Natural-Looking Front Tooth Replacement
Losing a front tooth can impact your appearance, confidence, and even your ability to speak or eat comfortably. At Luxe Dental Arts in Richmond, TX, we offer Maryland bridges—a conservative, non-surgical option that restores your smile naturally. Custom-crafted to blend seamlessly with your surrounding teeth, these bridges provide a beautiful, functional smile without extensive dental work.
Understanding Maryland Bridges
A Maryland bridge, also called a resin-bonded bridge, is a conservative restoration designed to replace missing front teeth. Unlike traditional bridges that require reshaping neighboring teeth for crowns, a Maryland bridge uses thin metal or porcelain “wings” bonded to the backs of adjacent teeth with strong dental adhesive.
This technique preserves healthy tooth structure while providing a secure, natural-looking replacement. The process is typically completed in just two visits, offering a long-lasting, minimally invasive alternative to more extensive procedures like implants.
During your consultation at Luxe Dental Arts, our team will evaluate your smile and determine if a Maryland bridge is the ideal solution for your needs and goals.
Why Choose a Maryland Bridge?
Choosing a Maryland bridge offers several unique advantages:
- Minimally Invasive: Preserves healthy teeth—no drilling or reshaping required.
- Natural Appearance: Color-matched to blend seamlessly with your existing teeth.
- Fast Treatment: Usually completed in just two comfortable appointments.
- Functional and Comfortable: Restores your ability to eat, speak, and smile confidently.
- Protects Surrounding Teeth: Maintains the natural structure of adjacent teeth.
Since a Maryland bridge is bonded instead of relying on crowns or implants, it’s an excellent choice for patients seeking a simple, effective solution that preserves their natural teeth.
Could a Maryland Bridge Be Right for You?
A Maryland bridge is ideal for patients missing a single front tooth who have healthy adjacent teeth and gums. It’s a great option for teens or adults who prefer a non-surgical solution or aren’t ready for dental implants.
Patients who grind or clench their teeth (bruxism) may need additional protection, such as a night guard, to help extend the life of their bridge. At Luxe Dental Arts, our team carefully evaluates your bite and oral health to create a personalized plan that ensures both comfort and durability.
