Dental Bridges
Tooth loss can take a toll on your self-image, compromise your oral function, and put your health at risk.
Jovan Prosthodontics offers dental bridges; durable, natural-looking solutions that address multiple missing teeth in a row.
Learn how master dentist Ace Jovanovski helps patients in Georgetown and Round Rock, TX, with this type of restoration.
A Closer Look at Dental Bridges
Dental bridges replace one to three missing teeth in a row and can be created from porcelain, porcelain-fused to-metal, or ceramic. These restorations consist of one or more fake teeth — called pontics — supported by crowns placed over adjacent teeth, also called abutment teeth.
What a Dental Bridge Can Do for You
Patients suffering from tooth loss turn to our dental office in Round Rock, TX, to reap the functional and aesthetic benefits of dental bridges.
Restore Your Oral Function
When you’re missing multiple teeth, it can be challenging to eat all of your favorite foods and even speak with clarity. Both traditional and implant-supported bridges let you chew without discomfort and speak clearly again.
Enhance Your Appearance
Missing teeth not only have an impact on your oral function; they can diminish how you feel about your smile and face shape. A custom dental bridge can give you a more youthful appearance and let you smile with confidence.
Depending on your oral health and other unique circumstances, your missing teeth may be best addressed with dentures as opposed to a bridge. Dr. Jovanovski will work to determine the most conservative — and effective — solution.
Different Types of Bridges Our Dental Practice Offers
We offer two dental bridge options for patients missing more than one tooth in a row. Patients considering a bridge may choose:
These bridges can replace a single missing tooth or several missing teeth in a row with pontics. Healthy teeth on each side of the gap in your smile are reshaped into abutment teeth that support the restoration. Each pontic, in addition to the supporting dental crowns, will blend seamlessly into your smile.
This type of bridge doesn't rely on natural teeth to hold the restoration in place. Instead, they incorporate dental implants. If you have multiple consecutive missing teeth and don’t want to make alterations to the adjacent natural teeth, bridges supported by dental implants may be right for you.

Nervous About Treatment? Sedation Dentistry Can Put You at Ease
We understand that some individuals may feel anxious considering a dental procedure — especially one that involves surgery, like implant placement for a bridge.
Fortunately, our practice offers nitrous oxide, oral sedation, and IV sedation to keep you comfortable. Don't let dental phobia stand in the way of doing what's best for your oral health; visit us to determine which option may be best for you.

I've been going to Dr Ace for about 3 years now. I am a transplant to the area so Dr Ace and team picked me up with somebody else having done the work. I wish I had lived in Austin years ago and known about Dr Ace. This place is great, and I've recommended them personally
