Implant-Supported Dental Bridges
An implant-supported bridge is used to replace several missing teeth in the same area of the mouth. Unlike a traditional dental bridge , which is supported by crowns placed on neighboring teeth, an implant-supported bridge is anchored by dental implants.
The implants act like artificial tooth roots, creating a stable foundation for the bridge. Once the implants have healed and bonded with the jawbone, a custom bridge is attached to restore the missing teeth. This can help improve chewing ability, protect nearby teeth and create a natural-looking result.
In some cases, an implant-supported bridge may replace several teeth with fewer implant posts than replacing each tooth individually. During your consultation, our team will explain which option fits your smile, bone support and long-term oral health needs.
Benefits of Implant-Supported Bridges
If you have lost more than one tooth, an implant-supported bridge may provide strong, lasting support for your smile. Because the bridge is anchored by dental implants, it can feel more stable than some removable options and may help protect the jawbone where teeth are missing.
Across the practice, documented implant experience includes more than 11,000 implants placed, more than 4,600 implant restorations and more than 500 implant-supported or snap-in denture cases.
Benefits of implant-supported bridges may include:
- Replacing multiple missing teeth with a stable restoration
- Restoring chewing strength and bite support
- Helping prevent nearby teeth from shifting
- Supporting jawbone health in areas where teeth are missing
- Avoiding unnecessary changes to healthy neighboring teeth
- Creating a natural-looking result designed for your smile
Our team will help you compare implant-supported bridges, traditional bridges, partial dentures and other tooth replacement options so you can make an informed decision.
Multiple Tooth Replacement Options
The right treatment depends on how many teeth are missing, where they are located and how much bone support is available. For some patients, an implant-supported bridge is the best option. For others, individual dental implants, a partial denture or another restorative treatment may be more appropriate.
If you are missing only one tooth, a single-tooth implant may be recommended. If you are missing most or all teeth in an upper or lower arch, our team may discuss full-arch tooth replacement .
During your consultation, we will review your goals, evaluate your oral health and explain the benefits and limitations of each option.
The Implant Bridge Process
Your treatment begins with a consultation and exam. This may include complimentary CT imaging to evaluate your jawbone, surrounding teeth and oral structures. These details help our team determine whether an implant-supported bridge is a good fit.
If you are a candidate, dental implants are placed in the jawbone to support the bridge. The implants then need time to heal and integrate with the bone. After healing is complete, your custom bridge is attached to the implants to restore the missing teeth.
If additional treatment is needed before implant placement, such as care for gum disease, tooth decay or bone loss, our team will explain those steps before treatment begins.
Who Is a Candidate for an Implant-Supported Bridge?
Many patients missing multiple teeth are candidates for implant-supported bridges. Good candidates usually have healthy gums, enough bone to support the implants and overall health that supports healing.
If you have bone loss or other oral health concerns, you may still have options. Complimentary CT imaging helps our team understand your needs and determine whether an implant-supported bridge, individual implants, a partial denture or a more advanced implant solution would be best.
