Getting a dental bridge typically requires two or more visits to our Lansdale, PA office. At our restorative dentist in Lansdale PA, the process begins by gently preparing the two anchoring teeth while the area is numb. A small portion of enamel is removed to allow room for crowns that will support the bridge. We then take highly accurate impressions, which are sent to a dental laboratory where your custom bridge is fabricated. A temporary bridge is placed and worn for several weeks until your next visit.
During your second appointment, your permanent bridge is carefully evaluated, adjusted, and cemented to ensure proper fit, comfort, and bite alignment. In some cases, the bridge may be temporarily cemented to allow your teeth and gums time to adapt before final placement. Dental bridges are a trusted solution for replacing missing teeth, though some patients may also consider dental implant tooth replacement in Lansdale PA as an alternative, depending on their needs and oral health.
Maintaining good oral hygiene habits—including brushing, flossing, and routine dental visits—helps extend the lifespan of your permanent bridge and supports long-term oral health.
