Bridges in Bolingbrook, IL

A dental bridge is a permanent restoration to replace your missing teeth. It is made up of various components fused to fit into the open space where you have lost your teeth. As the name suggests, this restoration bridges the gaps between your teeth, thus giving you a beautiful smile and improving your tooth functionality.


Dental bridges have become a sought-after alternative to partial dentures. They fulfill both your practical and aesthetic needs, thus enabling you to speak better and restore your smile. They are made using various materials such as gold, alloys, and porcelain. Porcelain bridges are the choicest material as they match the appearance of your natural teeth.

What are the benefits of dental bridges?

  • Dental bridges are used to replace a single tooth or few teeth in your mouth.
  • They are an affordable option for missing teeth over other alternatives like dental implants.
  • Bridges reduce the risk associated with the consequent bite problems.
  • Dental bridges are easy to care for and maintain.


What does the procedure entail?


We will assess your teeth by performing a visual examination and also take your X-rays to gain a full understanding of your dental health. Most dental bridges rest on your healthy teeth on either side of the gap, known as abutment teeth. To prepare them for bridge placement, we will shape them. You will be given a local anesthetic to carry out this step smoothly.


After filing your teeth, we will take their impressions and send them to the dental lab to create bridges. The restoration is made in the same color as your natural teeth. In some cases, you may also need a dental implant to support the bridge. It happens when your teeth on either side of the gap are not strong enough to support the restoration by themselves.


A temporary dental bridge will be attached to your teeth while you wait for the permanent ones. This step protects your shaped teeth from damage. When your permanent bridge is ready, we will remove it and attach it to your teeth. If required, we may perform a few final adjustments and check your bite to ensure that the bridge fits you snugly.


Aftercare and follow-up play a role in maintaining the results of this restoration. Ensure to take proper care of your teeth by brushing and flossing. If taken care of properly, your bridges may last up to 10 years or more.
