Dental Bridges

At Deborah A. Flynn-Nyktas, DMD, we offer high-quality dental bridges to help restore your smile and improve your oral health. Dental bridges are effective appliances designed to fill gaps caused by missing teeth. These gaps can lead to serious oral health issues, such as shifting teeth, difficulty chewing, and even problems with speech. Our Summit NJ dental office is proud to provide personalized dental bridge solutions tailored to meet your unique needs. 

What Are Dental Bridges?

Dental bridges consist of a false tooth, known as a "pontic," held in place by dental crowns on the adjacent teeth, known as "abutments" or "anchor" teeth. This structure not only fills the space left by a missing tooth but also helps maintain the alignment of your remaining teeth. At our Summit NJ dental office, we typically use porcelain crowns for a natural appearance that blends seamlessly with your smile.

The Dental Bridge Procedure

The process of getting a dental bridge usually requires two visits to our Summit NJ dental office. During your first visit, Dr. Flynn-Nyktas will carefully prepare the anchor teeth by filing them down to make room for dental crowns. Impressions of your teeth will then be taken to create a custom bridge that fits perfectly. To protect your teeth and maintain your smile's appearance between visits, you will receive a temporary bridge.

At your second visit, the temporary bridge will be removed, and your permanent dental bridge will be placed. Dr. Flynn-Nyktas will ensure that the bridge fits comfortably and functions properly. Additional visits may be scheduled to fine-tune the fit and ensure your bite feels natural.
