Contact UsWhat Are Dental Bridges?
If one or more of your teeth has fallen out, it's not just a problem with appearance. The subsequent gaps in your teeth may cause other teeth to shift. This may result in unnecessary tension in your bite, pain when you chew, or even trouble speaking. A bridge improves the health and appearance of your mouth by covering spaces with a false tooth that is supported by either your natural teeth, dental implants, or both. At Savannah Smiles Dental in Schertz, TX, we offer dental bridges with top-quality materials to help give you back your smile. If you are missing one or more teeth, schedule a consultation with Dr. Cassandra Garcia to learn about your restoration options with a custom dental bridge.

Am I a Good Candidate for a Dental Bridge?
You may be a candidate for a dental bridge if you have any missing teeth since they are not just an appearance problem, but missing teeth can heavily impact your oral health as well. Your mouth is balanced carefully and a missing tooth can affect its function. Over time, a missing tooth can lead to teeth shifting, creating problems with your bite (overbite, underbite, crossbite), and atrophy of the gums and jawbone. To place a bridge, the surrounding teeth must be strong enough to hold the restoration, with sufficient density in the jawbone and gum tissue. Dr. Garcia will examine your teeth, gums, and jaw at your exam and consultation to help you select the best bridge type (cantilever, traditional, Maryland bonded, or resin bonded) and material (porcelain, ceramic, porcelain fused to metal, and metal).
What Can I Expect from Dental Bridges?
Once your teeth are filed down in preparation, Dr. Garcia will take digital images and impressions of your teeth so your custom bridge can be created. If needed, a temporary bridge or restoration may be used while your custom one is crafted. As soon as your dental bridge is ready, the treatment areas of your mouth may be prepped with a numbing agent. Stronger anesthesia or other sedation options may be discussed if you have anxiety or trouble with a gag reflex to help keep you calm during the placement. Your bridge will either be cemented into its position or attached to implants based on the method you and Dr. Garcia selected at your consultation. The position of the bridge will be adjusted so it feels right and stable in your mouth.
Savannah Smiles Dental Reviews
The transition from retiring Dr Durnford to new ownership for Savanah Smiles Dental has been seamless and flawless from my perspective. New staff are friendly and absolutely professional. I don't particularly enjoy dental visits, but Dr Garcia put me at ease right away. She has an affable personality and she exudes confidence and professionalism. Robert, the dental tech who conducted my cleaning, was exceptional and we had a lot in common. It was like running into an old friend you haven't seen for awhile. He took care of my teeth and did a wonderful job. This is the place to come for your dental needs!
