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 teeth were yellowing and separating. The gaps between my teeth, upper and lower and I wanted to make them white again. I was a Fireman as well as a business man. It was time to spend some of the money that I had saved on me. Who says you can not take it with you. My teeth are going with me. My new smile gives me more confidence in meeting people. I walk around with a big smile on my face all the time now. If you are not happy with your smile change it. As far as the cost goes, just drive you old car another year or so and spend the money on yourself. You will have your teeth the rest of your life.
