Dental Bridges
At Citrus Smiles, we offer durable options to restore your missing teeth and smile. If you have lost one or more teeth, we can replace them with customized dental bridges in Murphy, Wylie, Heath and Lucas TX. Dr. Aurora and his team utilize the latest equipment and techniques to provide you with a seamless restoration that perfectly blends with the natural appearance of your teeth.
Benefits of Dental Bridges
Dental bridges offer a fixed replacement if you have lost one or more teeth in a row. They utilize the support of adjacent healthy teeth of dental implants. Our high-quality dental bridges work to restore your oral health and smile by:
- Replacing the missing teeth and closing the gap between teeth.
- Enhancing the aesthetic appeal of your smile.
- Improving your oral functions, allowing you to bite, chew, and speak more comfortably.
- Preventing the adjacent healthy teeth from shifting into the missing tooth gap.
- Maintaining your natural bite and alignment.
- Supporting your facial volume and preventing premature sagging.
Treatment Process of Dental Bridges
When you visit our dental practice for tooth replacement options, we will first analyze your oral cavity to determine which treatment will work best for you. Dental bridges offer an ideal solution for those who have lost one or a few more adjacent teeth and want a fixed replacement.
If your healthy teeth are stable enough to secure a bridge, we will prepare them for this treatment.
The preparation process involves removing a thin enamel layer. This is done to ensure that the restoration fits securely without compromising your natural bite. We perform this step after injecting local anesthesia so you won’t feel pain or discomfort.
Afterward, we will record impressions of your teeth and send them to a lab where your dental bridge will be customized. In your second appointment, we will fix the restoration and perform minor adjustments. Just after two visits, you will be ready to show off your dazzling smile!

Aftercare of A Dental Bridge
Dental bridges are durable restorations that can last for several years with proper oral care and maintenance. They require a similar level of care as your natural teeth. To clean your teeth and bridge, use a soft-bristled toothbrush that is gentle on your gums. Avoid harsh or overzealous brushing as it can damage your gums and restoration.
We recommend flossing regularly, paying special attention to the areas around and beneath the dental bridge. You can use a floss threader to slide the floss across the bridge.
Although the bridge material is durable, it may crack or break under high pressure. Avoid biting inedible objects such as pencils, pens, bottle caps, etc. If any problem occurs, visit our dentist immediately for repair or replacement.
