Bridgework & Dentures

Replacing missing teeth can be accomplished in several ways: Implants, Fixed Bridgework, Removable Bridgework (Partials), and Full Dentures. Please see the Implant section for more information on this terrific alternative.

Fixed bridgework attaches to the teeth in front of and behind the missing tooth/teeth. Those teeth are prepared for crowns, a bridge is made and then it is cemented into place.

Partial dentures and complete dentures are removable; you can take them out of your mouth. They are not as stable as fixed (Cemented) bridges or implants, but they do replace the missing teeth and give you something to chew, smile, and talk with. Artificial teeth are like artificial limbs. After much practice, you can be pretty good with them, but they’re not like the originals.

We take great pride in the dentistry we provide, from the implants, to bridges, to partials and dentures. We have to be sure you have the right expectations with the right procedures. We’ll be sure to explain each option and what you can expect.

" My Life Literally Changed Because Of A Smile! I just wanted to take a few minutes to express to you my sincere gratitude for the changes that you have made in my life. It has been over three years now since I came to you and decided to go ahead and have those old, ground-down teeth of mine replaced with the pearly white veneers. As you know, I was a little bit skeptical at first but now that the procedure has been done, I only wish that I would have had it done a lot sooner. I have never been a bashful person but at the same time I was always conscience about my teeth when I would “attempt” to smile. I say attempt because I would constantly “smile” with sealed lips or I would try to find the darkest spot in a room to be introduced to strangers. In my business world my employees thought that I was always stressed-out because I would never smile. It is truly amazing how a nice set of teeth can change your attitude, your demeanor and most importantly your personal self-confidence. It is amazing as well, how differently people react to you when you greet them with a big smile on your face. It just says to them, “I’m glad to see you.” That first impression is priceless and the confidence you show translates over to the sense of trust in you, and they in turn are more apt to smile back. That is all made possible because of a positive first impression. "
