Bridges
A dental bridge is a way to replace a missing tooth. At Rock Creek Dental, we provide patients with dental bridges if they want to replace a tooth without wearing dentures or undergoing surgery. The new tooth is held in place by gaining support from the adjacent healthy teeth on either side of the gap. It looks natural and consists of a ceramic or porcelain material to match the surrounding teeth. As a cosmetic dentist, Dr. Amin will make sure that the new tooth looks and feels amazing.
