We first numb the area with a local anesthetic. This helps to make the procedure as comfortable as possible for you. The next step is to file down the two surrounding teeth so that there is adequate room for the bridge itself. Impressions are taken and used to fabricate a brand new, customized bridge. The bridge will blend in seamlessly with the rest of your smile, so most people won’t even know that it’s in place. Your second visit into the office involves placing the permanent bridge. We make minor adjustments to the way that it fits, and you’ll be ready to leave the office smiling with confidence.
