Dental Bridges in Cypress, TX

A dental bridge fills the gap left by one or more consecutive missing teeth by utilizing the support of adjacent teeth. It is an excellent option for patients who have lost one or a few more teeth in the upper or lower arch and are seeking a long-lasting solution.

Conventional dental bridges are secured by healthy teeth or dental implants on both sides of the gap. The artificial teeth that fill the space are known as pontics, while the crowns that cover your natural teeth are called abutments. Because they are fixed in place, dental bridges offer excellent stability and can withstand normal biting and chewing forces.

At our Cypress clinic, we provide custom-fabricated dental bridges for the replacement of missing teeth. They help:

Restore Oral Functions

Unlike removable dentures, bridges provide a permanent solution, allowing you to chew and speak comfortably.

Improve Your Smile

By filling gaps left by missing teeth, bridges create a complete and attractive smile.

Prevent Shifting Teeth

They stop surrounding teeth from moving into the empty space, helping maintain proper alignment.

Maintain Natural Bite

By restoring your bite, bridges make it easier to enjoy your favorite foods without discomfort.

During your first visit, our dental team will examine your healthy teeth and gums to determine if a dental bridge is best for you. The treatment begins with tooth preparation, which is performed under local anesthesia.

In this step, we reshape the adjacent healthy teeth by removing a thin enamel layer. This helps create more room for secure bridge placement.

Next, we record impressions of your teeth and send them to a lab. During the wait period, which may last one to two weeks, we place temporary coverings over your prepared teeth.

When your custom dental bridge is ready, we remove the coverings and secure the restoration in place. After minor adjustments, you can leave with a fully restored smile!
