Dental Bridges

We are committed to restoring your smile and improving your oral health with high-quality dental bridges. Dental bridges are an excellent solution for replacing missing teeth, helping you regain the function and aesthetics of your smile. Our experienced team uses the latest techniques and materials to ensure your dental bridge is durable, comfortable, and looks natural.

What are Dental Bridges?

A dental bridge is a fixed prosthetic device used to replace one or more missing teeth. It consists of one or more artificial teeth (pontics) that are anchored by dental crowns on the adjacent teeth (abutment teeth) or by dental implants. Bridges are custom-made to fit your mouth perfectly, restoring your ability to chew, speak, and smile with confidence.

When are Dental Bridges Needed?

Dental bridges are recommended for patients with one or more missing teeth. Missing teeth can lead to various problems, including:

Shifting Teeth: Adjacent teeth may shift into the gap, causing misalignment and bite issues.
Bone Loss: Missing teeth can lead to jawbone deterioration over time.
Chewing and Speaking Difficulties: Gaps in your teeth can affect your ability to chew food properly and speak clearly.
Aesthetic Concerns: Missing teeth can impact the appearance of your smile and your self-confidence.

The Dental Bridge Process

We ensure that the dental bridge process is smooth and efficient. Here’s what you can expect:

Consultation: Our dentist will assess your oral health, discuss your needs, and determine if a dental bridge is the right solution for you.
Tooth Preparation: The abutment teeth are prepared by removing a small amount of enamel to accommodate the crowns that will support the bridge.
Impressions: Precise impressions of your teeth are taken to create a custom-fit bridge that matches the shape and color of your natural teeth.
Temporary Bridge: While your permanent bridge is being fabricated, a temporary bridge is placed to protect your teeth and gums.
Bridge Placement: Once your permanent bridge is ready, it is securely bonded to the abutment teeth or implants, ensuring a perfect fit and natural appearance.

Benefits of Dental Bridges

Restored Function: Bridges restore your ability to chew and speak properly.
Aesthetic Improvement: A well-made bridge blends seamlessly with your natural teeth, enhancing your smile.
Preventing Shifting: Bridges prevent adjacent teeth from shifting into the gap, maintaining proper alignment.
Bone Preservation: By replacing missing teeth, bridges help preserve the jawbone and prevent bone loss.

The staff (especially Ann at the front desk) is friendly, professional, and genuinely cares about their patients. Appointments are always pleasant, and I trust this team completely. Highly recommend!

  When I was a child, I had to be sedated in order to even get into the car to GO to the dentist's office, and every visit was a white-knuckled horror in my eyes.   If Dr. Selcher had been my dentist then, my experience would have been completely different - I have never once had a painful or uncomfortable experience under his care.  I've been his patient for over 30 years, and really look forward to my visits with him and his wonderful staff (I actually fell asleep once DURING a root canal performed by Dr. Selcher!).   Even when we moved an hour away, we'd go back to Middletown to see him.  My children were raised with regular visits to his office, and always looked forward to visits with him, too (they'd even come with me to my visits so they could see everyone). I have recommended Dr. Selcher to many people; I truly believe there is no higher standard of up-to-date professional, compassionate, accomplished dental care anywhere.
