Dental Bridges

Dental bridges are a common and practical option when you have one or more missing teeth.
Our dentist, Dr. Brad A. Walker, will create a custom bridge to fit the shape of your mouth, help restore the functionality of your teeth, and restore the brilliance of your smile.

The Process

The dental bridge is anchored in place through the use of two dental crowns placed on existing natural teeth or dental implants. These crowns hold the artificial teeth in place. This ensures that your restoration will not easily shift or loosen. This is a very customized procedure - the restorations are created in a lab from the dental impressions made in our office. It requires two visits in order to complete a dental bridge.

Dental bridges are designed to last for many years and to restore the function, beauty and health of your smile. Dr. Walker may recommend a dental bridge in order to:

Restore your ability to speak, eat and chew normally
Alleviate excess stress on the bite
Improve the shape and volume of your face
Replace an unwanted removable partial denture
Prevent the remaining natural teeth from moving out of position
Enhance the appearance of your smile

We will help you determine whether a custom dental bridge is the right choice for you after a thorough exam and consultation. For more information, please call 408-445-4444 to schedule an appointment with Dr. Walker.
