Dental Bridges in Amherst, NY

A dental bridge is a common, effective solution for replacing one or more missing teeth. By anchoring a false tooth (or teeth) between two crowns on the healthy teeth adjacent to the gap, a bridge helps restore both function and appearance. Once placed, the bridge is fixed in your mouth. It isn’t removable like dentures.

If you have missing teeth, a dental bridge can help you reclaim a confident smile and enjoy normal eating and speaking. Here at Dr. Stephen Fabiano’s office in Amherst, NY, we’ve helped countless patients fill gaps in their smiles with long-lasting, natural-looking dental bridges.

A dental bridge may be right for you if...

You are missing one or more teeth in a row.

The surrounding teeth are healthy enough to support crowns.

You’re looking for a non-removable, long-lasting alternative to partial dentures.

You want a faster solution than implants or need to address adjacent teeth that also require crowns.

Benefits of a Dental Bridge

Natural Look and Feel – High-quality porcelain or ceramic materials blend with your smile.
Improved Function – Enjoy chewing, speaking, and smiling with confidence again.
Prevents Shifting – Missing teeth can cause neighboring teeth to shift out of place; a bridge keeps your alignment stable.
Long-Lasting Solution – With proper care, your dental bridge can serve you well for 10–15 years or more.
Facial Support – Filling the gaps helps support your facial structure and preserve a youthful appearance.

What to Expect During the Procedure

1. Initial Consultation and Exam

Dr. Steve will examine your teeth, gums, and overall oral health. We’ll take x-rays or use digital scans to plan out the precise fit of your bridge.

2. Tooth Preparation

The adjacent teeth will be gently shaped and prepared to receive crowns. This involves removing a small amount of enamel to ensure a snug, custom fit.

3. Impressions and Temporary Bridge

We’ll take impressions (or digital scans) of your prepared teeth to create your permanent restoration. Meanwhile, you’ll receive a temporary bridge to protect the area and maintain function and appearance.

4. Customized Fabrication

A trusted dental lab will craft your bridge to match the shape, color, and contour of your existing teeth, ensuring a seamless blend with your smile.

5. Final Fitting and Cementation

Once your permanent bridge is ready, Dr. Steve will check it for comfort, fit, and aesthetics. With your approval, the bridge is then cemented in place—restoring your smile instantly.
