In the mouth, a bridge serves the same purpose as on the road. It “bridges a gap” to maintain the structure of your mouth.

A bridge not only replaces a tooth (or teeth) that is missing, but also helps to maintain the shape of your face. It makes chewing food easier, as well as aids in speaking if the missing tooth (teeth) has caused a problem with speech.

The bridge is also dependent on a healthy foundation, so it is important that you maintain frequent and regular dental checkups and good dental hygiene.

Call us at 952-473-4900 or send us a note on the Request Appointment page if you have a missing tooth and want that great smile back. Wayzata Dental & SmileSpa is conveniently located if you are in the Shorewood, Orono, Navarre or Excelsior area.

We’ve got just the thing – video goggles that plug directly into your ipod.  Watch your favorite episode of The Office, catch up on Lost, whatever you want, all while having your teeth cleaned at Wayzata Dental.
