Restoring Your Smile with Dental Bridges
in Arlington, VA
What Are
Dental Bridges?
At Cusumano and Stuver, we specialize in restorative dentistry and offer dental bridges to restore the health and appearance of your smile. Dental bridges are a highly effective restorative solution used to replace one or more missing teeth. They are typically composed of a porcelain pontic to replace the missing tooth which is connected to the abutments, or anchoring teeth. Each bridge is custom-made to ensure a seamless integration with your natural teeth, not only restoring the function of your bite but also the aesthetic appeal of your smile.

The Dental Bridge Procedure
At Cusumano and Stuver, our approach to dental bridges begins with a deep understanding of your unique dental needs and a commitment to restoring your smile with precision and care. Here’s how our dedicated team, led by our experienced dentists, will guide you through the dental bridge process:
1
Consultation and Examination
During this initial consultation, our team will assess your oral health and discuss the best type of bridge to suit your needs. We use the latest digital technology to take precise impressions, ensuring a perfect fit and optimal function of your final bridge.
2
Tooth Preparation
For traditional bridges, the adjacent teeth are prepared to support the crowns. If opting for implant-supported bridges, the implant posts are surgically placed into the jawbone.
3
Temporary Bridge Placement
To protect your prepared teeth and maintain your dental function, we will fit a temporary bridge while your custom bridge is being crafted. This not only keeps you comfortable but also allows you to adjust to the feel of your new bridge.
4
Permanent Bridge Fitting
Our doctors will carefully place the bridge, make any necessary adjustments, and then permanently bond or secure it. This step is crucial for ensuring that your new bridge feels natural and functions seamlessly with your bite.
