Dental Bridges in Key Largo
Missing a tooth doesn’t just affect your smile, it can impact your bite, your confidence, and even your long-term oral health. At Dentistry On The Reef, we restore function and beauty with custom dental bridges designed to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth. Strong, durable, and natural-looking, a bridge can help you smile and chew with confidence again.
What Are Dental Bridges?
A dental bridge is a restorative treatment that literally “bridges” the gap left by one or more missing teeth. It consists of an artificial tooth (called a pontic) held in place by crowns on the neighboring teeth or secured with implants. Crafted from high-quality, tooth-colored materials, bridges look natural and restore both function and appearance.
