Hello, Cary smiles! Do you have a missing tooth that is detracting from your otherwise nice teeth? Let Cary Family Dental fill the gap for you and help you get your remarkable smile back! A dental bridge could be the perfect solution for your missing tooth and help you chew and speak properly.

A bridge includes two or more crowns on either side of the gap created by your missing tooth. These two anchoring teeth permit a false tooth to be held in place where the missing tooth should be. The false tooth that is placed in the gap is called a pontic. Bridges can contain one or more pontics. A pontic can be matched to the surrounding teeth if you elect a porcelain material. If you’d like, a pontic can also be created using gold or an alloy.

Dr. Acton will work closely with you to make sure that your bridge has a perfect fit. Then one of our skilled hygienists will show you how to clean under and around the bridge to ensure that no tooth decay develops in the nooks and crannies.

Dr. Acton has been successfully restoring smiles since 2003. Thousands of patients have trusted Cary Family Dental with their dental health.

Come see us at Cary Family Dental and you can bridge the gap and love your smile again!
