Restore Your Smile With Confidence
If you're missing teeth, dentures and bridges can restore both the function and appearance of your smile. Missing or damaged teeth take a toll on your confidence and oral function—but we are here to help.
Whether you need complete dentures, partial dentures, or a bridge, our team will help restore your smile. At Bliss Dental & Orthodontics in Lubbock, TX, we focus on aesthetics, fit, and comfort. We design replacements that look natural and feel secure, and we provide proper care instructions so they last as long as possible.
Differences Between Dentures & Bridges
Dentures are removable appliances used to replace missing teeth. They are designed to fit comfortably over your gums and help restore your ability to eat, speak, and smile properly. There are two types of dentures:
- Full dentures: Replace all the teeth in a dental arch.
- Partial dentures: Fill in the spaces of multiple missing teeth, leaving the remaining natural teeth intact.
A dental bridge is a fixed restoration that replaces one or several missing teeth. It connects to healthy teeth on either side of the gap, securing the bridge in place and covering the missing teeth. Bridges are designed to be durable, functional, and natural-looking, allowing you to speak and eat with ease.
Benefits of Dentures & Bridges
Dentures & Bridges can help you achieve the smile you've always wanted and regain your confidence. With dentures & bridges, you can:
- Restore Function: Both dentures and bridges help restore your ability to chew, speak, and eat comfortably without any restrictions.
- Improve Appearance: Give you a natural-looking smile, improving your facial aesthetics and contours.
- Durable: Made from strong materials, keeping them durable and long-lasting.
- Custom Fit: Depending on your personalized needs, we create your dentures and bridges that are a perfect fit.
