DENTAL BRIDGES – TULSA, OK
What Is a Dental Bridge?
A dental bridge replaces one or more missing teeth by anchoring a natural-looking artificial tooth (a pontic) to the healthy teeth or dental crowns on either side of the gap. It restores your ability to chew and speak comfortably, keeps neighboring teeth from drifting out of place, and blends in with your smile.
WHY IT MATTERS
Benefits of a Dental Bridge
A well-fitted bridge does more than fill a gap:
- Restores comfortable chewing and clear speech
- Keeps surrounding teeth from shifting
- Maintains the natural shape of your face
- Looks and feels like your own teeth
- A fixed, non-removable solution

Frequently Asked Questions About Dental Bridges
How long does a dental bridge last?
With good oral hygiene and regular checkups, a dental bridge often lasts 10 to 15 years or more.
Bridge or implant, which is better?
Both are excellent options. A bridge is faster and non-surgical, while an implant replaces the tooth root and does not rely on neighboring teeth. Dr. Hanna will help you choose based on your health, bone, and budget.
Is getting a bridge painful?
The procedure is done with local anesthetic, so you should feel little to no discomfort, and sedation options are available.
