Process

Detailed Consultation and Imaging:

We evaluate your oral health and take 3D scans to plan your implant bridge precisely and accuracy.

Treatment Planning:

Based on the number of missing teeth, we determine the number of implant posts and design a fully customized implant-supported bridge.

Implant Placement:

Titanium implant posts are surgically placed into the jawbone to serve as sturdy anchors for the future bridge.

Healing and Integration:

Over the next few months, the implants fuse with the bone, creating a solid base for your new bridge.

Bridge Fabrication and Fitting:

We create and fit a custom-designed bridge that matches your natural teeth and attaches securely to the implants.

Final Adjustments and Maintenance Plan:

We ensure proper alignment, comfort, and function, then provide aftercare tips for your new bridge.

What is an implant-supported bridge?

It’s a fixed bridge that replaces several missing teeth and is anchored to dental implants, not to your natural teeth.

How many teeth can an implant bridge replace?

Commonly 2–4 teeth in a row, supported by two or more implants. The exact number of implants depends on your bone, bite, and which teeth are missing.

How is an implant bridge different from a traditional bridge?

A traditional bridge needs the teeth on either side to be filed down to hold it. An implant bridge is anchored in the jawbone, so those teeth stay untouched, and the implants help preserve bone.

Am I a candidate for an implant-supported bridge?

Most patients with healthy gums and enough jawbone are. If you’ve had bone loss, a bone graft or sinus lift may be needed first. A 3D scan and exam will tell us.

How long does the treatment take?

The implants are placed first. After healing, which typically takes a few months, the bridge is attached. Your plan will give you a timeline for your case.

How much does an implant-supported bridge cost in Houston?

The cost depends on how many teeth and implants are involved, whether you need grafting, and the materials and we give you a written estimate after your exam.

How long does an implant bridge last?

With good hygiene and regular visits, the implants can last many years, often decades. The bridge itself may eventually need repair or replacement due to wear.

When should I consider All-on-4 instead of a bridge?

If most or all of your teeth in an arch are missing or failing, a full-arch restoration is often a better fit than several separate bridges. Dr. Sanchez will compare the options for you (link to the Full Arch page).

How do I clean an implant-supported bridge?

Brush twice daily and clean under and around the bridge with floss threaders, interdental brushes, or a water flosser. Regular professional cleanings keep the gums healthy.
