If you have missing teeth, it is important to replace them in order to continue chewing and speaking with ease. There are several options for replacing missing teeth. One of these is a dental bridge from Wichita Family Dental.

A dental bridge literally bridges the gap between teeth where one or more may be missing. It attaches artificial teeth to the nearby natural teeth. Bridges may be removable or permanently attached. Removable bridges can be taken out and cleaned, but fixed bridges are more stable. A dental bridge from Wichita Family Dental will support your lips and cheeks, helping you maintain your appearance.
