Whitnall Dental offers dental bridges in Franklin, WI. A bridge is a prosthetic device used to replace missing teeth. Our bridges are custom-made and crafted from the highest quality materials to ensure they look natural and provide optimal function.

What are Dental Bridges?

A dental bridge is a prosthetic device comprising two dental crowns and one or more false teeth. The crowns are placed on either side of the gap to support the false tooth in place. Bridges can replace multiple missing teeth, restore and maintain proper bite alignment, and enhance facial aesthetics.

At Whitnall Dental, we use only the highest quality materials for our bridges, such as porcelain-fused-to-metal (PFM) and all ceramic. Our PFM bridges combine strength with aesthetics, while our all-ceramic bridges provide superior, natural-looking results that last years.

Types of Dental Bridges

At Whitnall Dental, we offer several types of bridges to meet the individual needs of our patients.

Traditional Bridges – This type of bridge comprises two crowns placed on either side of the gap and a false tooth in the middle. It is securely attached to the surrounding teeth or dental implants.
Cantilever Bridges – This type of bridge is used when adjacent teeth are on only one side of the gap. The false tooth is attached to a crown securely anchored to the adjacent natural teeth or dental implants.
Maryland Bonded Bridges – This type of bridge consists of a false plastic tooth with metal wings on either side. The wings are bonded to adjacent healthy teeth for stability and support.

Our experienced dentist will recommend the best type of bridge for you based on your needs and budget. We will also provide detailed instructions on how to take care of your dental bridge so that it lasts a long time.

How Long Does a Dental Bridge Last?

With proper care and regular dental appointments, a bridge typically lasts from 5 to 15 years. Taking good care of your oral health is the best way to ensure that your bridge lasts many years. This care includes brushing twice daily with fluoride toothpaste, flossing between the teeth regularly, and visiting our office for routine check-ups and cleanings.

Is Dental Bridge Procedure Painful?

We use the most advanced techniques and materials to make your bridge procedure as comfortable as possible. During the bridge placement process, our dentist will numb the area to ensure that you feel no discomfort. After the procedure, you may experience some soreness or sensitivity, which should subside after a few days.
