridges are placed through similar processes At Red Rock Dental. First, the teeth will be numbed and then the tooth (or teeth in case of a bridge) will be prepared. This is done by shaving the outer layer of enamel to make space for the covering material. Then a digital impression of the prepared teeth is taken and sent to the lab for its fabrication. While waiting for your appliance, you can wear a temporary crown or bridge made from a plastic material. Once the permanent restoration is ready, you will have to return to our dental office for its fitting. We will confirm the perfect fit of both crowns and bridges with a detailed evaluation, including an X-ray. Once satisfied, we will use permanent cement to attach it to your tooth or teeth. After we fix the final crown or bridge, you should be able to immediately return to your normal routines. If a bridge replaces a tooth that has been missing for a long time, you may have to go through an adjustment period for your lips, cheeks, and tongue.

How long does a dental bridge last?

With proper care and maintenance, dental bridges can last between 5 to 15 years or even longer.

Are dental bridges noticeable?

Dental bridges are designed to look natural and blend seamlessly with your existing teeth, making them virtually unnoticeable.

How do I care for my dental bridge?

Maintain good oral hygiene by brushing twice a day, flossing daily, and visiting your dentist regularly for check-ups and cleanings.
