Dental Bridges in
Rochester, NY
Replace missing teeth and restore the look, bite, and function of your smile.
Restorative Dentistry
What Are
Dental Bridges?
A dental bridge is a restoration that “bridges” the gap left by one or more missing teeth. Filling that space restores your bite and keeps the surrounding teeth from drifting out of position. Bridges are designed to look and feel natural, blending seamlessly with your existing teeth.
Artificial teeth (pontics) that fill the space
Anchoring crowns placed on the teeth next to the gap, or supported by dental implants
Improve chewing and speaking ability
Durable, long-lasting restoration
Provide a stable, long-lasting solution for tooth loss
OPTIONS
Tooth Replacement
Options We Offer
A bridge is one of several ways to close a gap. Our dentists recommend the option that fits where the gap is and which teeth remain around it.
Traditional Bridge
Supported by crowns on the teeth either side of the gap, this is the most common type of bridge. It fills the space with a natural-looking replacement tooth and restores normal chewing and speech.
Dental Implants
Implants replace a missing tooth on their own, anchored in the jawbone without relying on the neighboring teeth. They are the most stable option and help preserve bone.
Implant-Supported Bridge
Anchored by dental implants for maximum stability and bone preservation. The neighboring teeth are left untouched, and the bridge stays fixed in place.
Dentures
For patients missing several teeth, dentures restore a full smile and normal chewing. We fit them as part of the same restorative plan so everything works together.
HOW IT WORKS
The
Bridge Process
Fitting a bridge takes two visits, with a temporary in place while yours is crafted.
Consultation & Planning
We evaluate your smile and recommend the most appropriate bridge type.
Tooth Preparation
If using a traditional bridge, the supporting teeth are reshaped for crowns.
Impressions
Custom impressions are taken to design your bridge.
Temporary Bridge
A temporary bridge may be placed while your permanent restoration is crafted.

How long do dental implants last?
With proper care and maintenance, dental implants can last a lifetime. The crown on top may need replacement after 10–15 years.
Is a crown or a filling better for my tooth?
It depends on the extent of damage. Small areas of decay are best treated with fillings, while larger areas or weakened teeth benefit from the full coverage of a crown.
What is full mouth reconstruction?
Full mouth reconstruction combines multiple restorative procedures to rebuild all or most of your teeth, restoring function, aesthetics, and oral health.
Do you offer same-day crowns?
We use advanced digital impression technology for precise crown fabrication. Depending on the case, some restorations can be completed in fewer visits.
