Dental Bridges in Evansville, IN
Restore Your Smile with Durable, Natural-Looking Bridges
Missing teeth can compromise more than just your appearance—they can also lead to shifting teeth, difficulty chewing, and even jawbone loss over time. At TriState Family Dental Centers, we offer custom dental bridges as a trusted restorative solution to replace missing teeth and reestablish the full function and appearance of your smile.
A dental bridge fills the space left by one or more missing teeth using a prosthetic tooth anchored by neighboring teeth or implants. Our bridges are custom-crafted to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, ensuring lasting comfort and aesthetics.
What Are Dental Bridges?
Dental bridges are fixed prosthetics designed to:
- Replace one or more missing teeth in a row
- Prevent neighboring teeth from drifting out of alignment
- Restore proper bite and chewing function
- Improve facial structure by supporting the lips and cheeks
We offer several types of bridges based on your specific oral health:
- Traditional bridges – anchored by crowns on adjacent natural teeth
- Implant-supported bridges – secured with dental implants for optimal stability
- Cantilever and Maryland bridges – used in select cases where fewer supporting teeth are available
All bridge options are carefully planned to complement your dental anatomy and long-term oral health goals.
Benefits of Choosing Dental Bridges
Patients throughout the tri-state area choose TriState Family Dental for bridges because we offer:
- Personalized treatment planning by experienced restorative dentists
- High-quality materials that ensure durability and lifelike appearance
- Multiple sedation options including nitrous oxide for a relaxed experience
- Coordination with related services like dental crowns, root canals, and implant restorations
Our bridges are designed for long-term success and are often part of a broader restorative dentistry plan that may also include partial dentures or All-on-4 implant solutions.
When Is a Bridge the Right Choice?
A dental bridge may be recommended if you:
- Are missing one to three adjacent teeth
- Have healthy teeth or implants on either side of the gap
- Prefer a fixed restoration over a removable appliance
- Want a faster solution than multiple implants
Before moving forward, we conduct a detailed evaluation that may include digital X-rays to assess bone levels and supporting structures.
We also discuss the differences between bridges and alternatives like dental implants to ensure you're fully informed about your options.

Frequently Asked Questions About Dental Bridges
How long do dental bridges last?
With proper care, dental bridges can last between 7 and 15 years or longer. Regular cleanings and exams help identify issues early and extend the lifespan of your bridge.
Will my bridge look natural?
Absolutely. We use advanced materials and color-matching techniques to create a seamless fit with your natural smile. Our goal is to restore your teeth without anyone noticing you've had work done.
Is the procedure painful?
The procedure is generally well tolerated. We offer local anesthesia and mild sedation like nitrous oxide to ensure your comfort during every step.
What’s the difference between a bridge and an implant?
A bridge relies on adjacent teeth or implants to anchor the prosthetic tooth. In contrast, a dental implant is a stand-alone restoration that replaces both the tooth root and crown.
Can I combine a bridge with other procedures?
Yes. Many patients undergo bridges as part of a larger treatment plan that may include veneers, teeth whitening, or smile makeovers.
