Restore Function and Appearance with Permanent Solutions

Missing teeth can affect more than your appearance—they can impact your ability to chew, speak, and maintain proper alignment in your bite. At East Van Family Dental, we offer porcelain fixed bridges as a dependable, long-lasting solution for replacing one or more missing teeth. These restorations are securely bonded in place and carefully crafted to look and feel just like your natural teeth.

What Is a Porcelain Fixed Bridge?

A porcelain fixed bridge consists of one or more artificial teeth (called pontics) anchored by crowns on the natural teeth or implants next to the gap. The entire restoration is cemented into place, making it a permanent part of your smile. Porcelain is the material of choice for many patients because it offers both strength and lifelike aesthetics. It reflects light like natural enamel and can be color-matched to your existing teeth for a seamless appearance.

Why Choose a Fixed Bridge?

A fixed bridge is more than just a cosmetic fix—it restores critical function and helps preserve your long-term oral health. Benefits include:

• Permanent, stable solution – No need for removal like dentures
• Restores chewing and speaking ability
• Prevents neighboring teeth from shifting out of alignment
• Maintains the shape and structure of your face
• Blends beautifully with your natural teeth

Porcelain bridges are especially ideal for visible areas where appearance matters most, offering a natural look that boosts confidence.

What to Expect

The process usually requires two or more visits. During the first appointment, we prepare the supporting teeth (or implants) and take impressions to design your custom bridge. You’ll receive a temporary bridge to wear while the permanent one is being made. Once your porcelain bridge is ready, we’ll ensure it fits comfortably and looks natural before permanently bonding it in place. We’ll also provide guidance on how to care for your bridge to keep it in excellent condition.
