Dental Bridges

You’ve had impeccable oral hygiene all your life. Yet, here you are missing a tooth, maybe even more than one. Perhaps a dental bridge is the answer for you. Come in for a consultation with our team of experienced, skilled dental professionals and let us restore your smile as well as your confidence with dental bridges in Naples, FL.

What Is a Bridge?

A bridge is a dental restoration that bridges the space left by one or more missing teeth. It’s made of two crowns or implants for the teeth on either side of the space (abutment teeth) and a new manmade tooth or teeth in between. These artificial teeth are called pontics and are usually made of porcelain, gold, alloys, or a combination.

Unprecedented. Perfection. Star Ship Enterprise environment. Never seen anything like it and I've seen a lot. I'm the absolute worst dental chicken and I had zero fear...and I appreciate that. BayView Dental Arts is the gold standard if that's what you are looking for. King S.

Types of Dental Bridges

After consulting with you, we’ll recommend the type of dental bridge in Naples that’s best for you. We offer three types of bridges to suit whatever configuration your missing tooth has created:

Traditional

This is the most common type, used when you still have teeth on either side of the opening. For this type of bridge, we create crowns for the abutment teeth and attach a bridge made of either ceramics or porcelain fused to metal to each crown.

Cantilever

We use this type if you have abutment teeth on only one side of the opening.

Maryland-Bonded

Also called a resin-bonded or Maryland bridge, we make this bridge of plastic teeth and gums supported by a metal framework.

The Benefits of Dental Bridges

If you’ve been living with the pain of a bad tooth or feel self-conscious about the gaps left by missing teeth, a dental bridge offers an affordable way to restore comfort and confidence. Our Naples dental bridges are a modern alternative to partial dentures and offer the following advantages:

Restored Confidence: A dental bridge renews your smile with natural-looking teeth that blend seamlessly, helping you feel like yourself again.
Improved Function: With a bridge in place, you can chew, bite, and speak comfortably and effectively, just as you would with natural teeth.
Preserved Facial Shape: By filling gaps, bridges maintain the natural contours of your face, preventing the sunken appearance that can follow tooth loss.
Balanced Bite: Bridges distribute your bite evenly, protecting surrounding teeth from excessive wear or shifting.
Prevention of Tooth Movement: Filling gaps keeps your remaining teeth in proper alignment, supporting long-term oral health.

FAQs Dental Bridge

How long do dental bridges last?

With proper care, dental bridges typically last 10–15 years or longer. Good oral hygiene and regular check-ups can extend their lifespan.

Do dental bridges look natural?

Yes. Bridges are crafted from high-quality materials such as porcelain to match your natural teeth's shape, size, and color for a seamless appearance.

Can I eat normally with a dental bridge?

Absolutely. Once your bridge is placed, you can enjoy most foods comfortably. We recommend avoiding overly hard or sticky foods that may damage the restoration.

What’s the difference between a dental bridge and an implant?

A bridge relies on adjacent teeth for support, while implants are anchored directly into the jawbone. During your consultation, we’ll recommend the best solution for your needs.

How do I care for my dental bridge?

Daily brushing, flossing with a floss threader or water flosser, and routine dental visits will keep your bridge clean and functioning beautifully for years.
