Porcelain Fixed Bridges in Houston, TX

Getting a fixed dental bridge typically takes two or more visits to the dentist. During the first appointment, the teeth on either side of the gap (called the anchor or abutment teeth) are numbed, and a small portion of the enamel is carefully removed to make space for the crowns. Then, we take a detailed impression of your teeth, which is sent to a trusted dental lab to custom-fabricate your porcelain bridge.

While your final restoration is being made, you’ll wear a temporary bridge to protect the area and maintain function. At your second visit, we’ll ensure the fit, shape, and color of the permanent bridge are just right—making any small adjustments for comfort or bite alignment. In some cases, your porcelain bridge may be temporarily cemented to allow your teeth and gums to adjust before we place it permanently.

Once finalized, your bridge will be securely bonded into place, restoring both aesthetics and function. After placement, you’ll receive detailed instructions on how to care for your bridge, along with tips to help extend its longevity. With proper home hygiene and regular checkups, our porcelain bridges in Houston can give you years of confident smiling and dependable performance.
