Dental Bridges
Dental Bridges Alpharetta, GA
Dental bridges are a type of dental restoration used to replace one or more missing teeth. A dental bridge consists of two dental crowns and one or more artificial teeth. Our gentle dentist, Dr. Keith Kitchens, will place the dental crowns on the teeth or dental implants adjacent to the gap in order to anchor the artificial teeth. If you are missing one or more teeth, we welcome you to contact Windward Dental Care at 770-569-7580 to learn more about dental bridges in Alpharetta, Georgia. We are dedicated to restoring your smile to optimal health, function, and beauty!
What are Dental Bridges?
If you are missing one 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 the dental bridge. Dental bridges are designed to last for many years and to restore the function, beauty, and health of your smile.
