What are dental bridges?
Dental bridges are custom-made restorations used to replace one or more missing teeth by anchoring artificial teeth to adjacent natural teeth or implants. At Richmond Implant & Smile Studio, we offer both traditional and implant-supported bridges to restore your smile’s function, strength, and appearance.
Dental bridges are ideal for filling gaps, maintaining facial shape, and preventing remaining teeth from shifting. The process typically involves two visits—one for tooth preparation and digital impressions, and a second for the precise placement of your bridge—ensuring a stable, natural-looking result.
Who's a candidate for a dental bridge?
Dental bridges are ideal for patients who have:
One or more missing teeth in a row
Healthy natural teeth or implants to support the bridge
Difficulty chewing or speaking due to missing teeth
Shifting or drifting of surrounding teeth
A desire to restore the appearance and function of their smile
- Missing tooth site with sever bone loss, where the patient doesn’t want to wait a long period to receive a tooth restoration.

The Treatment Process (Average span: 1-2 weeks)
Appointment 1
Consultation
Free consultation and 3D imaging (CBCT scan). We’ll review your needs, discuss available treatment options, and create a customized plan just for you.
Appointment 2
Work up
During this visit, we’ll complete your treatment consent forms, review financial arrangements, take intraoral scans and pre-operative photographs, and provide you with detailed pre-op instructions. If everything is in place financially and you’re ready to move forward, we can combine this with your first visit—so you can choose your surgery date without delay.
Appointment 3
Teeth preparations + temporaries
On this visit, we prepare the teeth, scan the teeth, and place a temporary bridge which are a template of the final restoration. If you approve the look of your temporaries, we will make the finals to resemble the shape of your temporaries, with improvements. You will also get to pick a your desired color for your finals. We’ll see you in 1 week to deliver your final bridge!
Appointment 4
Delivery Appointment
On this visit, we remove the temporary bridge and clean your teeth to eliminate any remaining temporary material. We then try in the new restoration so you can approve the appearance before moving forward with the final cementation. Once we have your approval, we cement the final bridge and carefully remove any excess cement from around the teeth.
Congratulations on your new smile!

Frequently Asked Questions
How long do dental bridges last?
With good oral hygiene and regular checkups, dental bridges can last 10–15 years or longer.
Is the procedure painful?
Most patients experience minimal discomfort. Local anesthesia is used during preparation, and any post-procedure sensitivity usually subsides quickly.
Can I eat normally with a dental bridge?
Yes. Once your bridge is in place and you’re used to it, you can chew and eat normally. It’s best to avoid very hard or sticky foods that could damage the bridge.
How do I take care of my dental bridge?
Maintain excellent oral hygiene by:
Brushing twice daily
Flossing under the bridge (using floss threaders or water flossers)
Visiting your dentist for regular cleanings and exams
How do bridges compare to implants or dentures?
Bridges are fixed and faster than implants but require alteration of adjacent teeth. They’re more stable and natural-looking than removable dentures, though implants are typically the longest-lasting solution.
