A Stable, Natural Solution for Missing Teeth
Missing teeth can affect more than just your smile—they can impact how you chew, speak, and feel every day. At Covina Dental Studio, Dr. Paul Chung provides custom dental bridges designed to restore function while maintaining a natural, balanced appearance.
Using modern materials and precise treatment planning, we create dental bridges that blend seamlessly with your surrounding teeth—helping you regain confidence in your smile, speech, and bite.
What is a Dental Bridge?
A dental bridge is a fixed tooth replacement used to fill the space left by one or more missing teeth. It is supported by neighboring teeth—or dental crowns placed on those teeth—and holds a natural-looking replacement tooth, known as a pontic, in the gap.
Dental bridges help to:
- Restore comfortable chewing and clear speech
- Prevent surrounding teeth from shifting out of position
- Maintain proper bite alignment
- Improve facial balance and overall smile aesthetics
At Covina Dental Studio, each dental bridge is custom-crafted for comfort, durability, and a seamless appearance—never bulky or artificial-looking.
Is a Dental Bridge Right for You?
Dental bridges may be an excellent solution if:
- You’re missing one to three teeth in a row
- The teeth next to the gap are healthy or already need crowns
- You prefer a non-surgical tooth replacement option
- Dental implants are not currently your preferred choice
- You want a reliable, time-tested restorative solution
Dr. Paul Chung will carefully evaluate your oral health and discuss whether a dental bridge, implant, or another restorative option best supports your long-term goals.
The Dental Bridge Process at Covina Dental Studio
Our approach focuses on precision, comfort, and long-lasting results.
Consultation & Digital Imaging
We begin with a comprehensive evaluation using digital X-rays or advanced imaging to assess the missing tooth area and the health of the surrounding teeth.
Tooth Preparation
If a traditional bridge is recommended, the adjacent teeth are gently prepared to support the restoration. Digital impressions are taken to ensure an exact, custom fit.
Temporary Bridge Placement
A temporary bridge may be placed to protect the prepared teeth and maintain appearance and function while your final bridge is being crafted.
Final Bridge Placement
Your custom dental bridge is carefully bonded, adjusted for optimal bite comfort, and polished to blend naturally with your smile.
Most dental bridge treatments are completed in two visits, offering dependable results without surgery.
