Dental bridge in Gainesville, FL

Featured Reviews
I have been going to Aspen Dental for the last 4-5 years for minor and major dental care. I have always received excellent staff customer service and highly professional dental care. I had an appointment this month November 2017 and received the finest customer service and professional concern that I have ever experienced. I was quickly scheduled, quickly treated and handled with utmost kindness. I had my dental work done by Dr Anna Lemus DMD a new dentist to my Aspen experience. She was kind, soft spoken, beautiful and most interested in explaining things to me. I have never in my 50 years of adult life felt at peace and confident as with her. The procedure was performed quickly and perfectly. I am very impressed with her work and will return to Aspen if needs arise. The entire experience was painless and because of her and her assistant almost enjoyable. I dont write many reviews but Dr. Lemus and the customer service staff at Aspen Dental on Newberry Rd, Fl are exceptional! Respectfully, Thomas M. Elwell
Dr.Son and his assistant C.J. are the best!! Very professional and caring. I highly recommend Dr. Son. I have been to other dentist in the area and was not happy. Then I met Dr. Son, he looked at my condition, gave me options of what could be done, and listened to my concerns. I now have my smile back. I have finally found a great dentist and will recommend him to friends and family.
Aspen Dental of Gainesville,Florida is wonderful. They are not only friendly, they are caring and treat people with respect and dignity. I’m thankful for the care they are giving me.

What is a dental bridge?

A dental bridge is a long-term and natural-looking way to replace one or more missing teeth. Designed to match the shape and color of your natural teeth, a bridge helps restore your smile with a seamless look. Beyond appearance, bridges support your oral health too—making it easier to chew, speak clearly and keep your teeth properly aligned.

What types of dental bridges are there?

Not sure which bridge is right for you? The best option depends on where your missing tooth is, how healthy your teeth are, and the health of your surrounding structure.
1
Traditional, fixed bridge
This is the most common option. It uses crowns on both sides of the gap to hold the replacement tooth in place. Traditional bridges are strong and durable, making them a trusted choice for patients missing one or more teeth in the same area.
2
Cantilever bridge
Used when there is only one natural tooth next to the gap, a cantilever bridge relies on a single anchor tooth for support. While less common, it can be effective when other options are not available.
3
Maryland bridge
This conservative option attaches the replacement tooth using porcelain or metal wings bonded to the back of neighboring teeth. It requires less preparation but may not be as durable for areas that take heavy chewing pressure.
4
Implant-supported bridge
The most stable option, this type uses dental implants instead of natural teeth for support. Implant-supported bridges provide excellent strength and longevity, making them ideal for patients seeking a permanent solution.
