Dental Bridges
A missing tooth can affect the appearance of your smile. Beyond cosmetic issues, spaces in your smile can provide extra places for plaque to accumulate and allow room for your other teeth to drift out of alignment. You may have trouble speaking clearly and may have to pass on enjoying your favorite foods. At Park Avenue Dentistry, Dr. Lester and team offer dental bridges in New Smyrna, Florida, to help you enjoy all of the benefits of a complete smile. These may be anchored in place with dental crowns or dental implants. To learn more and plan your visit with Dr. Stephen Lester, call our office at 386-423-7770.
If you are missing one or more teeth, we may recommend dental bridges as an option to restore the health, function and beauty of your smile. A dental bridge is a fixed (nonremovable) restoration that is attached with two custom-made dental crowns. This restoration is attached to your natural teeth or dental implants that are placed next to the site of the missing tooth, depending on your condition. The crowns will hold the artificial tooth in place and help ensure it stays secure over time.
Receiving a dental bridge usually takes two visits with Dr. Lester. Dental bridges can improve your oral health and quality of life in many ways, including:
- Restoring your ability to speak, eat, chew and smile with ease and confidence
- Restoring the natural volume and shape of your face
- Easing excess stress on your bite
- Preventing your other teeth from shifting from their natural position
- Giving you a full, healthy and more attractive smile that can improve your confidence
We are dedicated to helping you both maintain and restore your oral health. We understand that a healthy and full smile can make all the difference in the world. To learn more about dental bridges, please contact us today!
