Filling in the Gap
- Reduce the Risk of Tooth
- Reduce the Cavities

All of our dental bridges are made with zirconia
This treatment plan can take two to three visits to our dental office. We will provide you with a temporary bridge that will look natural until the lab has completed the permanet bridge. All of our dental bridges are made with zirconia for excellent strength and cosmetic aesthetics.
Dental Bridge
Your teeth are designed to complement each other but when a tooth is missing, stress on the gums and oral tissue can cause potentially harmful outcomes. Gum disease, bone loss, and shifting teeth are a few of the risks you can face when you have missing teeth, but with bridges, all of this is minimized greatly.
If you are missing a tooth or several teeth, you might be suffering from problems with speech, chewing, and misalignment of other teeth.
Bridging the gap of a missing tooth is the function of this procedure. A dental bridge is designed to bridge the gap of missing teeth by attaching artificial teeth to the adjacent natural teeth called abutment teeth. To create the bridge, we place a bridge of crowns that cover the abutment teeth and bridge the gap of the missing tooth.
Then, a fixed bridge is bonded in place and can only be removed by a dentist.
Dental Bridge
On your first appointment, Dr. Nguyen will take impressions with our state-of-the-art dental scanner so that our dental lab will be able to make a dental bridge that is custom to your mouth and give you a comfortable, perfect fit because that is our goal, to have everything fit perfectly.
The doctor will then prepare the surrounding teeth by removing a part of the enamel and dentin because that is how we insure a perfect fit.
Our dental lab will then fabricate this very precisely. This takes about 2 weeks. Once we receive the fabricated bridge from the lab, you will return to our dental office and we will cement the bridge into its premiant place.
A dental clinic will offer various amounts of different materials in constructing dental bridges. Not all of these materials are created equal because many dental offices choose to use materials made in China and some show metal at the gum line and others are not the strongest material available.
Our bridges are made of the most effective material on the market, Zirconia. We like zirconia because of it is extremely strong and zirconia can be easily matched to the color of existing teeth and that is what you want in a quality dental bridge.
All of our dental crowns and bridges are made right here in Portland Oregon. We have used the same quality dental lab for years because they do an outstanding job in creating perfect crowns and bridges.
