Dental Bridges in San Antonio, TX

A practical and effective solution for replacing missing teeth, a dental bridge brings back the natural look and function of your smile. Bridges at 5 Star Dental Group are custom-made to fit comfortably and securely in your mouth, blending in with your natural teeth and closing gaps left by missing ones. They are usually created with porcelain or ceramic materials that look just like real teeth, which means they help restore both appearance and function. For patients who want a quick yet lasting option to regain their smiles, a fixed or permanent bridge can be an ideal choice. For a restored smile, contact our team in San Antonio, TX for results that will make you look great and make chewing and speaking easier.

The first step in getting a dental bridge involves an initial consultation to determine the best approach, considering factors like the number of missing teeth and the health of the surrounding teeth. Our team will prepare the anchor teeth for the crowns by reshaping them slightly to ensure a snug fit for the bridge. Temporary bridges may be placed initially while your permanent bridge is being custom-made. Typically, a dental bridge involves two or more crowns that anchor onto the surrounding teeth with one or more artificial teeth (called pontics) in between. The crowns attach to the teeth next to the gap, securing the bridge in place and ensuring stability. In some cases, patients might opt for a combination of bridges and implants for a seamless look and feel across multiple missing teeth. There are some differences between dental bridges and implants. While both replace missing teeth, dental bridges are typically quicker to place and don't require surgery. Implants, on the other hand, involve a minor procedure to insert an artificial tooth root for additional stability and are often used when a single tooth is missing or when no healthy surrounding teeth are available to support a bridge.

Many patients appreciate that bridges are a simple, nonsurgical option that still delivers excellent, reliable results. Dental bridges from 5 Star Dental Group in San Antonio, TX can:

  • Provide a reliable and prolonged tooth replacement option
  • Revive proper chewing and speaking capabilities
  • Keep existing teeth from moving out of position
  • Distribute bite forces evenly to support your natural teeth
  • Need very little upkeep
  • Uphold the facial muscles, preserving a healthy look
  • Increase confidence and elevate total wellness
  • Boost your smile's appearance by closing spaces
