Implant-Supported Bridges in Lavon, TX
Implant-supported bridges can replace multiple adjacent missing teeth using dental implants as support for a bridge restoration.
Understanding your care
Support for multiple missing teeth
An implant-supported bridge is different from a traditional bridge. Rather than relying on neighboring natural teeth, dental implants provide support for the bridge that replaces multiple adjacent teeth.
The right approach depends on the number and location of missing teeth, the condition of the surrounding oral structures, and your individual treatment goals.
