Featured Reviews
Pleasant visit. Friendly staff. Highly recommend this place, got all my dental needs taken care of. Couldn't ask for a better Dental team and they make you feel like family not just a patient.
From the moment I walked in the doors of Aspen dental to the end of my visit I was treated fantastic! Everyone in the office is so kind and welcoming. They made me feel at ease being in a dental office and that is a rare thing. They thoroughly took the time and care to discuss any treatment rendered with me and explained everything in laments terms that I could understand . I was even able to get my treatment done the same day! I got my cleaning and extractions done same day! I had never had any dental work done before, much less a tooth pulled and was extremely terrified :( but they made me so comfortable they dimmed the lights, gave me a stress ball and set some music I enjoyed during the procedure just for me. I felt no pain and it was over before I knew it. I was putting off coming to the dentist for so long. I was scared of nothing. They went above and beyond to make sure I was relaxed and taken care of. I was truly grateful to be in such great care, I have never had a dental experience like this before! I highly recommend aspen dental to friends and family you will not be disappointed.
From the front office staff to the assistants my visit was phenomenal. The staff is absolutely amazing, very friendly and treats you like family. Very clean and comfortable office. Doctor Castillo and Doctor Shafiey are very professional and informative. The hygienist Denice was super sweet and had a gentle touch. Was able to start treatment the same day and the financial portion was super easy and affordable. I would defiantly refer my friends and family here!!
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.
