Do you have a missing tooth that is detracting from your otherwise pleasant smile? At Shwarts Family Dentistry in Richardson, we can fill the gap with a dental bridge.
A bridge includes two or more crowns on either side of the gap created by your missing tooth. These two anchoring teeth permit a false tooth to be held in place where the missing tooth should be.
The false tooth that is placed in the gap is called a pontic. Bridges can contain one or more pontics. A pontic can be matched to the surrounding teeth if you choose a porcelain material. If you’d like, a pontic can also be fabricated using gold or an alloy.
Patients from Richardson, Plano, and Prestonwood come to Shwarts Family Dentistry in Richardson for bridges, complete general dentistry, and other services. Schedule an appointment today.
