Sometimes gum disease, injury, decay or simply wear results in the loss of a tooth.
A large gap in your smile left uncorrected, can create significant problems for your dental health. Over time your bite pressure may shift to other parts of your mouth to compensate for an inability to efficiently chew in the area of the missing tooth.
Porcelain bridges literally “bridge the gap” in your smile. Drs. Wright, Luckenbaugh, and Townsend create a natural, functional bridge to correct your smile and to restore your bite!

The Dental Bridge Procedure
A porcelain bridge utilizes the teeth on both sides of the gap as its supportive structure. After some preparation of the two neighboring teeth, crowns are created for them.
A prosthetic tooth (or pontic) is then fused between the crowns to fill the gap. A bridge is a cemented dental restoration, meaning it can only be removed by a dentist, so you can rest assured that your porcelain bridge will be a lasting restoration to your oral health.
