Featured Reviews
Had to have extractions and a few other things done. All staff and doctors have been professional, helpful, and sincerely nice. I would recommend to anyone.
It took me awhile to get to do this review but I haven't forgot to let everyone at Aspen Mission Bell on N Dale Mabry how awesome they were. I was a new patient and the entire process was smooth. Everyone one that I came in contact with were amazing friendly helpful knowledgeable and caring. I had to get the rest of my top teeth pulled and 1 bottom, then I had to get top dentures and partials for the bottom. I was so depressed nervous scared. After the initial visit and going over the treatment plan and cost, I was sure I wasn't going to be able to afford all that even with insurance. The Operations Lead Shaury told me about financing options but I wasn't going to bother because I have been turned downs several times already. She encouraged me to try and once we did long and behold I was approved. So I am thankful for time and working out what was best for me. Taisha who is also upfront answering calls and greeting u when u came in was very pleasant. They were on time with apts and getting u in and out.
Now to the actual process and those all who were apart of making this transition from pulling my teeth and creating the dentures. They all were so sweet and caring and took the time to make sure the process went smooth. I was a conplete mess and being a big baby. The dentist Dr. Jain was amazing and so sweet. I didn't feel a thing and her assistant Gretchen was amazing and so supportive. I have been in several times since for adjustments and some of the other staff that helped were also amazing. Thank u Airisley and especially Joe who is definitely an expert in crafting these dentures even tho they are only the temporary. They all have made this experience awesome and worth acknowledging them all. If I forgot anyone sry just know I will definitely be referring friends and family. I love giving credit when credit is due. One love Jessica ❤️
The people there are so nice. I felt really comfortable. They took time to talk to me. I am very happy with my visit. Thank you all and keep smiling 😃
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.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.
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.
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.
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.
