Dental Bridges in Rittenhouse Square

What Is a Dental Bridge?

A dental bridge is a fixed prosthetic that replaces one or more missing teeth by “bridging” the gap between remaining teeth. It typically consists of:

• Crowns placed on the healthy teeth (or dental implants) on either side
  
  
• Artificial teeth (pontics) that fill the gap and restore the smile
  
  

Bridges are custom-crafted to match the shape and shade of your natural teeth, ensuring a seamless and functional result.
