Eric was very helpful with the consultation afterwards.
I was scared out of my mind since I did not grow up going to the dentist due to no insurance. I made sure that I went & took my children once I was older. Although I made sure they had the care they needed & they had beautiful teeth I was still struggling. I came to Aspen dental & Dr Dominique Johnson & her hygienist really got to me. They were kind and very compassionate. Once she let me know the dental journey I had ahead I was disappointed but not surprised. She then got me with a dental financial guru named Eric who worked his magic and we were able to begin scheduling my dental journey. Now all I can do is pray that all goes well but I definitely feel more comfortable knowing that the people taking care of me look like me and truly want to help.
I am at phase one of my implant journey, and so far couldn't be happier.With the staff and the service at aspen. The Doc really knows what she's doing and makes sure to listen to any concerns or questions to make it the best experience possible. Staff was friendly and seem to genuinely care about how you're feeling. I would highly recommend aspen on university parkway.For any of your dental needs. Kristine

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.
