Restore Your Smile with Durable, Natural-Looking Dental Bridges
Missing one or more teeth? Anderson & Breding Dental offers custom dental bridges in Fargo to restore your smile’s appearance and function. Dental bridges are a proven solution to fill gaps caused by tooth loss, using adjacent teeth or implants for support. They not only enhance your bite and speech but also prevent surrounding teeth from shifting out of place.
Each dental bridge is carefully crafted to blend seamlessly with your natural smile and fit comfortably for long-term stability. Whether you’ve lost a single tooth or several, our team will design the right bridge to restore confidence and oral health.
What Is a Dental Bridge?
A dental bridge is a fixed appliance that literally “bridges” the gap left by one or more missing teeth. It consists of:
Pontic(s): Artificial teeth that replace the missing ones
Abutments: Natural teeth or dental implants on either side that support the bridge
We offer different types of bridges based on your needs, including:
Traditional Bridges – Anchored to crowns placed on surrounding teeth
Implant-Supported Bridges – Ideal for patients missing multiple teeth in a row
Cantilever and Maryland Bridges – Used in more specific or less invasive cases
Our Process for Placing a Dental Bridge
At Anderson & Breding Dental, the bridge process is precise, streamlined, and personalized:
1. Evaluation & Imaging – We assess your bite, teeth, and gums using digital imaging tools.
2. Tooth Preparation – If using natural teeth, we prepare abutments to receive crowns.
3. Impression & Lab Work – We take a mold to create a bridge that matches your exact smile.
4. Temporary Bridge – You’ll wear a short-term bridge while your permanent one is made.
5. Placement & Adjustment – Once ready, we cement the bridge and make necessary bite adjustments.
In some cases, bridges may be part of a larger restorative treatment plan alongside crowns, implants, or dentures.
