Gaps left by missing teeth eventually cause the remaining teeth to rotate or shift into the empty spaces, resulting in a bad bite.
The imbalance caused by missing teeth can also lead to gum disease and temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders.
Bridges will:
Bridges span the space created when teeth are missing. A bridge may be recommended if you’re missing one or more teeth.
As with crowns, you have a choice of materials for bridges. Our dentist can help you decide which to use, based on the location of the missing tooth (or teeth), its function, aesthetic considerations and cost. Porcelain or ceramic bridges can be matched to the color of your natural teeth.
Contact us today and schedule an appointment with our office to get an opinion on your need for dental bridges.
Don’t hesitate to contact us to discuss any aspect of your dental health – we don’t charge for giving advice!

It's worth my family's hour travel to get the best care. Dr. Schott and his staff are wonderful.
Dr. Schott does excellent and professional dental work. I switched to him from another dentist I had been seeing for 25+ yrs!! His office staff and dental assistant couldn't be nicer... Courteous and oh so friendly!! I will continue to travel out of my way (a half an hour further) for this exceptional team, well worth it!!
Due to my past experiences with dentists I arrived with no expectations. I left with complete and utter satisfaction with the entire experience from start to finish. Everyone here was just wonderful!
Truly gentle dentistry, Dr. Schott is pleasant and personable, as are all the folks on his staff.
