Fixed Bridgework

Fixed dental bridges include preparation and crowning of the teeth on either side of the missing teeth area where the artificial teeth have been placed. It supports artificial teeth. A non-removable appliance is the best replacement option for missing teeth. It resembles the color of natural teeth. It restores the smile and aesthetic appeal of the teeth and protects the nearby teeth from shifting. Fixed bridges are robust, long-lasting, and natural-looking restorations.

How are dental bridges placed?

Multiple visits to the dentist are required for placing the fixed bridges. The procedure involves:

  • The preparation of the adjacent teeth.
  • Impressions of the teeth.
  • The placement of a temporary bridge.
  • The final placement of the permanent bridge.

The teeth on either side are crowned to support the bridge. They are known as ‘abutment teeth.’ With the significant advancements in dentistry, bridges can now be entirely supported by dental implants. It avoids the need for preparing or crowning the adjacent natural teeth.

This dentistry is wonderful. Not only do they offer the fastest and easiest experience for dentist examinations with two children at the same time with separate technicians. They offer very friendly service. My wife and I cannot recommend them enough.

This is by far the best dentist I have ever gone to in my life. I have had a few over the years with moves and insurance changes. He is great and the staff is just as wonderful to interact with. Each of my visits, for the first time in my life, I actually look forward to going to the dentist. Thank you for your excellent customer service. Truly, recommending you to all of my family and friends.

I had a cavity filled. The staff was friendly, efficient and professional, and the procedure was quick and painless. The was my first visit to the practice after over 15 years with another dentist and I am glad that I made the change.

Best dental experience I've ever had. Dr. Copeland does great work and is honest. I cannot stress enough how much that meant to me after the string of poor experiences I've had at other offices. And the hygienist Cindy provided the most thorough cleaning I've ever had. They aren't even in my dental network but well worth the out-of-pocket expense. I would highly recommend them to anyone.

As a long time patient of Dr. Grise' she has always provided excellent care. Not only is she outstanding at what she does she also manages to treat her patients with respect and a personal touch that makes you feel like family. While the support staff and her assistant are new to me I was impressed with their professionalism as well as efficiency. Great job and team work from all. Thank you!

I would give Dr. Copeland, Mickey, and Marisela (and the rest of the staff) 10 stars if I could. Im extremely scared of the dentist because of a past experience and they made everything so easy and extremely comfortable. They couldn’t have been nicer and more gentle and it was the best experience I’ve ever had at a dentist before.
