If you’re missing one or more teeth, dental bridges could be the key to restoring your smile's appearance, comfort, and function. At Sunrise Dental Care in Chattanooga, our dental bridge solutions are customized to your unique needs, blending seamlessly with your natural teeth.
Whether you’ve lost a tooth due to injury, decay, or extraction, bridges fill in the gap and help prevent shifting and bite problems. Unlike removable options, dental bridges are fixed prosthetics, anchored securely using nearby teeth or dental implants.
With our flexible scheduling (including early mornings, evenings, and even select Saturdays), we make it easy to fit restoring your smile into your routine. And if you don’t have dental insurance, don’t worry. Our transparent membership plans and wide variety of accepted insurance plans ensure that top-quality care stays within reach.
Why Should I Get A Dental Bridge?
Missing teeth can create more than cosmetic concerns. They can cause discomfort when chewing, affect speech, and even lead to other teeth shifting out of position. Dental bridges restore stability and harmony to your smile while also preventing oral health complications in the future.
More than just a functional fix, a custom dental bridge from Sunrise Dental Care supports your facial structure and confidence. Our team makes recommendations based on your health goals, not on high-pressure sales tactics. Each treatment plan is tailored around your comfort, budget, and lifestyle. The process is gentle, our care is judgment-free, and yes, we actually listen.
Restores Functionality
Dental bridges make everyday tasks like chewing and speaking feel natural again. You'll regain the ease and comfort you had with a full set of teeth.
Maintains Facial Shape
Tooth loss can cause your facial features to appear sunken. Bridges support facial tissues, helping preserve a fuller, more youthful appearance.
Prevents Teeth Shifting
Empty gaps can cause neighboring teeth to drift. Bridges help keep your alignment intact and protect your bite.
What to Expect
Initial Consultation & Personalized Planning
Your journey begins with a relaxed conversation and full evaluation at Sunrise Dental Care. We’ll take digital X-rays and impressions to understand your dental structure and recommend the bridge option that fits your goals. Whether you're replacing a single tooth or several, we build your treatment plan around your comfort, budget, and schedule. No pressure, no judgment. Just honest, friendly care.
Tooth Preparation & Temporary Bridge
Once the treatment plan is in place, the anchoring teeth are reshaped slightly to hold the new bridge. Next, we take precise molds to ensure your permanent bridge will fit perfectly. While our lab custom-designs your final restoration, we place a temporary bridge to protect the area and allow you to continue living life comfortably.
Final Placement of the Bridge
When your custom dental bridge is ready, you’ll come back for fitting and final placement. We’ll make sure the appearance, fit, and bite are exactly right. After bonding the bridge into place, we’ll give you tips to care for your new smile. Most patients are surprised at how natural their bridge feels. At Sunrise Dental Care in Chattanooga, we make sure you leave smiling with confidence.
