Dental Bridges

Our team offer dental bridges in Burton, MI, at Great Lakes Family Dentistry for patients who have multiple missing teeth. As a less expensive alternative to dental implants, dental bridges help restore your teeth for a fantastic new smile! Find out more information about this treatment by calling our office at 810-744-1324 and scheduling a consultation with our dentist.

If you are missing a single tooth or multiple teeth in a row, we may recommend a dental bridge to restore your smile. A bridge is a fixed dental restoration, meaning it is non-removable. The dental bridge is anchored in place through the use of two dental crowns, which are custom made to fit your smile and are placed on the teeth or dental implants next to the space left by the missing tooth. These crowns hold the artificial tooth in place to restore your smile, ensuring that your restoration will not easily shift or come loose. It typically requires only two visits to our practice to complete a dental bridge. Dental bridges are designed to last for many years and to restore the function, beauty, and health of your smile.

Our dentist may recommend a dental bridge to improve your smile by:

  • Restoring your ability to speak, eat and chew normally
  • Alleviating excess stress on the bite
  • Improving the shape and volume of your face
  • Replacing an unwanted removable partial denture
  • Preventing the remaining natural teeth from moving out of position
  • Enhancing the appearance of your smile

We will help you determine whether a custom dental bridge is a right choice for restoring your smile after tooth loss. For more information, please call or visit us today.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are dental implants safe?

Yes, dental implants are absolutely safe. They’re made from biocompatible materials to integrate naturally with your body and promote your health. The implant procedure is highly successful and complications are rare.

When you lose a tooth, your jawbone eventually weakens and leads to a myriad of issues. These include a weakened bite, increased risk for oral diseases, and decreased self-confidence, as you may begin to look older.

Dental implants are the only tooth replacement solution that can restore jawbone strength and help you look youthful.

Does insurance cover my dental implants procedure?

Many dental insurance plans cover at least part of the cost of dental implants. We recommend contacting your insurance provider if you want to know the details of your coverage. Our insurance coordinator can help you obtain the full benefits of your insurance.

If you’re concerned about the cost of dental implants, financing plans may also be an option. These plans break down your treatment bill into convenient monthly payments, so you can afford dental implants without breaking the bank.
