Bridges
A More Natural Solution
A dental bridge is a custom-made false tooth or teeth that is placed permanently between two healthy teeth, filling in the area left by a missing tooth or teeth. The bridge is held in place by porcelain crowns placed on the healthy teeth on each side of the space that is to be filled. A bridge created by a holistic dentist like Dr. Barreto is completely metal-free. As a result, this bridge absorbs light just as natural teeth do, to create a beautiful, natural-looking smile. More importantly, bridges reduce the risk of gum disease, help correct some bite problems and help improve speech.
