Bonita Springs, FL Dental Bridge by Dr. Keith Morse

At Bonita Bay Dental, with Dr. Keith Morse, we do have removable options available, but we highly recommend fixed bridges for the most natural look, feel and function. Durable, natural-looking tooth-colored porcelain perfectly blends in with your natural teeth and can withstand the high biting and chewing forces in your mouth. Unlike traditional removable dentures, a dental bridge is a fixed option for the replacement of 1 – 2 missing teeth. The adjacent teeth on either or both sides of the missing space are prepared in the same way a crown preparation. Similarly, impressions are taken and the bridge is fabricated in a dental laboratory. The bridge is then cemented on the adjacent teeth at the next appointment. If well cared for, a dental bridge can last for 10 to 15 years.
